You may be right....but I think I would find that a bit degrading and wouldn't have it any other way. I enjoy the challenge...meeting new people...exchanging ideas.
Why should I follow the crowd and spend 5 years messing around? It may be the "norm" but if I'm really really really happy doing what I am now?
I'll be honest...this meeting with Julian today has been something I've been looking forward too from the moment he invited me up. Same with Darren or whenever a new prospect or glimmer of hope to improve what I'm doing comes my way.
Whatever happens - I've still learnt some invaluable lessons today that I'll remember for life.

I have to say I do agree with Mark, this is very early at 16, you are only young once, get the balance right.
The help that Charlie has recieved so far is NOT helping him to even break even. He is too focussed on buying lights instead of making money. He has to learn to budget.
Ref brochures would any of you be happy to put your leaflets on here for me to judge?

Sure. If I had any. Actually I do, but they're about 3 years old and out of date.
Brochures and my target market are mutually exclusive. I found I was sending out about 3 per year so didn't bother after the first batch.
Nowadays my unconverted customers are offered a personal meeting, or are treated to a bespoke response to their enquiry. Most of my weddings return £400+ and I'm turning work away on a regular basis.
