to wonder how you can earn £1500 a month running your own business, 30 hours max a week

[mummyneedingahug]

which allows you to do the school run, have the school holidays off and didn't have a massive start up cost??
Is this even possible?

Isn't that teaching (other than the own business bit)?

My mother ran an e-bay business and earned a bit more than this weekly. You need to find a good product to import and sell.

Can't do the school run if you teach though and I bet its more than 30 hours a week?!

What did she sell?

That would be my business. I run performing arts classes. There was a substantial start up though and I have to work weekends.

I suppose prostitution would fit those criteria, though it's hardly What Women Should Be Doing In Today's Britain.

Are you asking because someone you know claims to be doing this, or are you looking for yourself?

Bilbobagginstummy in today's Britain we should pimp out our DH's ;)

Why don't you post for us what you're good at and enjoy, to help narrow it down a bit? Presumably you don't want to retrain for years.

You need to make a profit of £15/hour to get to that figure (based on 30 hours a week for 40 weeks per year), so there is lots of work that would achieve this easily.

Isn't that teaching? - ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Family related things
Early learning
Unusual birthday gifts for children
Event organising

I am up for anything though!

I was considering selling a box/hamper of birthday gifts mums could buy in advance ready for the year ahead??

How are teachers supposed to do the school run when they're expected to be in school at least an hour before classes start?

Isn't that less than 400£ a week?

Should be plenty of things you could do to earn that?

Rabbits. What did she import?

I once had an idea to do character themed trampoline safety nets.

Tutoring. It is possible to earn that in peak season.

Don't you need qualifications to tutor?

Um, I earn £3500 a month and work less than 30 hr per week (marketing consultant).

I could probably earn that if I was brave enough to go for it - I am a financial consultant - doesn't sound ridiculous, anyway

I'm self employed an earn (won't say exact) but over £1500 a month working from home / some days in the office. I'm an online marketing manager specialising in search engine optimisation.

Find something your good at, look for small companies that might want to hire u on a self employed basis.

teaching? 30 hours a week max? you're 'avin a laugh,right?

30 hours a day isn't it, ninah?

I earn less than that for a 35 hr week, mon-fri! I thought I was doing ok!

darn right lady s
