Once you have decided where your office is
going to be located, you need to figure out how to stock it
with supplies and equipment, and how to pay for overhead items
like utilities. Sure, a shiny new desk would be wonderful,
but not every business owner can afford all new furniture
when he or she is just starting out. However, there are plenty
of ways to get good office furniture without spending a lot
of money. First, check with local business furniture leasing
companies. Often, they will have used furniture for sale at
prices well below original retail, even though the furniture
may not have been used for more than a year or two and is
in great shape.

Another great resource for gently used office
furniture is thrift shops. Check your local Goodwill or Salvation
Army outlet for furniture that might need just a slight overhaul;
maybe a well-placed nail or new fabric for a seat cushion,
but then will be as good as new. These stores are also great
sources of old filing cabinets, and as you develop your records
management system, youčll definitely need some of those.
