I had a very varied career before I started my own business – including dog and horse training, lecturing, copywriting, marketing and event organisation. I learned most of what I know about business, customer benefits and events through volunteering.

Annette Ecuyere - WordzworkWales
WordzworkWales offers coaching, mentoring and training to small businesses, creative individuals and social/not for profit enterprises. I found it hard at the start to have confidence in myself, to promote my skills and charge a fee, but I have learned how to let others know the value of my knowledge and experience.
At present I am moving away from the above and am working on two new businesses, one online for event organisers, and another at my home which will be a wild bee centre.
