Extractions: There are a variety of reasons why you may want to start a business in your home. Many new businesses are a response to a life crisis, such as a job lay-off, or a way to supplement family income. A successful enterprise requires a plan, thought and persistence. Operating your own business calls for commitment to the business and its needs. Enthusiasm about your product or service is important, but decisions to get involved must include aspects of business management and a thorough assessment of your potential as a business person. The following checklist shows some traits that relate to success in business. Go through the list and check any that apply to you. The more checks you have, the more similar you are to people with successful small businesses. Are there potential problem areas that might require assistance? What are your most obvious strengths? If you lack several traits, develop a plan to add this expertise to your business. An outside consultant may be advisable. Do You Want a Home-Based Business?

Who provides answers to the tough questions about landscape pest control and adapted plants, the environmental topics of daily interest to Coloradans? The state's green industry professionals and Colorado State University Cooperative Extension are a large part of the answer. Trained Master Gardener volunteers are a key part of the Colorado State University system extending information to Colorado residents. The Cooperative Extension Master Gardener program is a major outreach avenue to Coloradans regarding yard care and gardening information. With a relatively small horticulture staff, trained Master Gardener volunteers enable Colorado State University Cooperative Extension to respond to thousands of requests for information from local residents.
