Did you consider becoming a solutions architect?

It is funny that you ask this, as I've just began [this][1] learning path on AWS. Having the knowledge is only half the story though. I'm not good at sales / finding business partners. I'm good at solving their problems.

Have you thought about working for a tech consulting firm? It probably won't pay as much as freelance, but you won't have to deal with sales and bookkeeping.

Or: the other day there was this article here on HN about an agency for developers. I can't find it right now, I think the title was "The cost of the developer" or something like that, original article on The New Yorker, iirc.

That's it, thanks!
