Finally closed the deal on one company to get me as a business consultant and i'm so happy
although i will have to draft my own contract
so i checked the contract they have and i have minor revisions like the work hours
here's my revision
tell me what you think
i will work 4 12 hour days per workweek
or 6 8 hour days per workweek
or a combination of either 4 hours, 8 hours and 12 hours which will total to 48 hours per work week
sundays are free
saturdays are reserved for training
what do you think?

This is a tough one, you would have to do that, plus work on your own terms in addition to that one client, and of course when you are finished there, you may need other clients as well.
How long is your contract for? Were I in your position, I think I would opt for the most days, because then you can see how the business is on each separate day.
Cheers.

hi chipesterkhan It sounds good to me just do not get over
tired. You must have some time off for sure, as working
for yourself you can really call your own shots.would not a
regular forty hour week be better? just asking and thinking
you do not want to burn out.but hey congrats on getting
your first customer.

thank you
the reason for 48 hours a week is because i often found myself in the past job working an extra 8 hours without thinking about it
so 48 seems fine
adds more value for their buck

I think I will choose the combination of 4.8 & 12 hours so that you wont get bored with your schedule.
