If you have some vendors charging you way too much, it may well be time to search for other vendors. By shopping around and getting better prices on supplies, you can save some cash.
  3. Investing in business – Finally, how much time and money to you invest in your business? As an example, investing in your employees, equipment and more are things that are worth your time. When it comes to employees, the better prepared they are to help folks, the better chance of more sales. The equipment that your company has should also be looked at on an annual basis.
