Yes I am a freelancer by definition, but as someone wise once said, my services aren’t “free”, my name isn’t “lance”, nor am I in any way familiar with this medieval weapon. The term ‘freelancer’ itself actually originated in the Middle Ages when mercenary knights, with no allegiance to anyone in particular, would take their lances into battle for various kings, princes, lords and even wealthy land owners – essentially for whoever paid them the most. Our modern day knights constitute a multitude of business professionals ranging from designers, programmers, writers and actors to photographers, journalists, consultants and many other solo professions.

 Expectations for 'better' turnover but availability of credit still an issue. A third of small businesses expect turnover to be better over next six months, and yet over half rate the current business environment as "poor" or "very poor," highlighting that access to credit is still a worrying issue for Ireland's small business community. Those are amongst the findings published on February 25th by the County and City Enterprise Boards as part of their bi-annual Business and Banking Confidence survey, which included the views of over 1,200 sole traders and small business owners throughout the country.
