In Australia in 1997, there were fewer than 300,000 soloists. Today we number more than 900,000 - a trend that's mirrored in the US and UK, where around 70% of small businesses are run by one person.

Combining motivational and practical advice, Flying Solo explores the habits and behaviours of successful soloists; explodes some of the myths of marketing, time management and networking; and explains how to thrive as an independent professional.
