Be The Boss

What it is

Being your own boss means running your own business.

How to do it

Start small alongside work, then build up.

Top tip

Get good advice on tax and contracts early.

My experience

Who doesn’t want to be the boss? Working your ass off for someone else, making all the profit for someone else. No thanks!

There are so many opportunities to be your own boss – anything you see and think you could do it better, give it a shot. Setting up a company is often very cheap, and very easy, but do your research first and don’t give up a steady income until your business is profitable.
