1. Spend this time looking at your competition and working out what's different (or what will be different) about your band/act. Your USP if you will. This will pay big dividends when it comes to pitching your act to venues

2. Collect as long a list as you possibly can of the potential venues you'll approach for gigs once you're ready. Getting a venue to say "Yes" when you approach them is a numbers game and the longer your list of targets the better.
