You won\u2019t have an employer to find and assign jobs to you anymore; you have to bring the work in all by yourself. That means becoming a shameless self-promoter. Self-employment is not compatible with keeping a low profile.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Tips for getting work<\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Pump your network.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Think about your employment history and make a list of everyone you can remember who might give you work. Find them online (or in your contacts) and send them an email or text about your new self-employed status. Voice calls are also effective, if you\u2019re comfortable with spending a lot of time on the phone. If you can, set up a meeting to cement the relationship.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Choose a name.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Even a one-person enterprise needs a name (brand). It makes you look credible and professional. Best-practice is to choose a name that\u2019s available as a .co.nz web domain. Use the government\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.business.govt.nz\/onecheck\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ONECheck online tool<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to see if your favourite naming options are available. If you\u2019re short on ideas, have a brainstorming session with friends and family members.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Get a website. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even the tiniest businesses need a website these days. It\u2019s important for marketing and credibility. If you read up about SEO (search engine optimisation) and learn how to tune your site to attract Google searches, your website can become the marketing channel that never sleeps. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.afirmo.com\/nz\/resources\/how-to-create-a-website-for-your-small-business\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">More about building a website.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Sign-write your vehicle.\u00a0 <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The car, ute or van you use most often can be branded with your business name, mobile number and web address. Cheap options include vinyl transfers and magnetic signs. If you want to go the whole hog, get your vehicle vinyl wrapped with a stand-out design. Print companies that do vinyl wrapping often offer design services as part of the package.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Advertise. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on the business niche you occupy, you can use traditional channels &#8211; like local papers, radio or billboards &#8211; to advertise. But the new way to get business is with digital marketing through Google Ads, LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram. A business listing on Google Maps is also a must-get.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Word-of-mouth. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tell everyone you know that you\u2019re working for yourself. They might know people who could use your services.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Paying your own tax<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another big change in your life will be paying income tax related to your self-employment. As an employee, income tax payments are handled by your employer\u2019s payroll person. As a freelancer or sole-trader, tax payments are your responsibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your first year of self-employment will probably be part of a year, unless you timed your launch for 1 April (the start of the NZ tax year). During your first year \u2013 or part-year \u2013 you don\u2019t have to pay tax as you go. However it\u2019s wise to put some of your earnings aside, because tax bills will happen eventually. Read more about paying tax during your first year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Doing GST returns<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When your income as a self-employed individual (freelancer, contractor or sole trader) reaches or passes $60,000 in any tax year you are obliged to register for GST. Once registered, you need to add 15% GST to all your invoices and do a GST return every two or six months. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.afirmo.com\/nz\/resources\/what-is-gst-getting-your-head-around-gst-in-new-zealand\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn about GST registration and how to do GST returns.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Paying ACC<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it might be tempting to say \u201cI don\u2019t need ACC\u201d, opting out is not an option. As a self-employed person you have to pay ACC levies. To work out how much you need to pay, ACC gets information from Inland Revenue after you\u2019ve done your annual tax return. There are two types of cover available \u2013 CoverPlus, the default option; and CoverPlus Extra. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acc.co.nz\/for-business\/understanding-your-cover-options\/types-of-cover-for-self-employed\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Find out about ACC payments on the ACC site.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Getting insurance<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nobody\u2019s going to pay you sick leave as a self-employed person, so anything more than a couple of days off in a row is really going to mess with your income. That\u2019s why some self-employed people get income protection insurance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on your profession, you might also need to get professional indemnity insurance or another type of liability cover. Working out what types of insurance you need starts with identifying the risks that could derail your business. Go to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.afirmo.com\/nz\/resources\/category\/risk-insurance\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Afirmo\u2019s Learning Hub<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for\u00a0 insurance for self-employment and small business articles.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Continuing with KiwiSaver<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re not obliged to continue contributing to your KiwiSaver scheme, but it might be a good idea. Retirement is going to happen one day and it could be hand-to-mouth if you don\u2019t have savings. You won\u2019t get the employer contribution any more (because you are your own employer!), but you will still get a government contribution every year for every dollar you put in, up to a maximum of $521. The easiest way to keep KiwiSaver ticking along is to set up an auto payment of at least $50 a month (to get the maximum government contribution). Talk to your KiwiSaver provider about what you want to do.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>It\u2019s all easier if you join Afirmo<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wherever you are at with your plans for self-employment, joining Afirmo is going to make things easier.
