This book is made up of our personal research and experience, and it should

in no way be a replacement for professional legal or financial advice as

every person’s individual circumstance is different. Discuss your personal

needs with your own accountant or lawyer to ensure you’re making the best

decisions for your industry and location.

How to start your own business,

grow your client base, and promote

yourself without selling out or

starving. This no faff, no fluff guide

is peppered with applicable advice

(things we learned from starting our

own business), unasked-for humor,

and worksheets (homework, gasp!)

to help you just get started already.

Because raw talent and good ideas

aren't enough. And because you can

do this. Really. ›››
