Ideas for new businessesI was once sitting outside a pub at the Chippenham Folk Festival - our group had been booked, and we were enjoying a quiet pint between events. Many of the others had excellent, well paid and specialised careers, and as we talked about work I realised just how unhappy I was working in a dead-end Civil Service job. Problem was, although my friends had the qualifications and experience, I had no degree and (I thought) no special skills or knowledge - apart from being able to organise and lead musicians. Gradually however the realization dawned that this was in itself a potential marketable skill. Soon I was looking for suitable clients for our band, and the paid hobby grew itself over the years into two specialist entertainment companies.
