I found Black & Hyatt's book "Pacts with the Devil" to be very useful, not least in that it showed me pacts can be made without being the soul-selling variety. Interesting workings of several classic Grimoires included too.
Oddly for me even though I tried, these "demonic" spirits if you want to use that word, didn't seem to honour the pact.
Couple years later I had the idea of trying again with a totally different spirit, of a different culture, who again seemed to accept but this time appears to have honoured the Pact in most ways.
For me, the big advantage of an ongoing Pact to help your objectives is that it's perfect for a busy life, in that you don't need to do constant spells, rituals and time-consuming work in privacy; it works automatically providing one keeps their side of the bargain. Perfect for those who need a MAJOR life-change too, in which minor spells or even bigger rituals won't cut the mustard.
It took two and a half years all in all to change what I needed, but it seemed the only way.
