In part one of my series on daily habits of an entrepreneur, I talked about maintaining focus. The second step is to devote more time to actually developing business. Your daily schedule needs to include at least one element tied to revenue-generation, no matter how profitable your business may be.

Few steps to develop your business

• Calling a client to see how things are going and suggesting what kinds of additional services are needed
• Following up on prospects or strategic allies who can provide you referrals
• Attending a networking event
• Sending a promotional email
• Teaching or speaking
• And, of course, blogging!

Frequently, businesses seem to be in feast or famine time periods. Devoting time each day to some kind of business development activity bring with it valuable rewards.
