“Registering your own company, opening a bank account and the (seemingly!) all-important design of your business cards have all been done…but what you may not appreciate is that’s the easy bit!  When preparing to go freelance you would be well advised to include Sharon’s workshop near the top of your To Do list.  Her practical – and pragmatic – advice will be invaluable to all freelance trainers.”

Simon Collyer

“Having been in a variety of training roles for the last 20 years, I at last decided to take the plunge and go freelance.  Very intimidating and scary, particularly in this economic climate.

I did research on training consultancy’s that I felt could help and found Sharon’s website.  I was worried about attending the course as I wasn’t sure if it would be beneficial to me and as it would be money coming out of my own pocket.

I attended the course and was thrilled with the content, the way Sharon gave delegates individual feedback.  It gave fantastic sound advice for me at this worrying time.

Since attending this course I have been able to secure good contract work through my own endeavours and through a contract introduced through Sharon.  This year I will earn more than I did as an employed trainer, and am enjoying my life so much better.

Sharon gave me the kick start I needed.  Thanks”

“Having been a freelance trainer for 19 years I cannot believe I’ve attended a workshop which if I’d gone on 19 years ago I would have been sunning myself in Tobago! Had many light bulb moments and so excited about my new strategies I’ve learned in attracting new clients. A great programme, highly recommended. MORE please Sharon!”
