Your dream is to start your own business. You have spent your entire business career working for others and in every job you feel as though you can do it better. You believe you are smarter, have a greater work ethic and can make more money if only you were your own boss. You know how to get the job done because you are the one who executes. But do you know how to run a business? Do you know what it takes to build a brand, hire and manage employees, make the day to day decisions that come with owning a company including such mundance tasks as answering the phones, responding to customers and vendors, paying the bills, keeping product in stock, executing services, finding time for marketing and delivering your stock and trade etc. etc.You guessed it - it takes more than a good idea to launch a business and keep it going. Here are 10 Success Strategies[ for Women Entrepreneurs](http://www.womensmedia.com/work.html) that will get you thinking in the right direction. I suggest you write one down each day and focus on how it will change how you work. Finally, I would add to this list the importance of learning how to toot your own horn. Every day take some time to say something positive about yourself to co-workers, to higher-ups, to the media, if possible, and any one else you meet. If you don't promote yourself who will. And, if you truly want to be a successful entrepreneur you need to know that the number one thing you must accomplish is self promotion.
