new enterprises, so take note of office expense deductions. Part of the utilities, rent,

expenses.

moment of your day. Set aside time for other people like your family or friends. You need
time to relax. You will surely burn out if you are working around the clock, all week long. Try
to maintain regular business hours so that you avoid these problems.
You need a separate PO Box set up for your home based business. Don't use a home
address when you need to post advertising online! You want to protect both your identity and
your family's identity.
You can engage in personal appointments during the day if you schedule them in. You can
take time off the same as you would at a regular job. You just have to make sure that you
make the time up later.
The Internet allows you to access new information about the home business and your niche
market as soon as it is published. Stay current on new trends and developments.

nothing, your results just aren't going to be as great.
As you've seen, there are many things you can do that will increase your home business
productivity. Use the above advice to begin and maintain a successful home business. Good
luck to you!
