Once you have decided to go self employed in your chosen area the next bit you need is advice and help to achieve those goals you have set.
I decided on working on Internet marketing as this looked good, fitted around my lifestyle and potentially money to be made.
As with any venture there are many experts and guru's who can offer advice and help for a fee. Some are good and some are not so good. In these early stages you are blinded a bit by who to trust and who not to trust.
I have found that if you have ideals and aspirations then those who offer solutions should match yours. Now that list is up to you but to get going you need to be honest, hard working, ethical and also ruthless but not being aggressive or abusive.
The key to this is planing. What to do, how to get there and once there how to stay there and grow. Sometimes you have to take a chance. Now this does not mean financially, sometimes you get a gut feeling that something your doing is good and may benefit others either by a product or a service.
Take an example of the Bulmers TV advert. There was a chap on the street flogging his heart and soul into giving FREE tickets to see his mates band in a pub in Islington, London. Countless people walked past and did not take the opportunity and ignored his claims. The ones who did take the chance were treated to some free Cider and free gig by up and coming chart stars PLAN B. What a decision they made!
When they interviewed some of the attendees once claimed 'it was the best decision I made today'. Thats all it takes, if you get a feeling then go for it!
