Hi everyone, I've stumbled across this website whilst frantically looking for some information on google and thank god I did. Seems there are loads of people on this website with some excellent ideas. I'm currently employed as a full time sales manager for a very large company however with the economic downturn redundancy is looming. I really want to start up my own training company- well perhaps not company but I want to work for myself so Im guessing that's what freelancing is. But where do I begin? I'm looking at doing one of those professional training qualifications but only when I have saved enough money as they seem quite expensive. I already have alot of training experience from my current role and I have even completed a 3 day train the trainer course within my company. But literally what do I do now? How do I get contacts? Any advice would be so greatly appreciated. Ria
