The Hair Industry's Need for VAT Reduction and the Importance of Unity.
Description
In this episode of the Cut to the News midweeker podcast, we discuss why it's so important for everyone in the hair industry to come together and push for a reduction in VAT. We also address the common misconceptions that freelancers are tax dodgers.
Joining us for this conversation is Toby Dicker, co-founder of the Salon Employers Association and its predecessor Save Our Salons. Ruth Lundstrum is also here—she's founder of The Freelance Suite pricing app and a pricing guru in her own right!
