Advantages of being self-employed

Advantages of being self-employed


  • Be your own boss . This advantage is the one that is most repeated if you ask someone who is an individual entrepreneur. In this case, your experience, criteria and knowledge are what count for the development of your work. You do not have a superior indicating how and when you should carry out your work, being able to make the decisions that you consider most appropriate for your career and lead your projects to where you are most interested. You will have total control of your activity, being an entrepreneur gives you the opportunity to get to know your company from all its aspects.
  • Time management . You can decide your schedule, vacations, days off. Freelancers can decide when and where to work, since new technologies make it possible for you to manage your business online, being able to automate processes and work from home. This means that the management of your business is simplified, being able to save on material, rent a place, etc. You can reconcile your professional and personal life more easily. 
  • Work on what you really like and with whoever you want . Constancy, commitment and desire often make it possible for you to work on what you like and what you previously thought impossible becomes a reality. It also gives you the possibility to discard everything that does not interest you or you do not think is appropriate for your business. Something similar can happen with your clients, since you do not have the obligation to do business with people or companies that do not follow your business vision. 
  • Ease of registration . When you start an economic activity, you must necessarily register. When setting up a company, the procedures for this are lengthened in the time that entail economic, registration and notary requirements and it is not automatically. Registering as a self-employed person has a cost of 0, as well as unsubscribing, you can register and unsubscribe unlimited times, taking into account that if you do it for periods of less than a month you will be limited to doing it 3 times a year. In addition, being autonomous does not entail any accounting obligation, contrary to what happens with companies, you only have the obligation to have a book of invoices issued, received and investment goods. You have far fewer formal obligations.
  • Other advantages. New improvements in the conditions for being autonomous. Now the self-employed also have the right to unemployment and sick leave, as long as you pay the minimum security required. You also have the advantage of being able to deduct VAT from the invoices you receive.
