Not to wreck your chances at a nice consulting gig, but uhh.. well, wouldn't most Fortune 100 companies have a rather large IT staff with plenty of SQL experts? Where I work now is in the range of 115 and we have several hundred people in IT with quite a few who are versed in SQL Server and T-SQL. *shrug*

Sounds similar to a situation at my last company when they purchased new software, the vendor was showing this "neat" feature that lets you write your own SQL to customize the app... at which a VP said "Is there a SQL for Dummies book I can buy?" Two DBAs were sitting with-in ear shot and both started writing their resignation letters

Most large companies do not have people who I would consider to be SQL Experts. There is plenty of opportunity for consulting in this arena.

I am sure that there are quite a number of very qualified people who frequent this site who consult for a living and would be interested in seeing what the job requirements are.

The proper forum for this type of posting is over here however: http://sqlteam.com/forums/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=24
