The Skills You Need Guide to Self-Employment and Running Your Own Business
If you are thinking of setting up your own business, then this book is for you! It will also be helpful to those who have already set up their business, but feel that they need a little more guidance to move forwards.
It is a sad fact that many businesses fail in their first few years. There are a number of reasons for this. Some are simply bad luck: the development of an economic downturn, for example. Others, however, may be more avoidable through better planning and management, or perhaps by understanding more about the risks that you are taking.
The Skills You Need Guide to Self-Employment and Running Your Own Business guides you through the process of self-employment. It starts with explanations of the terms involved, and moves through the skills that you will need, before explaining to how to set up and run your business effectively. With chapters on freelancing and franchising as well as entrepreneurship, this book is for anyone who is thinking of self-employment as a career move.

Our eBooks - No Nonsense Sales Policy
Forget everything you know (or have found out) about internet marketing tactics. We’re determined to be up front and honest with you.
You won’t find the usual pages of ‘hard-sell’ nonsense here. Our four selling principles are simple:
Most of the information in our eBooks is freely available on the website.
We believe the information we publish should be freely available to everybody, and it is – just browse our pages. We do, however, understand that, for convenience, it may be easier to get an eBook (like it may be more convenient to eat in a restaurant than cook your own meal). The convenience of an eBook means that you can print it, search it, read it on your kindle, tablet, laptop, smart-phone or other gadget while sitting on the beach or at the top of a mountain far away from any Wi-Fi, 4G or other networks.
The content in our eBooks is a little different from the website content. Our eBooks read more like a book (than a series of webpages) and there are no advertisements; they also contain some extra information.
Our eBooks have been professionally designed and published and all have ISBN numbers.
