Starting and Running a Business

Institute of Carpenters Posted on 05/08/2021 by IOC-Admin24/11/2021

Some student members decide to first work for other companies but with a view to starting their own business. What is it actually like to run your own business? What does it take to get up and running successfully?

Visit some of the case studies from former students who have started their own businesses in recent years, and find out what it takes to be successful in working for yourself and employing other people.
