Hello, this is my first post, I am looking for a sanity check on a business plan I have.
I have signed on for a C&G 6129 fast track course. £5k
I do not intend to go for the NVQ as I plan to go self employed as soon as the course is complete (6months).
I am mid forties and this is a totally new career path for me.
I have limited contacts in the industry. 1 well established plumber has offered to help me out of i get stuck on the job. (free advise). I do have a contact in decorating who I can sub too.
I consider myself well presentable and client facing. And am confident with people.
My business would be based around central London.
I really enjoy doing my own plumbing around the house, and have completed several fairly big projects (new bathroom/replace rads) to my wifes satisfaction.
I am prepared to work 24 hours to get the business going.
The million dollar question...
On starting the business. Does anyone think i am realistic in expecting to make at least £450 a week inclusive of tax, insurance, transport, advertising, admin. tools.
Excluding material costs?
Apologies for the matter of fact tone of the post. I need to make a descision and want as much info as I can get.
Your thoughts, and any abuse you think appropriate greatly appreciated.
All the best
