With a limited company generating £100k/year in revenue, I’m curious how much a contractor would earn after salary tax? (assuming no admin/accounting costs)

In my understanding, it's not that it's illegal to hire a person as a contractor, it's just that it can be re-qualified by a judge as an employee, if some working conditions are met.

For example in France, which is known for its labor code that protects employees much better than other countries, here are some conditions that can lead to this: - Proven relationship of subordination - The contractor is only working for your company - Poorly written contract (specifically, obligation of means vs obligation of results)

I'm the founder of https://www.scrapingbee.com/, an API for web scraping.

At the beginning we had a banner on the dashboard with a CTA to book a call with me. To incentivize users to book the call, we offered free API credits: https://twitter.com/PierreDeWulf/status/1329765250707623939/...

I had 100+ calls with users in the first months, it helped us a lot to understand our market, what they needed etc.

It worked so well that we had to remove the free credit incentive because taking those calls took all my time.
