I hope you are right. If you are, you have identified a potentially very, very lucrative option for a start-up. Broken markets can provide you a lot of money when you fix them.
This market is already (at least partially) covered by small consulting shops which provide sales front for competent freelancers who don't feel like doing the whole corporate networking&sales ritual.
Well, the companies I know tend to do their recruiting based on word-of-mouth recomendations - so they have to know you from some previous job or you need to be recommended by someone etc. It's a tiny sample of a couple companies though, and that probably doesn't generalize to all "small consulting shops".
