Having alternated between periods of self-employment and corporate employment, Diana learned through study and experience exactly what works to start the money flow. Not only did being a solopro create income, but it boosted her self-confidence, filled in resume gaps and helped her endure a frustrating, dysfunctional job market. Diana shares not only what to do but also what not to do to have your business up and running in a single day.

In addition to coaching others on how they can start to freelance and consult, Diana Schneidman is a freelance writer and editorial consultant specializing in the insurance and asset management industries.
