I really want to know how do you get started in firmware consulting roles? Are you based out of US?

Yes, I'm in the Midwest. How do you get started? Dunno. A friend knew someone who wanted some work done, introduced me to him and I guess that was how the first one got done.

I don't pursue it actively. If I see someone online who wants something built that fits my schedule, I offer to do it for them. To me, consulting is just a way to learn about new industries that I can build products for.

My focus is really on getting the product business generating a steady stream of cash instead of the small spurts it's doing right now.
