I Dropped the Ball on Work at Home Tips, Sorry

You probably noticed a couple of weeks ago when I finalized (for now) my Business Card design, I had started the series Work at Home Tips. And I’m sure you noticed also that the Print Your Own Business Cards post was the only entry in the list.
No excuses, I was remiss in my follow through on this series. Granted I have been a little busy, but still I shouldn’t have just dropped the ball. So, once a week I will post a Work at Home Tip on Monday’s (seems like a good day).
These are some of the ideas I have so far…
- Form a Business Plan
- Know your Customers
- Know Your Market (Competitors)
- Dealing with Friends, Family and the Mailman
There will be plenty more, but what I would like is some Ideas from You on what you think would be helpful to a Start-up or even an experienced Work at Homer. Let me know in comments what you would like me to cover.

The nice thing about a dropped ball is that it tends to bounce back; all ya gotta do is catch it. I’m glad you’ll be talking about business plans because it’s one of those basics that people (ok, I) seem to stumble with (ignore).
Actually, at first, I thought you were going to start out with something like “Re-print Your Own Business Cards”

Ahh, the incomplete blog series… been there an done that a few times myself. Heck, I’ve done the incomplete *blog* thing.
If you’d like to, I’d love to read an article or two about keeping the finances separate… I’ve still got the professional mixed in with the personal, and any suggestions would be awesome.
Thanks, Joe.

Hey Carolyn,
I don’t know bout you but I keep rewriting my business plan. I should fininsh things and then come up with new ideas. and No, reprint cards assumes that I am going to KEEP those ugly things.

Hey Lyman,
That’s one reason for the post, I’m more likely to actually follow through with something I have posted.
Financial separation is a great idea for a post, I will definately do that one soon.

Joe, if I had a business plan to rewrite, I’d be pleased. It’s one of those things that I know little enough about that it’s formidable. Alas, serendipity isn’t a good substitute.

It’s great that you’ve started a part of your plan. If we are not sure, we can always take one step at a time to be more aware of our fast changing environment..

Hey Gina,
That’s the only way to do it as far as I know, one step at a time.
Thanks.

Hey Joe, I can always use info on organizing the home office.

Hey Adam,
(mostly)
Stay tuned. I already have that on the list, but first I have to experiment to see if I can get organized.
*I hope everyone knows that’s a joke!*

Great ideas. I’m sure they will make a good guideline.
I agree with the one step at a time. I also do things that way and it’s really helpful.
Good luck on those ideas.

Hey Helen,
Today’s post just went live, it’s about Forming a Business Plan. That probably should have been #1, but…
One step at a time, right.
