I am getting ready to restart my small business again, after not doing it for 3-4 years.
All the infrastructure is in place. I have the 2 corporations (which have been on idle) All my websites are in place. Yellow pages ad is not, however it's early for that, and the phone book deadline here is march for ad submission, and distribution late summer.
I'm cool on the phone book, 'cause I get a lot more people looking for employment than real jobs.
 
Curious what you folks think is a good (re)starting point.

Ripped,
 
It sounds like your plans are a bit unfocused.  That may be TOTALLY wrong. but that is what it sounds like from the brief post above.  Do you have a vision for these businesses? Do you have short term and long term goals (Pebbles and Mountains)? Have you determined plans to get from where you are today to those goals?  It appears not. but again that may just be my reading of your post.
 
I have a bunch of FREE planning templates on my website www.MyLeadershipTrainer.com Feel free to use them. 
 
Thanks for your time.
Peace

You should most definitely check out our FREE entrepreneur guide since you are starting back into business.  It provides you with a wealth of information.   Well over a dozen government agencies recommend it.   Check it out and tell me what you think.

I have been working toward building my business for a year now. One resource that I've found to be extremely powerful is John Assaraf's OneCoach Business Insights blog. The content is so positive, even in these poor economic times, and very helpful to my small business needs. Here's the site: http://blog.onecoach.com. Enjoy!
