2) Stock your working space with materials. This sounds basic, perhaps, but one underlying element of success is that you have easy access to the tools, materials and other resources you need.

Create professional marketing materials. Be courteous and pleasant in all customer-facing interactions. Basically, be someone that people want to do business.

7) to automate your business as much as possible. Of course, you're only one person (at this time) and can have a lot of extra time to take care of every detail.
