Congratulations! You’ve decided to take the plunge and start your own business! But after the initial high of being your own boss, it’s easy to get bogged down by the cost of doing business. It definitely can be expensive, and various overheads and services can stretch your funds to the limit. Fortunately, there are service providers out there that can help you keep your costs down, maximize productivity, and even look good at the same time.
Here are three costs that can be minimized with their help!
Cost #1: Find a Cost-Effective Rental Solution
The cost of renting a space is often one of the most expensive costs for startups.

The service offers 24-hour accessible units from as low as $240 a month, complete with standard fittings, in various convenient locations.
Cost #2: Warehousing Costs
Many new e-commerce businesses start off by keeping their goods at home. If your inventory is encroaching on your family’s space, it’s definitely time to find a warehousing solution. Work+Store Space also provides affordable warehousing for your inventory. Card-accessed, secure and camera-monitored facilities mean you won’t have to worry about the safety of your stock.
Cost #3: Utility Costs
