A Little at a Time

Starting your own bootstrap ceramic business or any business for that matter, takes patience. It is important to set out your goals - in writing - so you know where you are going and where you have come from. Try to do something every day, and even though the progress may be slow, it will be sure.

A good friend noted that the goals he wrote down had a greater chance of getting accomplished than the goals he did not write down. The takeaway from that for me was, I may not get the goal accomplished, but if I write it down a successful outcome is more likely.

An important goal to set is to regularly promote your business. This is easy to forget. Be sure to keep your customer information, so you can let them know of new opportunities from time to time.

With SmoothClay.com, almost all of the preliminary work is done. Once you learn how to make the items, all that is needed is to take one or more of the avenues described in the Operations Guide.

Being persistent, and realizing that success is a journey, and not a destination, will see you through.
Have fun!
