YAAAAAAAAAY! Envelopes and cello bags have arrived!

Leeeeeets wrap pack and parcel up! Outside in the sunneroo!

Business courses I did were ones set up down here by the southwest business enterprise people. They were free but damned good. Chap who did it has left now but he was the biggest star of them all.

If you are looking at setting up your own business and want to know niggly bits I will happily have a chat and pull out some ideas

I think Haly has hit the right idea though and is doing a book keeping course at her local college. If you've not studied stuff like this I would suggest it's a good idea - I'm trying to find a way onto one at the moment because right now I'm winging it with what I know but when things get big I think I will be left behind a little!

Book wise - every book I have read so far has been a bit patronising and pants (especially the sales and pitching books I have read). Maybe because I don't have issues with how to present myself to people/what to say etc I feel that way. (Most of what I have learned has been off people/meeting people/discussing business with professionals etc) Books are great but only if you can apply them in reality and directly to your business.

Depending on your product and what you plan on doing just... depends on what you focus on in large

As said - email me and I will let you know what I know (but it's not everything by far!) One biggest bit of advice I can say it's socialise with EVERYONE and stay in contact with them all with frequent catch up calls/emails etc! If I didn't do that, I wouldn't have got where I am now
