Write an article for the site.
If you'd like to contribute an article, please let us
know. We can't pay, but we'll credit you as author, and
provide a link to your web page. Articles need to be 500+
words in length. If you suggest a title, we'll tell you
whether we're likely to use the article. Email your suggestion
to us at IT-story@inst.org.
Tell us how you
did it. Are you a self employed IT consultant?
If so, tell us how you made it. We'd love to publish your
story on the website, as an inspiration to others. Write
to us at
IT-story@inst.org. Here are some of the things you could mention.
What were you doing before you went freelance?
How did you get started?
Why did you set up your own business? (Was it redundancy,
or was it something you'd always planned to do?)
What problems did you have to overcome?
What skills or attributes have helped you succeed?
Do you have any weak areas? (for example, doing the
book keeping).
How big is your business, in terms of turnover, employees
or office size? Have you grown?
Do you have favourite equipment, tools or methods?
Have you done any interesting jobs?
Do you remember your first client?
What do you wish you'd known when you first started?
How do you promote your practice?
What advice would you give to anyone setting up?
In what area do you live and work?
Do you have a photo we can use? Being able to put a face
to the name always makes the story much more real.
