I decided to try the productized consulting stuff about 5 years ago. I haven't changed the landing page much - https://breue.com/

I'm happy to answer any questions.

How do you handle the expectations and communication with customers?

Given the list price for your clickable demo you could burn through that just fielding emails / calls with your clients.

This would need to be a much longer answer. But for the most part, it's through defining a clear product roadmap at the start, providing a live work in progress, as the MVP is being built, doing weekly checkin calls with Slack in between, and delicately balancing any potential scope creep.

For your second question. I don't actually do any clickable demos. Only a handful of folks ever ask for one, I tell them to use proto.io or Invision.

Oh that makes much more sense :) Does that enable you to work with multiple customers at the same time?

It looks like a fantastic business model for someone with your skillset and talent.

Yup, thankfully!

Thank you! :)

It has its ups and downs. I guess the other big factor is that I try to limit the projects I take on, to the more interesting stuff, to try to reduce any fatigue/burnout.
