Does anyone have any expert advice on going self employed. Literally anything, hoping to know as much as possible so there's no nasty surprises when I do begin on my own

Thanks guys. Leah xx
 
I have had my own business for 2 years now, social media has been a big one for me, posting deals in local selling pages helps too, i started mobile, then from home and now I have a shop and staff, started with £30 in my pocket! X
 
It's hard graft.
You'll have to notify the HMRC, change you car insurance to business IF you're going mobile , liability insurance , keep EVERY receipt business related, even work clothing, petrol (but only if mobile, can't claim petrol for a static location) stock - the lot

Get an accounts book, they're only a few quid, write all your incomings and outgoings

Flyers and business cards at the ready and go door posting

Good luck

I thought you can claim to and from salon to wholesaler and training courses.

I was gonna claim for Salon International.
 
Yes you can for those Tori, yes.
But not driving from home to a salon and back again.
If mobile, you can claim from the minute to drive from your house to a clients house and every house you visit.
 
Ooh!!! Good!![emoji106]
