Is starting up a freelance personal training agency in singapore viable?

There already are such agencies around. They provide personal trainers who meet you at your gym, your home or your office but there is room for more such agencies so if you're thinking of setting one up, go for it. The key thing to work on is getting enough trainers and getting a large enough client base.

Yes, register yourself at www.getafreelancer.com. You may have to bid for project though.\n\nSince you are working on 3D animation, it is advisable to compile your works as your portfolio. Have a web site for this purpose though. This is pretty handy if you want to convince the clients since they can have a look at all your works before assigning you as their developer.\n\nHope this helps.

In Singapore, always assume that the Government will do something like that. You can host your online store anywhere in the world to go around this. Its also faster and cheaper. It is just a simple matter of declaring your income of your online business.

I think it is a good idea if you are really involved and want to do it. I would suggest starting by doing a few parties for free, and then once you get some business, start charging. Good luck!

One of the minimum legal requirements for all businesses is that the company owner / creater is of legal adult age, which you are not, however you can legally contract your services out by freelance as a self employed minor, given that you do not need to have a separate legal entity (company) to work self employed. The first and most important thing to all business ventures is to establish an income, and keep cashflow coming in as greater in volume than the cashflow going out. If one of these fails, you end up in debt and can spend your life climbing out. In order to establish income, you must have people paying you, in exchange for goods or services, in your case web design. Web design clients can be aquired by advertising your services as available to the public, particularly targeting your audience, namely people who either do not have a web page, or have an old, pathetic web page. One way to advertise for free is to create a really good (your best ever) web page, and send a link in an email to organisation email addresses. This is called SPAM, and there are some laws against it, but it is so accepted in todays society that unless you SPAM the antiSPAM squad at the police department, with your name, address and phone number on the email, your probably going to be ok. you can also buy bulk (1000s) of current email addys for $10 on the net, but I suggest you use PayPal or something.\nRemember, the less of your income you spend on yourself, the more you can spend on increasing the amount you make in any given period, so be smart about where you apply your capital, and you could be the next Bill Gates in 20 years easy.

I have an excellent business opportunity for you.  The start up fee is your membership, plus $49, which includes your training.  It is a business that actually works itself.  If you are interested, email me and I can send you some information.

Yes. Just look in the local newspaper and apply for them. A lot of business's would prefer people with no experience so that they can train you the way that they want you to work.

The first thing is to decide what kind of business you're trying to register. Depending on whether you are registering a private limited, proprietorships, partnership, etc there are a few steps to follow. One good place to start is http://www.business.gov.sg/EN/StartingUp/RegisterYourBusiness/index.htm\n\nIf you're not sure and willing to spend some money, you can get a corporate secretary to settle everything for you. That should cost you anything from $150 - $500.

Yes but you have to open proper accounts with banks in Singapore, Singapore Exchange (SGX) and Central Depository (CDP).

No, i have had a personal trainer for 3 years and am currently studying to be one myself. Trust me, if you stick to the plan he gives you and show results that is all the thanks they need but still Thanks for the guidance goes along way. Nevertheless, i give my trainer a bonus in a christmas card every year for his efforts.

I started my own businessabout six weeks ago.  It's a transcribing business and probably of no use to you whatsoever but the best thing you can do is to get in touch with the Inland Revenue's Help for Newly Self Employed people and they will send you out a starter pack.\n\nSpeaking from experience, the best ever thing I did was to start up my own business.  I still work full-time but work on my own business on an evenings and weekends.\n\nMaybe it would be an idea to gain employment first after you leave the forces to ensure guaranteed income prior to actually taking the step.\n\nBest of luck.

Hi!\n\nWell, I presume this will be a website showing you off, vs. a generic download site...\n\nSuccess will all depend on how well you market yourself, how "close" you make your members feel and how fresh you keep your content. \n\nI knew a girl who lived off of her web revenue for a couple of years... she was considerably overweight, but even with that, she was able to get enough monthly memberships to make around 30K / yr with almost NO marketing, web expertise, etc.\n\nHow much to start? Hard to say, but if you start small and build up, you can begin for virtually no money. \n\nDo you know how to do web coding, etc? \n\nI too am considering a concept for a site, but it will take months of planning and more money than you will need, because no one wants to see this guy "nekkid"..  :)\n\nFeel free to contact me with any add'l questions.

On your own, just pitching ideas would be hard. You can, however, apply in a proper ad agency or media "hot shop" - ideas based agencies - etc. \n\nYet it seems to me that you first have to get to know the business. Raw ideas are worth nothing from people who are NOT in the industry. Your idea will be taken and implemented without even a thanks. This is because people already have all the ideas, no matter how unique we think our idea is, just searching the net with a few keywords will reveal someone's already at it. What people need is your ability to IMPLEMENT ideas. \n\nCan you do that? You can if you already have a reputation, a portfolio, and connections. There's is nothing with someone demanding that because the truth of the matter is that people with only ideas simply don't deliver, and no buyer can take the risk. \n\nIf you are passionate about ideas, and think you can do it on a consistent basis - rather than just come up with "better ways to make the ad i saw on TV" - you may have something going for you. It will take discipline and time, there is no short-cut in this business.\n\nFreelancing might be a good way to start. Internships are another. At any rate, build a protfolio. If you are already working and in a related business (added bonus), bounce ideas off other creative people in agencies and see if they are interested and want to buy your ideas. \n\nIf they think it's all steam and air, don't worry. You may be original and creative, just elsewhere. Keep believing, and focus on your strengths, not weaknesses. No one buys a weakness. Also check the link below. It's cynical but true.

sure this is viable, and would just mean you have to complete a tax return each year to declare all your income. i did my first tax return online earlier this year and it was quite simple.\nif you are interested in a short course on starting a business & business planning which you could do from home around your work, check out the site below...
