    @curare. Your skills can be used and is required in many businesses where the guys can not even calculate their cost price properly.

    Start networking. Join BMI or other networking groups. Join Linkedin, advertise on Gumtree or similar sites. Get a web site to market yourself on line and be sure to have your web address on your business cards. Get around and meet people and get introduced.
    Excellence is not a skill; its an attitude...
