Hey

Those of you who work for yourselves - can i ask what you do please ?

I have a host of health conditions - some fluctiating and ultimately could do with working for myself someway / somehow but yea.

Thanks

I'd think about it not in terms of what do others do, but what skills can you offer that would be marketable?

Remember as well that it will take time to build up any business. You will need to establish a client base, spend money on advertising/website, possibly get relevant insurance (depending on what you do), you'll also need to do some research to establish demand for your business in your local area or online if you are looking to do something online based, find out what the competition is out there, how much they charge and what's your USP vs them. Never compete on price, compete on quality of service and remember when setting a price you need to factor in enough to cover yourself for sick pay, holiday pay, pension contributions as these will no longer be provided for you, so you'll need to charge enough to cover these.
