"I made the decision to take control of my own
destiny and that's what I'm doing. I work hard but
I take time off when I want and spend a lot more
time with my family than was ever possible before."
- Paul Barlass, Auditel consultant since 2006
According to the Chartered Institute of Management, UK managers average at least one hour of unpaid overtime and spend at least 30 minutes commuting to work every day. Does that sound familiar? If so, you're spending more than 50 unpaid days every year either doing overtime or travelling to the office; precious time you could be spending with friends and family, pursuing personal goals or enjoying leisure activities.
Running your own home-based Auditel consultancy, however, means you can take back control of your life and set yourself free from long and unpredictable working hours. And because you're working for yourself every hour you put into your business will be rewarded.
Working for yourself from home is hard work but the potential rewards are enormous, not just in terms of income but in terms of achieving the work-life balance you want. Among the many benefits are:
Not only will you avoid working to other people's deadlines, office politics and the daily commute but at the end of each day you will know that every ounce of effort you have put in has been for the benefit of you, your business and your family. Just imagine the sense of fulfilment and contentment that comes from being your own boss and controlling your own destiny.
"Friends who still work for big firms ask me whether I miss the security and whether it's worrying working for myself. I tell them that I've never felt more secure than I do now." - Daryn Dodge, Auditel consultant since 2001.
"When asked to review the use and expenditure, the experience and knowledge Ashley and the Auditel team brought to the table was impressive and the way in which they collaborated with us in making the changes was comforting. This all resulted in substantial savings - in the region of £50,000 - which have been achieved without compromising the quality or service we receive from our suppliers or disrupting the smooth running of our business." - Malcolm Boniface, DPB for England and Wales Site Manager
