Format:Hardcover
This book does not mix words in telling freelancers what to expect, how to survive, and how to make the buisness system work for them. This is a must for any serious self-employeed freelancer (illustrator, graphic designer, or copyrighter). Everything is covered: tax issues, buisness forms, organization, presentations, marketing, bookkeeping, and proper buisness manners.

Format:Hardcover
This book has quickly become the most dog-eared reference on my bookshelf. Foote dazzles with statistics that guide you through the labyrinth of running your own show. Often his advice works in the sense that you are learning how, when or why to do something based on other similar business' stories. I can't recommend this enough.
