f you’ve ever called yourself a “consultant” and then had to explain what that actually means, this might hit home. I mapped out the mess of titles and labels — consultant, freelancer, advisor, coach, fractional, etc. — and what they signal to clients. It's part taxonomy, part rant. Hope it’s useful to others trying to describe what they do.
