    Finding clients will be your hardest task in my opinion. Getting recommended by some of your clients is the best form of advertising. If you are working now I would be reluctant to leave a job and head out on my own. Keep your day time job and do the bookkeeping by night. If you get enough clients, then you should consider self employment.

    Good luck.
