How do you monetize these skills you have acquired? What I mean is how does a
security firm find clients?
I know it is fun to do the work and their has been another post on doing a scan

How do you sell something to someone if you cannot pre-qualify them, that the
problem has no visible business impact.
(meaning if they have been hacked and there are no big things happening in the
network, no spamserver, viruses, no downtime)
and may never be impacted.
do you do to sell something to a client if you or he doesn't know if he needs
it?
and getting over the "who cares" factor that seems to be so prevalent in
corporate world. and getting over the fact that a inhouse network admin or CTO

I know of one company that does 750million a year in a competitive market, got
broken into 3 times physically and did nothing because they didn't notice
anything missing. The place is probably wired for sound better than the rolling

the day if you don't get paid for this, it is really just a hobby and there is
nothing wrong with that.
Is everyone else doing to garner business?
