All 614 of them.</p> <p>I was looking for one person. Just one I could call and say: I have an idea for a consulting service, here&rsquo;s the pricing, here&rsquo;s the target client, is this real or am I flattering myself. That&rsquo;s the bar. One person who could answer that question honestly and who I trust not to mention it to anyone in my current company by Friday.</p>
