Will Writing?

I have been offered a part time Will Writing business opportunity. Is there anyone who has tried this, would like to know how it went and what the market is like.

  • Is this franchising?

    Have you used Google to investigate the pitfalls?

    Have been offered training, technical support and software for £125 per month. Is there a market out there for a self employed Will Writer??
  • I would have thought that only someone with extensive experience and contacts who switched from being an employee of a solicitors; company to freelance work would stand a chance.

    Did you know that many of the large charities offer free will-writing services to their donors?

    Why not just try to find out for yourself, instead of relying on strangers you don't know.

    Go onto google and try to find self employed will writers. If you find 4 million then there will probably be too much competition to bother with it.

    If you don't find any ask yourself why nobody is doing it.

    If you find some, contact them. If they can write you a will today, it's because they haven't got any other customers, if they have a 6 month waiting list, they have more customers than they can cope with.

    Also find out how much they charge, if the price is too low it's because they are desperate for customers etc. etc.
