Taking the plunge!

Hello fellow Zoners!

Well - I've decided to take the plunge. My fixed term contract is coming to an end and my colleague and I have decided to go it alone. Scaaaary!!!

She is the generalist expert and my specialism is L&D so we can hopefully cover all bases. We're looking to deal with SME's in Greater Glasgow and have started the whole (complicated!) process of setting up a business.

My question is - does anyone have a contract/service level agreement that they have found to be successful that they would be willing to share.

Thanks in advance and wish us luck!!

contract/ SLA

Hi Sue - congratulations on taking the step of faith.

You may need 2 diff ones - L&D & HR advice - depending upon the business model(s) you descide to work to.

I will send you a copy over the weekend - but I am away working & do not have access to it at the moment. I have made the document available free from trainerbase if you need a copy sooner than later (you will need to activate your email on your profile for me to send it)(http://www.trainerbase.co.uk/ResourcesShop/display_Resource.asp?keyword=contract) as you are going freelance it is worth joining.

There are also other good articles about going solo on this and the www.businessballs.com site

not quite an SLA but

Hi Sue

This isn't quite an SLA (actually it isn't anything like an SLA!) but if you are going to "consult" in L&D it might help, my own T&Cs are on the website www.coach-and-courses.com

There is also a "20 questions" document for going freelance in the Downloadable Resources section
I hope it helps
Good luck

Thanks for these

Rus - I've already got your 20 questions but I'll have a look at your T&Cs, thanks

Joined Trainerbase last week so still finding my way round it. If you could send the other stuff that would be great. As far as I'm aware my email is enabled, but if not, send it to me at sue@people-solutions.co.uk

Thanks

Sue
