Question Anybody here self employed?

I'm thinking of starting up a business in the evenings and weekends setting up CMS-based websites, along with social media/marketing for small, local businesses (pubs, hairdressers, the like).

Does anybody here have any experience working for themselves and want to give any tips/pointers?

The main point I can't quite decide on is pricing. There are a few local web designers but I'll be setting up a CMS (wordpress/etc) and a theme for them and maintaining it - not creating a full website from scratch (which I guess is where I can afford to undercut the others).
Also social marketing (Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn/Foursquare as well as Google Maps listings)... what would you want to pay someone to do that for you?




If you want you can check out the three sites it progress:

Look down, back up. Where are you?
You're on Boat Drinks, reading the signature your signature could be like.
I'm on a computer.
