re: Small business owners, what kind of business do you run?

1. Look into the SBA.gov. A lot of govt services purchase video/audio production services. Get a Sam# and see if you are qualified for any certifications, like woman owned, minority owned, vet owned, HUBzone, etc... that could help you win or subcontract on bids. After that, or during it if you need help filling out the paperwork, get one of the sites like winbidspro.com, to help you search open bids for production work.

2. Sales and Marketing aren't the same thing. Come up with a plan to market, and there are companies out there who can even help you target market in social media and professional associations.

3. Think about depreciation before buying most of that production equipment. It's often better to lease it, than it is to own, store, insure, upgrade, replace it.
