There are 2 ways you can make the most of this event at One Trinity Green, South Shields...

1. If you're just thinking about starting a business, but not ready yet...

then this is a quick way to start planning. It's ideal for people who are just thinking about working for themselves and want to know how to register officially - great for freelancers, hobbyists, sellers on sites like Etsy/Vinted etc. Alternatively you might like to book the Get Trading Programme - 3 sessions helping you prepare. See website for details.

You'll learn all about starting a business so you'll know what to do when the time comes:

how to choose the right legal structure (Sole Trader / Partnership / Limited Company)
the advantages & disadvantages of each
about the registration process and legal obligations
meet the TEDCO Business Advisors who will be there to help you when you're ready

2. You know you NEED to register as self-employed now...

so once you've listened to start-up advice (see 1 above), then you'll actually register your business in the session, with the support of the TEDCO Business Advisors.

Ideal for people who are ready to start such as:

self-employed drivers (such as Just Eat, Deliveroo etc)
construction workers who need to register as sub-contractors
private fitness trainers who are ready to take on personal clients
hairdressers, beauticians and nail technicians who are renting a chair in a salon.

IMPORTANT NOTICE - If you want to register a business at the event, you'll need to bring your laptop, phone or other device & some personal details - we'll tell you in advance what you'll need to bring.

Whether you're starting your business on the day or are still in the planning phase, there'll be handy hints and guidance to keep you on track as you progress your plans.

And plenty of tea and biscuits!

Reserve your place now.
