The new year might just be your time to become your own boss. And what better way than with free advice from fellow tradespeople who were once where you are right now? “Could I start a business?” “Would I make a good boss?” These are common questions thought by an inquisitive and budding entrepreneur. But what's your brain telling you? How do you stop your inside voice from putting you off from finally being your own boss? The doubts usually pick out all the “what-ifs” and the worst-case scenarios; it’s too hard, it’ll be too stressful, I won’t be able to afford to live. That’s why you need to hear from people just like you, who have been there, done that, and got the business! Where to start with getting your trade business off the ground First, get your facts straight about starting your own trade business.
