Pollock Spark

I had such high hopes about working with Michael Pollock, but in the end I’d spent $ 1600 and was no closer to figuring out a new direction for my career. He’s very complimentary, but I question if that’s disingenuous. I thought I’d made it clear that while we did this work together I also needed to find a way to pay my bills, but his suggestions were few and far between. And what he felt I should be doing? A freelance business that was interesting, that I’d have been good at, but one I’d have to work years to create. For a person with so many contacts, I felt misled.
After our eight sessions, I took a break for a quick one month job, planning to come back to him when I was done. He said this would be a very good thing for me, even though I was skeptical (and with good reason). After this job ended I contacted him, but he was slow to respond. Said he wouldn’t be free for a month and that I could cancel the next four sessions without incident. So I ended up with nothing other than compliments about previous work – and that’s fantastic, but it doesn’t pay the mortgage.

I hired Pollock/​Spark to help me sharpen my business efforts by focusing on the Clients likely to use my services. He challenges my thinking, helps me become the master of my own destiny and always looks at my situation from a fresh and smart perspective. He hates bullshit and is incisive but always tactful.
The world is full of one man bands (at the end of the day aren’t we all?) and his contribution is like having your very own management consultancy, except it’s like dealing with the partner and not the pimply –faced recent graduate. His experience is earned and wisely applied.
You can take away anything you want from me but don’t take away my Michael!
