They end up working in a mainstream job and never reach their potential, feeling a bit like a square peg in a round hole.

It is important to remember that most people who have chosen to work at a home based business or a home based internet businesses are entrepreneurs and think outside many ‘boxes’. The most successful ones start with a plan or a system and build on it, learning as they go, expanding the ‘box’ to new dimensions and heights. As the ideas fall into place they implement them in their business plan and carry their business beyond expectations. Home business owners should know the value of connecting with their customers. Choose a business that not only allows you to build a relationship with your customers, but is flexible and you can implement and use your ideas.

Re: Trade Shows - Are They Worth It? - HI, I have used trade shows (not participated) to collect potential clients. For example, the Home & Garden Industry is extremely behind the time in regards to their websites. I attended an Home & Garden Expo in Denver and collected all the companies contact information. I plan on cold calling & mailing information to each business. It also gave me time to research the industry more, talk directly to the owners in many cases, and learn more about what they need. Jeff

I can work from home and go out to meet my clients. These times (When I'm out) is the most 'dangerous', because if clients need some files or if something didn't get through email, I'll need to find the nearest internet hot spot (i bring my external hard drive everywhere) to service the client or come up with an excuse. initially it was difficult, working from home and starting up. work was scarce but I knew it was only in the beginning. after 5 months, I have quite a constant flow of work but still the cheques are not that regular but its getting there. I met other people who has started home-based business and they range from travel agents to company secretaries. hope that helps
