"Judging from a lot of the replies, no people are mlst definitely not undervaluing their work! 😆. Someone said factor in £300 for fuel, where are they commuting from, France?!"

Xledi replied to Tracey Hancock's discussion Specialised Work - Where to Find it/Advertise......

"Of course you can do it, go for it. Yes you are correct in thinking there is a gap in the market. Some of the responses on here are a bit strange. I.e The person that has worked for prestigious clients for 30 years but never once been asked to do…"

"the simple terms are it will take you 10yrs to be fully established. With anything like this your best advertisement is word of mouth which takes time. I started with 3 days gardening and 2 days on a hen farm and just built up over time "

Gary Clapham replied to Gary Clapham's discussion Stihl kma 135r v km130 disappointed
