Perhaps, the old tried but true Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would have them do to you." In other words, in business, say what you mean. Do what you say. And do it in a timely and equitable way.
Spend every minute of your working hours showing your friends, family, clients and community why this quote is true. "If you think hiring a professional is expensive, try hiring an amateur".
Honesty and professionalism will only get you so far. In a fail or succeed environment these two things are synonymously subjective. Persistence is key. Patience is valuable. Develope a thickened skin and know to be willing to work those odd ball jobs for supplemental income while you grow your "brand" awareness. Thats all there is. Many things lead to awareness. Learning to meet and socialize, remain productive even when there is no real work to do, and never give up. Not being proactive will surely amount to not being noticed.
Good customer service! Do whatever it takes to make a happy customer and go above the rest. If you deliver product/service to them, send a thank you card afterwards. Not an email but a hand written thank you card. It shows you would take the time in this day and age to personally thank them. Know why your service or products are better than the rest and be passionate about it.
really it's not about getting noticed it's just getting yourself out there and branding and building your business and you must have personality and walk with your head high and know what you're talking about....
Be genuine with everyone that you meet. be passionate about your goals and be yourself. I believe when you are genuine and honest with clients or potential clients and not pushy or judgemental, You allow the client to make their own decision about what they should do with regards to what you have to offer.

Service and care for your clients... before, during, and after the transaction.
Honestly, just being yourself. No one else is you. Be yourself. Be honest. I don’t feel like I compete with anyone but myself.
Provide the best quality of service and product for a fair price.
How do you eat an elephant? Reputation goes a very long way. Be honest, work hard and volunteer!
