Becoming self employed

Hello
I'm after some advice. I want to start my own business but have no experience of running a business. I have read the basic web guide on starting your own business.
Has anyone here started their own business? If so please could you give me any useful tips?
many thanks in advance

  • Hi. I did a seminar with our local enterprise centre and received a £500 grant. They covered everything you need know and it was only a total of 4 days max if I remember rightly. See the https://www.startups.co.uk website, they should be able to help you find something in your area.
    Good luck
