Being a consultant can be very rewarding as long as you don’t underestimate all the work and effort that you need to put forth to become successful at it. Consulting may look straight forward on paper, but it can be a tricky career. Consultants need to manage their clients, projects, and time at the same time. That’s in addition to taking care of their personal lives. Freelancers may have to spend a decent amount of time on the road too. Thankfully, you can use your iPhone to manage your consulting career and get more things done in less time. There are plenty of apps for freelancers in iTunes that can help make you become more productive and organized.
