As an independent consultant, I have my own tales of woe and glory that I could talk about regularly. However, I can talk about myself any time I want to. I thought it might be more beneficial if I talked about others, or let them talk about themselves. Each interview will have the same 5 questions, and the responder can answer them any way they see fit. Every once in awhile I might add a little something beforehand, if I have anything, but overall, it will be their words.<\/p>\n
The very first person in this new interview series is Jim Yarsinsky of Expeditive<\/b>. I've known Jim for over six years, and he booked one of my first consulting assignments, a training session for a hospital system in New Jersey, and continues coming through for me with new contracts every once in awhile. Below are the questions, and Jim's answers:<\/p>\n
1. What is Expeditive?<\/b><\/p>\n
Expeditive is an interim revenue cycle staffing firm.<\/p>\n
2. What made you decide to go into this business?<\/b><\/p>\n
Saw a need within the industry for professional and seasoned folks to work on short-term assignments\/projects.<\/p>\n
3. What types of challenges have you had along the way?<\/b><\/p>\n
Filling the growing number of job orders.<\/p>\n
4. Have the positives outweighed the negatives, and if so, how?<\/b><\/p>\n
Absolutely. I love what I am doing. As you know, I spent years on the road as an independent revenue cycle consultant. This venture allows me to go home every night and affords me more time with my family.<\/p>\n
5. What would you recommend for anyone looking to go into business for themselves?<\/b><\/p>\n
Be passionate about it. Do not go into half hearted and be well capitalized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
