Today, 50% of U.S. businesses are home-based businesses. That number increases to 60.1% when looking specifically at non-employer firms, or companies that don't have any employees.Add the number of employees that work from home and it changes the perception of a home. Buyers are now overwhelmingly looking at how their home can function as a business or workplace. When selling a home, consider how that home will meet the buyer's needs to operate a business there too. We bought our property with that in mind and are getting ready to launch our home-based business in our new town Lake Placid, FL. Our need was to have a property big enough, pretty enough to operate an art studio, hold occasional events, and have amenities already in place for our business.We found it on Lake Huntley, a 1.2 ...

Some great marketing tips!If you prospect a new street, You should mail 3 times in a 3-5 week period and then follow up every two months. if no results you should try a different message. Budget for and take the time to attend your companies national, convention and local sales rallies. It is a great way to network for referrals. Whenever possible you should use a corporate credit card for your expenses that earns points. This way you will get some added value from your every day expenditures. It should be attached to you bank account this way it is always paid on time and there are now finance charges. We are full of valuable information. You should have an outlet that allows you to get this information to the public, such as a blog or social group on the Internet.
