Try to make your product or service unique so that you stand out in the mind of a customer. If your product and service is similar to other businesses in the area, then try to make your advertising unique.
To be noticed or remember (in good ways) will set you apart from the rest eventually making you more money for a successful business.

S is for SUCCESS
Success for your business can be done. Stick to your business plan, schedules and don't spend all your profit on vacations and such at least not for the first two years.....you must put back in to the business in the beginning in order for it to grow and sustain itself.
R is for REST
You must take a day off once a week. You will burn out, cause family resentment and your business turns into a "job". Take my word.....I give you and you need to give yourself permission to take a day off to rest. I believe it is important to your customers to take the same day every week so they don't have to guess when you are open. This also makes it easy to mKe appointments for yourself or family since you will always know which day you are closed. This doesn't mean that you can't change the day if you need to.....just make to give your customers a heads up in plenty of time.
Q is for Quit
No I don't mean your business (unless it is creating money or family issues) but QUIT over working. Set those business hours and days then stick to them.
P is for Prioritize
Make a 3 lists (One for Family, one for Self and one for Business). Then number items in order of importance for each list. Rearrange when things are completed and add new items (re numbering if necessary).
O is for Organization
In order for your business to be successful and run smoothly, you must be ORGANIZED:
Keep records, receipts and invoices
Use a calendar for meetings, deliveries, due dates and
Supplies should be organized so there is no duplication or running out of inventory
Organization will save you time and money.
