Freelancer
A freelancer is someone who offers their services for a fee and usually with no expectation of a permanent single client, although the working relationship can be ongoing.

It is a form of self-employment, similar to operating a home business versus telecommuting. With that said, a freelancer can work as a contractor, as opposed to home business.

One of the reasons to start freelancing: It's often flexible, allowing you to work part-time or during off-business hours.

Kind of work freelancer offers
- Freelance writer
- Freelance web designer
- Freelance virtual assistant or virtual professional
- Freelance bookkeeper
- Marketing/PR services or social media manager

VAT (Value-Added Tax)
A value-added tax is a consumption tax placed on a product whenever value is added at each stage of the supply chain, from production to the point of sale. The amount of VAT that the user pays is on cost of the product, less any of the costs of materials used in the product that have already been taxed.

Value-added taxation is based on a taxpayers' consumption rather than the their income. In contrast to a progressive income tax, which levies greater taxes on  higher-earners.

Franchise
A franchise is a type of license that a party (franchisee) requires to allow them to have access to a business's (franchisor) proprietary knowledge, processes, and trademarks in order to allow the party to sell a product or provide a service under the business' name. In exchange for gaining the franchise, the franchisee usually pays the franchisor an initial start-up and annual licensing fees.

Franchises are a very method for people to start a business, especially for those who wish to operate in a highly competitive industry like the fast-food industry. One of the biggest advantages of punchasing a franchise is that you have access to an established company's brand name, meaning that you do not need to spend further resources to get your name and product out to customers.

Stakeholders
A stakeholder is a party that has an interest in a company and can either affect or be affected by the business. The primary stakeholders in a typical corporation are its investors, employees, customers and suppliers. However, the modern theory of the idea goes beyond this original notion to include additional stakeholders such as a community, government or trade association.

Stakeholders can be internal or external;

INTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS are people whose interest comes through a direct relationship, such as employment, ownership or investment.

EXTERNAL STAKEHOLDERS are those people who do not directly work with a company but are affected in some way by the actions and outcomes of said business. They include suppliers, creditors and public groups.
