It was risky and I was scared, but I made a phone call to the head of Human Resources for the world's largest oilfield service corporation. He hired me to provice outplacement consulting for his division of the company.
When that was enormously successful and profitable, I reached out to leaders in the other divisions, ultimately working for 11 divisions in the company. That led to as much as $500,000 in annual billings. This is the letter I used to open the door to the second division.

Dear Terry,
I saved Stuart Castillon 50-75% on his outplacement costs and would like a chance to do the same for you.
I am sending you an example of these savings and a marketing kit which gives my background.
I'll call you soon to see if this is of any interest.
Best regards,
