Do you have to be big to thrive?

Nope.

Hugh McCleod is a freelancer of sorts who writes a blog called Gaping Void that seems to be about blogging about blogging about blogs.  In his archives is this mini-profile of a fellow who makes his own way by vending coffee near a train station in Northern England.

Says Hugh:

“It’s a story about a regular guy who managed to find a simple, sustainable level of personal sovereignty in a small town in Northern England.”

The gurus dub this ‘micropreneuring’ or ‘solopreneuring,’ which is just a whisker away from freelancing.

It’s a small truck, but he’s the one who’s driving.
