Yes. But not as much as I'd like...

Market and Network your business!

One of the best ways to increase your business is to ask for referrals, network ALL THE TIME, and market to the target audience you've chosen. Personally, I market to local businesses and I get a lot of repeat business and referrals. Loan signings are secondary in my target market - they're time consuming and I make more money faster servicing local businesses.

If you're not comfortable networking I suggest you join a networking group for a year. Check out BNI (Business Network International) for a location near you: http://www.bni.com, or google for other networking groups in your area.
