The Internet offers a widespread range of advice and knowledge that can aid your business.
Learning the ins and outs of your home business is something that can be taught through the Internet.

Maintain adequate communication with your customer base.
Share information, but don't overwhelm them. An occasional newsletter and emails sent when there is news to share are all that's required.

Have the time and capital to sustain your home business for at least the first six months.
Do not take out any money to pay yourself or your bills.

Follow up with your customers to find out what they think of your products.
This will help you improve your business, and you can also use these reviews to create a new section of your website entitled 'customers' reviews'.

Always be the better person. You should never, ever talk down your competition. This looks petty and is exceptionally rude, even if your product has superior quality!

Always write up a business plan. Though your business may be small, that doesn't make it any less of a business, so treat it like one!
Have a clear goal in mind, and outline the materials you'll need and the steps you'll take to get there.
