Taking the big leap
Permalink Closed

You probably will all know that I have been working full time with a CA firm whilst also building up my own client portfolio.

I knew this  point would come but have decided to make the leap of faith and properly work full time for myself.  Currently have over 40 clients and I knew was going to be difficult to get accounts done and tax returns done in time for the end of January, got 28 tax return still to do.

I reached an agreement with employer and have terminated contract with immediate effect.

So start full time myself from tomorrow

Hope it the wise decision.

Regards

Mark

Well done Mark.

I know how frightening it can be. At least you have a solid base of clients to build on I'm sure now you have the time to commit you will grow this quickly.

All the best Mark,

Considering how well you were doing while working full time, you can only fly now.

It's going to be fun and inspirational to hear how you grow your business and client

base over the next couple of years.
