I am a business consultant and the founder of Your Tech Neighbour- Steve Dean.
My professional focus is on empowering sole traders and independent professionals across the UK—from Electricians–Plumbers & Gas Engineers to landscape gardeners and creative freelancers, to eliminate Revenue Loss and build sustainable, profitable businesses.
With decades of experience in digital operations and business strategy, I recognised that many self-employed professionals were unintentionally subsidising their clients’ projects by failing to account for ‘invisible’ overheads like travel, equipment maintenance, and essential administrative time.
To help you identify these hidden costs and protect your earnings:
I developed the UK Day Rate calculator as a free, transparent utility. Whether you are operating locally in Bristol or serving clients across the country, I invite you to plug your figures into the calculator to regain control of your pricing and secure a professional take-home pay that accurately reflects your true expertise.
