Go buy yourself an ExpoDisc and that will address a lot of your concerns. Then work on the lighting.
I love using my Expodisc. It's a great tool to have in the photobag. It works well for the color balance and also for the exposure (it's middle grey; most people forget to recognize that the resulting histogram spike is a perfect indicator for exposure).

I also use have used a color card (I carry the small credit card sized one), a grey card, etc. All get you close into the proper color space and then it's just editing for personal preference from there.

Make sure your monitor is profiled as well. You may think the pic looks great and it can look like hell for everyone else.
