Don't act as thought everything is a secret
let people know what you do
participate in community activities
take people with you or meet them on the property

Explain what your problems are in your county
soils problems
water table issues
topography
impervious layers

Keep abreast of current technology
continuing education credits
make sure you know rule changes
ask for a program evaluation
quality control is critical
explore alternatives

Know that you will be criticized
this is where a professional pays off
don't be afraid to ask for a second opinion
if you are wrong change it
