What is the Reality of being
Self-Employed?

Self-employed businesses can fail for a variety of reasons. Common factors include;

​

​1) Lack of Financial Management

  • Cash flow problems

  • Underpricing or overpricing

  • Not saving for taxes

 

2) Lack of Market Demand

  • Unclear niche or target audience

  • Misreading trends

 

3) Inadequate Marketing

  • Poor branding

  • Limited reach

 

4) Poor Planning or Strategy

  • Not having a business plan

  • Failure to adapt

​

5) Limited Support Systems

  • Isolation

  • No network

​

6) Legal or Regulatory Issues

  • Non-compliance

  • Tax mistakes

​

7) Inability to Scale

  • Staying small

  • Too dependent on one client

​

I have personally experienced some of these factors; my experiences were all tied up in trusting people and missing some red flags. At Niche, we would like to work with you to ensure that your business and YOU are protected.
