Petersfield, Hampshire (I-Newswire) January 18, 2011 - Kit released to help thousands more become their own boss
At a time when the number of people starting a business is at a record high*, small business publisher, Brightword Publishing, launches a Start Up Kit as the perfect purchase for anyone resolving to become their own boss.

With more redundancies and pay freezes on the way, there's never been a better time to start a business and benefit from the freedom and flexibility it brings, as well as the financial reward.
Founder of Enterprise Nation and author of the Start Up Book, Emma Jones, says:
“We are seeing people take redundancy and use this as the motivation to go self-employed. Other people are keeping hold of the day job and building a business at night and weekends. This will be a good year for enterprise in the UK as many more people decide to take control of their working life and turn a passion, hobby or skill into a way of making a living. Whether you're planning to do that full time or in your spare time, this Kit will show you how.”
