Per my usual pattern this morning, I sip Lavazza espresso and stumble through hundreds of articles in my inbox. I stopped when I came to PR Couture’s post on Going Solo: A Guide to Working Freelance in Fashion PR.

In classic fashionable style, Crosby Noricks successfully outlines the pros and cons of starting your own business and what to realistically expect when owning your own Fashion business.

She also offers resources and much needed life lines for support and business advice.

Crosby writes:

“As a fashion professional, you typically have three options when it comes to working in the industry. You can work on multiple client accounts for a fashion PR agency (either your own or for someone else), in-house for a single brand, or work as a freelance fashion PR practitioner, also known as being an independent contractor. This article is about what to do once you have made the decision to go out on your own.”
