3. Marketing your Business. This area is very expansive so I've separated it out a bit below. Don't forget the difference in marketing and advertising. Marketing is adjusting your product/service its packing or presentation to best suit your target market. Advertising is getting them to come see your product or service.

4. Manage your business. Once your business is established, you need to keep up with it to make sure it continues to grow. A business, like many things, is always moving, if it's not going forward it's going backwards. Good management will keep it going the way you want it to.

a. Manage your time. I defer to Franklin Covey for this training. I've attended one of their seminars, and now they have much of that information in the books they offer. It is great and really helped me to budget my time so I can do the things I started a home based business to do.

b. Manage your Money - Home based business Tax breaks. Tax reduction Institute provides this training. During the past ten years, Mr..
