Marty,
Thanks for your writings. You have helped so many people!
Question about your thoughts on an entrepreneurship/startup idea for a one person shop. What you think about the idea of starting a recruiting agency (head hunting operation) specializing in an in-demand niche? The positives I see are: it is a service vs. selling a product, cheap start up costs, can work from home/be location independent. Cons are market saturation, and sales (rejection). But maybe the owner can hire 1099 workers to do the sales part.
Cheers!
