Renewed Energy
Business has been good - not great - but good and steady. Lots of referrals of late and that always makes me feel good. Getting a favorable referral from a customer is a great validation for the work you did - at least that is the way I look at it.
I still question if this venture, ACE Computer Services will ever be a profitable venture. I don't lose money with it but I certainly don't make much either. Breaking even would be the best way to describe it. Raising rates is an idea but I really want to stick to my affordable roots - one of the main reasons I started this in the first place.
But that said I have discovered a new found energy of late. I've invested a ton of time in to research and reading and been more active with my ACE Blog. Because of that I have been really into the learning and business side - expanding the business through new mediums like Twitter and Facebook, learning about new and emerging technologies and expanding my own technical knowledge - things like that. So as an educational experiment ACE Computer Services continues to reward.

Hi Alice - thanks for the comment and suggestion. I am in the Central Jersey Network but I have used Facebook much more for social connections - old friends, etc. than pushing any business interests. Aside from a link to my main site I have not done anything else there yet but I have been considering doing some more.
