Loving the #artofgig trip is on recently. This one feels like it aligns with the "Amateurs talk about tactics, but professionals study logistics" quote. Email is where real work is done in corporate-land and aligns with clients mental models of working.

Funny how some of the best habits start out as laziness. I started writing quick-and-dirty notes to myself after consulting calls so I wouldn't have to maintain situation awareness between calls....

That said - this approach only works in the top right box of this quadrant. Trying to do this in top left will get you fired fast.

Putting it all together, here is a 2x2 of who you should hire in what situation (and/or type of books you should read if your budget is limited). My market is the smallest and therefore obviously the most interesting and elite one. So elite, some months I have *no* client work🤣

Btw this may be a category-1 level insight but there's strong kung-fu overtones to your art of gig world and I think of the top left quadrant as "hard style consulting" and top right as "soft style consulting".
