I started working about two (2) years ago as a hospital Executive assistant and when lay offs came around, I was one of the first forty (40) to go. I have been unemployed for two (2) months and decided this is what I would like to be doing. I want more control of what I do and I also want freedom to live and learn. Please send any suggestions you may have for starting a business. I welcome all!! Welcome to all new members and if I can help anyone, please let me know. Thanks Pamela Jackson

And then to spend some time reading through the various topic sections here on the site. It's plenty of work, starting up a business, but well worth it! You'll find that 'freedom to live and learn' and then some Wishing you much success!! __________________ Create a welcome packet for new clients with this guide and free templates!
