Starting Out
Permalink Closed

Hi

Thought I would introduce myself. I am an Associate member of the ICB having gained Level I manual and Level II computerised last year. Having put off applying for my practising certificate and insurance, it took me being made redundant to do something about it!
I have my own business cards and just waiting for approval from a local paper for my advert. Fingers crossed.
Should anyone have any advice on starting out I would really appreciate it.


Thanks
biggrin

Hi

Good luck with your new bookkeeping business.

I got made redundant in August 2006 and set up own bookkeeping business. Would say building up a client base to get the amount of work for the equilivant of a full time job is the hardest part (it is even harder now because more and more people setting up bookkeeping business because of the credit crunch and being made redundant from jobs).

Also the other thing I have found is that beginning part of the month I have hardly any work and other part of the month I have too much with all the same deadlines and I have to work long hours to meet them.

Alison
