How To Start A Low Voltage / Home Automation Business

If any of you have your own LV / home automation business, I'd love to hear any tips/tricks/advice/etc. as to how you got started...
 
I've been in the software industry for 20+ years.  A few years ago I pulled over 30,000' linear feet of LV wires in my new home and fully automated my home:

• Insteon Lighting
• Elk M1 Security Alarm Panel w/ 100's of motion sensors (dual purpose security and lighting control), door/window contacts, etc.
• Whole Home Audio, Video, Networking
• Security Cameras
• etc.

Pulling wire was a bigger job than I expected but I throughly enjoyed the experience.
 
What is the best way to start your own LV & home automation company?  I checked state laws and I don't need to be licensed (unless I do security systems).
 
Thanks,
Cam

Paul made the transition from DIYer to business owner about 10 years ago.  Remarkable work.
