The following are some of the more common mistakes made by ISVs and software developers...
1. Lack Of A Plan
Many software developers start out simply by writing an application to make their own lives easier, and often don't really have a "plan" to turn that idea into a business. But they later decide to do just that, and like any other business, a plan is necessary in order for a software company to succeed. Create a development road-map, a marketing plan, and a business plan, all of which lay out goals, feature priorities, and a time frame for accomplishing specific parts of the plan.

I'm willing to bet you have habits today that are the direct result of your mother drilling them into you. Every mom has a few pet peeves that it becomes habit to avoid.

Taxpayer Advocate Service (IRS)
A Resource for Small Businesses with Lingering Tax Problems
Did you know that last year, the Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assisted approximately 17,000 small businesses throughout the United States? Was yours one of the businesses helped? If not, why? Business returns can be difficult to understand and challenging to prepare. Unresolved tax issues with the IRS can be frustrating, affect profits and stifle the growth of a successful business.
The Taxpayer Advocate Service, commonly referred to as TAS, is an independent organization within the IRS dedicated to helping you resolve and prevent tax problems. TAS was created to ensure tax problems not resolved through normal channels are promptly and fairly handed. We also assist with hardship situations created by taxes.
Unfortunately, many business owners have never heard of TAS and, because of this, do not realize how they can benefit from our services. Perhaps you are someone who has never heard of us before - why not call us and see if we can help?
