Stop dreaming about a career you wish you had, and start building a business you are proud of.

Your leap to self-employment is one step away.

Are you someone who...

  • Fell into your career accidentally, moving from one job to another, eventually feeling pigeonholed in a certain industry?
  • Spends your workdays counting down the hours until you can go home?
  • Regularly scrolls through job adverts, looking for a potential change?
  • Often vents frustrations about your job to friends and family?
  • Feels you're lacking control over your life and career?

There is an answer

...and it's likely been in the back of your mind all this time.

It's time to be your own boss

Run your own business.
Control what you do, when you do it and who you do it with.

It sounds like a fantasy, and if you don’t do anything that’s what it will be.

BUT I’m here to tell you that you can make it happen.

You just need a little bit of help.

Let me properly introduce myself...

I’m Amy Lester, Start-Up & Virtual-Assistant Mentor.

I live just outside Birmingham, UK in a tiny village with one shop.

With over a decade of experience in Business Administration, Operations and Marketing, I’ve seen it all. I work with my clients on regaining their time so they can focus on taking their business to the next level.

I’ve been in a job I ended up hating, hitting a glass ceiling and wished the things in this course were handed to me when I first started out. I’ve designed this course to share my experiences with you and help you from making the mistakes I’ve seen.

I’ve seen the pros and cons of start-up life and have lived through what works, and what doesn’t.

This course is a goldmine for knowledge, worksheets, templates and plenty of tips that I’ve learned along the way!

But, that's not all...

I've got to a point in the course where I want to be working along side it as I feel the modules are great to put into practice straight away! So I've got my plan to increase my social selling and really show people what I am like and what I can do! I loved Amelia's video-it had some really great tips!"
Student
“I'm loving this course! Doing it alongside exam prep and work so I can maintain the gym, therapy/self-development and life in general. I can't wait to get to the part about how to find clients"

"So so helpful! I was due to register my business last night, but life admin took priority! So I will be completing this module today! It has been so helpful having a guide to say ok, consider this next. It's also given me loads of ideas on things I can do to expand my service offering!

I'm going to be doing some work with HR here at work, so if I can get accredited in that, that's another service I can provide!"
