Well, this week is my break even week.
I bought my Delta kit used, for 600.00. Now bear in mind, I do not do this full time. I have had my kit for 3 months. Repairs vary from 30.00 to 60.00. In addition have 1/2 covered my advertiseing stuff. Banners etc.
Good luck to the rest if you startups....

Now that you are even........... Let the business checking grow. When I was taking a check, I would only pay myself per job. I would pay myself a percentage of each invoice, 40%. Most will see the big picture and keep it all then is they needed a big purchase, they would not have it... Pay your self like an employee, not a fat cat owning the business.
The harder you work, the more you make and the business gets bigger.
