Title: Do you rent work.?
Post by: geefree on February 14, 2009, 01:47:00 pm: Hi,

Does anyone rent work out.... or rent off someone,

if so, could you please tell me how it works,

ie, how much would it be to rent £1000 worth of work of someone,.... how does it work regarding tax etc.

Does anyone do this?

Thanks.

Gary.

when ive been selling i had people ringing me up wanting to rent,but i wouldnt go down that road ,if they do a bad job and lose customers it reflects on your good name and makes the round smaller
or it could well work the other way, they do a good job and you make money and still have the work. It is all down to the risks you take and how you manage the risks
