My niche is architectural design both exterior and interior, BIM, and other related skills.

Now I don’t understand some things about what should I offer in those consultations and how should I outline them on the platform

The idea I understand is:

Client has a project ➡️ books a consultation with me ➡️ asks a question/advice on this project ➡️ I give him an answer/reply as an expert ➡️ Consultation ends, I get paid.

As simple as that, and thus no actual tangible service is given (in terms of my niche). In my niche it is all about actual products like drawing packages, models, renders…etc.

So my questions are:

1)      Can I offer both a service and a consultation inside that “Consultation” option? E.g. The client books a consultation for 30 minutes discusses the main outline of a project with me and I discuss it with him, then after the meeting, he sends me a direct contract for a project or such.

2)      If this feature is only for giving expert advice or answers to technical questions, should my replies be timely and on the spot? No chance for sending notes or questions from the client beforehand for me to prepare my replies to or a follow up after the meeting with detailed written advice with references for example?

I’m really confused and want to implement my niche into this option and offer something that doesn’t put me in trouble because of ignorance or misunderstandings.

Can someone guide me? A person from my same niche would be great!

I learned that about 5-6 months ago there were bills discussed regarding severe steps backward when it comes to the freedom of speech categorized and labelled nicely as "hate speech", cutting off internet on individual citizens as per law, and accessing sensitive digital information of citizens without warrants.

Then, there has been no talk about this again on social media.

Are these bills really going to become law later this year? Are the Canadian people really letting this happen to the country? This is a major downhill that has never been even seen in the severest dictatorships in the middle east. Only North Korea might be compared to this.

UPDATE:

I understand there is a lot of hate on how this post was phrased and general thought that I should be American and a MAGA activist to ask something like this. Just grow up, the world has 8 billion people. Planet Earth is not just the continent of North America, try to understand that there are people who are actually researching immigration and asking genuine questions and SURPRISE it is natural that they do harsh comparisons, because they want honest replies and actual help.

Thank you!
