Determine What Equipment You Can Afford
The type of equipment you choose, the type of operation you have, and the way you operate will be a determining factor in your profitability. So, determining what equipment you will need and even more important what equipment you can afford, it’s of a big importance for your success.

Most importantly, they should identify how much start-up capitals they will have, and base on that, determine what equipment is reasonable and they can afford.
