"Now my business has become a reality. If I hadn’t have gone on the (Be Your Own Boss) course I probably would have continued to think about my idea and half-heartedly given it a go. I now have business cards and a website. I have successfully completed work for a couple of clients and I am hoping business will grow."
Caroline Smith: Oakley Media Ltd

Sandeep Virdee: Reeth
