Business Advice

jools999

Hi, I'm 41 and have just been diagnosed on the ASD spectrum. I'm functional most of the time but get easily overwhelmed. At the moment I'm starting two fledgling businessess but have wasted loads of money on the wrong advice or not understanding terminology etc. I also have a very short attention span and often write lists all over the place so I don't forget things but don't actually get much done!

I'm down to my last penny (I don't qualify for benefits) but need to know about websites, logo designs etc without being ripped off. Are there any resources or mentors who can help people like me have the confidence to run their own business? I feel so overwhelmed I feel like throwing the towel in but can't afford to.

Thanks.

  • WoW. Thank you so much for taking the time to reply so 

    thoroughly. I do have some business support but haven't 

    heard of business enterprise centres so will check that out. 

    I work in beauty from a room at home so need a logo and website

    plus some confidence, perhaps from gaining inspiration from other self employed Aspies so will look at the link you've posted. Just seems crazy that I'd get more help

    if I gave up and claimed benefits which is the last thing I want to do.
