If you have a small home based business you might be sitting on a gold mine and not even realize it. Almost every business has potential for growth! There are so many ways for your small business to grow - Here are just a few examples ~

1. Find Follow-up products - For example - if you make sweaters for dogs you can also offer shampoo for them or leashes that match. You make and sell candles than get some candle holders wholesale or some fancy lighters. You get the idea.

2. Always be learning new skills. If you make candles now ,try learning to make soaps. 

3. Always be searching for new customers. Join local groups, go to local sports events, and so on. Meet as many new people as you can. If people recognize you and like you than they will most likely want to do business with you. Don't push you business when it isn't appropriate, but do let everyone know what you do. This is great advice for direct sellers or party plan reps.

4. Reward good turns! If one of your customers referred you to a great sale or customer give them something to show your appreciation.

5. Take great care of your customers. Find out what they need and listen to what they say. If you have not heard from a customer in a while follow-up with them. Just call them and ask how everything is . You do not have to push your business,but it does help to let them know you are still around and still doing business.
