This site is maintained by ACT to provide information, tips, advice and sign-posting links for anyone considering or entering into Self-employment. Specifically, within “What’s Available” can be found details of the Self-employment help from Jobcentre Plus that we are delivering for them to Devon, Dorset, Somerset and South Wiltshire in 2008.

Regularly updated with training developments as well as related business-start topics we hope that the website content, whilst designed for existing and potential Clients and collaborators, will be useful and stimulating for any visitor!

Additionally, the website contains debate, argument and comment which reflect local, regional and national lobbying which ACT conducts on self-employment training issues. From over 30 years of continuous involvement with Government and other Agency programmes and schemes to help people start their own businesses, along with other enterprise-related initiatives, we feel well-qualified to comment upon policies, strategies and trends which impact upon that work and the quality of services which are provided.

There may be disagreement with specific views and examples – but hopefully not with an objective of seeking continuous improvement!

Self Employment Savvy Tips Phone

Will your customers call a mobile number? Can they leave messages for you? Does anyone else answer your phone? What image of you and your business does anyone get who tries to call you? Have you thought through the way you use the equipment yourself? How do you sound? Why not ask people who’ve called you? How reliable are you in replying to messages – and how long do you take to get back?
