Marketing is another factor. How well you succeed will likely be how well you market your products, yourself and your skills. You need to have a marketing plan to drive customers and keep clientele. Your existing customer base will dwindle over time. Once you have your established clientele there will still be other issues to deal with such as competition and pricing.
