Across the UK, thousands of people are reassessing their working lives.
Some feel stuck in unfulfilling jobs.
Some have faced the shock of redundancy.
Others, in retirement, want to stay active, purposeful, and financially secure.

And increasingly, these groups are choosing self‑employment as their next step.

It’s empowering.
It’s flexible.
It’s yours.

But there’s a hard truth that too many discover too late:

Nearly 80% of new businesses fail within three years — and the number one cause is poor cash‑flow management.

People don’t fail because they lack talent, experience, or motivation.
They fail because they run out of money before the business has time to grow.

Why this matters to career‑changers, redundancy survivors & retirees

If you’re unhappy in your job…

Self‑employment can offer freedom — but only if you understand how money moves in and out of your business. Without that, the stress you’re escaping can quickly be replaced by financial pressure.

If you’ve been made redundant…

You may have a payout, savings, or a window of opportunity. But without cash‑flow discipline, that cushion can disappear faster than expected. Many people start strong, only to hit a cash‑flow wall months later.

If you’re retired and want extra income…

Your time, skills, and experience are valuable — but your financial stability matters even more. A small cash‑flow mistake can undermine the very security you’re trying to protect.

The IAE’s 4-part cash‑flow webinar series: your safety net for self‑employment

To support people starting over, the International Alliance of Entrepreneurs (IAE) is launching a four‑part webinar series dedicated to one mission:

Helping you avoid the cash‑flow traps that destroy new businesses.

• How to build a simple, reliable cash‑flow system
• How to forecast income and expenses with confidence
• How to protect yourself from late payments
• How to avoid the “silent killers” of small businesses
• How to create financial stability from day one

This isn’t academic theory.
This is practical survival training for anyone building a new income stream — whether by choice or necessity.
