08/12/2026, 9:47 AMHi guys, I have a question. I'm running a solo consulting company registered in the UK, and I operate on B2B basis. Has anyone like me been able to land projects with US based companies remotely maybe? As per my research and resources I checked so far, I couldn't find any barriers that companies would face in the US to use my consulting services; but if am wrong please correct me. Thank you
Note: I'm not talking about government related projects.

08/13/2026, 8:19 AMThank you @Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse), this is very valuable insight on the issue since it's my first time trying to work directly with US based companies without intermediaries. Yeah, I think you're right about the companies aggressively allocating capital to AI. Maybe, I'll try to diversify into other markets and see how it goes.
