Being self-employed is a dream for many people. And while working for yourself can be a great thing, making the transition from working for someone else to self-employment is often fraught with mistakes. Consider these common errors that self-employed people make, as well as how to correct them.
Failing to Budget Your Income
When you’re self-employed, it is easy to think of every penny that you make as profit. However, if you do this, you may quickly fail to budget appropriately. When you’re self-employed, you’re responsible for all overhead costs, like the costs of your office, computer, electricity and more. What’s more, you are also responsible for paying your own self-employment taxes, a duty which must be fulfilled quarterly.
Letting a Client Dictate What Happens
When you’re self-employed, you’re the boss. This means that you get the luxury and privilege of setting your own prices and determining your own rates. Don’t make the mistakes of letting a client tell you how much they will pay and then going with that.
