Want to start your own agency but are intimidated by the thought of going it alone? Then you won’t want to miss this episode of The KitchenTable Community Podcast. Sarah Townsend is author of Survival Skills for Freelancers, which is vital reading for anyone considering flying solo, whether as a freelancer or an agency owner.

Sarah shares her own experiences and provides a practical roadmap for the journey of self-employment. Among the topics we discuss are: 

• the discomfort many of us face around pricing – and how to get over it
• how outsourcing tasks can make your working days much more pleasant (without jeopardising your cashflow)
• the importance of walking away when a project or client isn’t right for you
• how to manage your own expectations of self-employed life
• handling the inevitable bad days 

Essential listening for anyone who wants to work for themselves.
