Be creative. Perhaps you will want to offer comprehensive clerical support services to your clients in addition to word processing: do their mailings, keep their client lists up to date, or even do some light bookkeeping or accounting. If you feel comfortable writing, perhaps you can write resumes for your clients or do other free lance writing as the need arises. Don”t limit yourself, be flexible and you”ll find yourself branching out, perhaps in spite of yourself.
The, calculate your best prices on paint, sandpaper, wood and even tools and supplies. It may be that buying glue in 5 gallon cans will save you a good deal — unless there is a spoilage problem. In this department, the most expensive thing you can do is to keep buying from the same source without constantly checking — and figuring how to get more for your money.
Go to your local manufacturers. They always have scraps, leftovers, and close-outs that you can pick up for a good price - even for free. You may be able to recycle scraps into something else. For example, fabric scraps can be made into quilts or pillows. Leather scraps can be made into clothing, bags and belts.
Don”t forget that many people don”t know the difference between a single or doubled spaced pages. To some clients, a resume may be a single spaced page, but it takes a lot longer to type than a business letter and you will want to charge more for resumes. You will want to establish an hourly rate for tables, transcription and other more time-consuming jobs.

Rug hooking and braiding are good ways to use up lots of fabric scraps and discards. They″re something you can do in your spare time - even in front of the television. For those who are good with woodworking: wooden boxes, cutting boards, stationery racks and spice holders sell fast at the craft shows - they″re wonderful presents.
