When Purity was started , it was roughly $200.00 split between advertising flyers and cards, and mininmal equipment. Thats it, how did you start off? What was your budget? What was your first big purchase? Why?

Crowz started with $3000.00 owner contribution/equity. Bought our license & bonds @ about $122.00 for a year. Purchased b-ball style t-shirts and heat stamped our logo on front & back... 6 each at about $75.00 total. We bought 2 vacuums, white cotton bar towels, industrial size mop bucket, mop & 3 heads, dust mop & 3 heads, a push & regular angled broom, and assorted cleaners. Spent about $100.00 on QuickBooksPro off eBay and maybe $50.00 in office supplies. Wells Fargo messed up our check order, so we got checks, deposit slips and stamp FREE... ;D .... We made and printed postcard flyer's then sent out to 80 businesses in the area at a cost of about $40.00. We got only 1 residential client from that campaign, so it did pay off, but we won't do that again! We then spent $198.00 on membership in the local chamber of commerce, and business took off.
