But, if you have moved from one state to another, do check up on it -- employee regulations can vary widely from state to state. Check with your local and state employment departments, taxing agencies and occupational health office to make sure your bases are covered.
The client issue is a little trickier. Not only do you need those contacts, but you need to know that they will be hiring. Use the resources at your disposal to ferret out just what is going on in your industry.
Yes, we do stress "industry". There is no way to be everything to everyone, so do carve out your niche carefully. Your success will be very dependent on the success of your chosen industry, so choose it well.
