Nice turnaround!

If you currently own a business and had the chance to go back to when you first started what would you do differently? What advice would you give to your self? Would you not even do it knowing what you know now? I'm starting this thread to try and get an understanding of what being a...

Mark, any and all comments are welcome from anyone. I know a lot of this comes down to a personal choice but I'm still looking for input on the feasibility of making 1000/wk and why or why you wouldn't quit your job to do this full time. I may make a 2nd thread along the lines of current...

Good point! Trying to determine that line between jumping in with a basic plan and having a concrete structure is always tough.

Thanks for all the kind replies. I know that having a cushion is the best way to go about this so it is presenting me with a chicken and egg scenario. I have to decide what level I can start out with on the side to generate some income and word of mouth but I will need to build up my equipment...
