If you’re thinking about stepping away from corporate life and starting your own coaching business or consulting business, you’re not alone. Maybe you’ve been laid off, burned out, or just plain fed up with working on someone else’s terms. You know you have valuable skills and experience—so why not turn them into a business that gives you more freedom, more impact, and, yes, the opportunity for more money. Maybe a lot more.

But where do you start? How do you figure out what to offer? And what’s the first move you should make before diving all in? (Spoiler Alert: It’s NOT getting a website or an LLC.)
