Exciting times ahead…self employment here I come

So…what’s the state of play?

I’ve been made redundant and after various considerations I am going self-employed and intending to work with existing customers to cover admin, projects and SPIRIT. After some initial set backs I now have the following:

1. One day a week with a customer to carry out email campaigns and the like – 12 month contract

2. Projects with another existing customer who has a lot of work in the pipeline to discuss with me – ad hoc

3. Couple of days a week with a third customer – 6 month contract

4. Brand new venture with Jim Austin’s company who do Financial Services, need to get up to speed with their the Finance area but they’re interested in me working with them after I did a training demo and interview on Monday – ad hoc

Needless to say I am absolutely delighted by this turn of events, can’t be happier, in fact, I am a little concerned that I will have too much work…ah well, if it means late nights and weekend work then so be it. Hopefully putting this into print isn’t going to cause a collapse in the promised work but all in all very, very excited for what the future holds…

Mum’s coming round later for my birthday so might open something more fizzy than lager tonight!

Watch this space!
