So …

I guess a “Virtual Consultant” is anyone who gives “advice” by means of  computer and/or computer network! :) .

which I guess that means that if you are providing any kind of service on the internet …

I would say that constitutes providing “advice” since the client is purchasing your service rather than doing it themselves due to some perceived expertise on your part that they are willing to pay you for, right?

And the Internet certainly is the ultimate computer network, right?! :) .

So …

This definition of a Virtual Consultant is very inclusive and applicable to almost anyone doing business via the internet, computer, etc.

And I would “bet” that if you are reading this article, then …

You are probably doing business on the internet and likely fit this definition of a Virtual Consultant, right?

So … Congratulations! :) .

You are a Virtual Consultant too after all, aren’t you?!

And you probably didn’t even know it, huh? ;) .

(if you still have any questions as to whether or not You are a Virtual Consultant, Please read more about this topic in the “Are You A Virtual Consultant?” Article at: http://www.isnare.com/?aid=3513&ca=Internet ok? )

Similarly …

“Virtual Consulting” may therefore be “defined” as:

“Performing (any type of) consulting services virtually / remotely,
e.g. via telecommuting and/or email and/or the internet, etc. vs. in
person / in house at the client’s site(s).”

and therefore by extension, a “Virtual Consulting Firm” is …

“A Consulting Firm (/ Virtual Company) comprised of Virtual Consultants providing Virtual Consulting Services virtually / remotely to clients from All over the world”! :) .

Huh?
