Hang in there, Jeff. The first few years are the hardest. I have less business sense than most, and after my first 6 months my wife asked, "When are you going to get a real job?".

Don't give up on advertising even though it seems that you're burning money you don't have. Carry business cards and hand them out to anyone with a pulse. Talk to your friends, people at church, join groups, etc.

Until you get established, think about doing anything to survive. Sometimes the little old lady will ask you to hang a shelf. I used to tell people "I do windows".
