Dear Farillio member,

On 29th July 2020, you asked our inspiring guest Alex Till on the Go Far Fast Show:

"I’ve been a freelancer, running my business as a limited company for years. I pay my taxes and I’ve always been really responsible about running my business. But I’d have been better off working for someone else or being a sole trader under the government’s relief schemes. Do you think what’s happening to the #ForgottenLtd businesses is fair?"

And Alex said:

Be mighty always, Farillio

Transcript:

“No, it's not fair. There's a lot of discussion going on around this. One of the things which we need to do is actually raise that voice of the freelancer and get it promoted in a very significant way. There is a significant amount of people out there who need support. If you feel you're forgotten, be noisy. Should they feel downhearted? No! Be passionate about what you do. Be passionate about what you're saying because that's the only way we can instil change.”

Ask your question:

If you have any questions that you'd like us to ask in a future Go Far Fast Show, send us a DM on Twitter or on LinkedIn. We'd love to hear from you!
