one of my biggest mistakes was hiring friends and family who were not serious. I hired them as a favor to them because they needed a job. Yet things went bad and fast. I know one of the unwritten rules is not to go into business with family but I do not fully agree with this. I have had alot of success by partnering up with a family member and a few motivated friends who have the same goals as I do

How often do you all deal with chargebacks, and how do you deal with... ie, internet/phone purchaser makes purchase, then card holder claims it wasn't him
depending what kind of business you can waste alot of money on advertising (spent thousands back in the day on yellow pages/phone book with very little return)...reading up on google/bing etc business site submissions/keywords has been the best free advertising along with a good website. Vehicle wraps have also generated a good amount of business for us.
It usually cost you a dollar to save a dime
