Marketing, marketing, and, also, marketing.

Beer and pizza party for the employees. I'd give what's left to a local charity.
Michael Edlin
A year's supply of paper.
Sam Edwards
A trip away to all the workers for all their hard work.
Travis Fritzel
Pay ourselves to network for two weeks: go to HOAs, property management companies, and new builders, always leaving a good impression and a few cards.
Jorge Perez
Launch my business stronger … marketing and advertising is a must. Save 10 percent for a rainy day. Wrap trailer and truck or at least get some stickers for advertising my company.
Bernie Martin
Give my showroom a makeover, upgrade my website and give each employee a $100 bill.
Greg Burr
Put it toward company health insurance.
David H.W.
A down payment on a Ram ProMaster!

The best investment I have made so far is my Power Drive from Bona. If I had 10K I would buy another one, another edger and a second dust containment unit and get another crew going, because mistakes are pretty hard to make with that tool.
Rob Griswold
Upgrade my dustless system, pick up a Lagler Flip and wrap my truck.
Scott J. Walker
Marketing and emergency backup savings.
Jhordana Mendez
Learn!!! Education always pays back.
Christie's Hardwood Flooring
Give it back to the employees—the ones who make the business run!

Marketing and a website! A trailer. A nice bonus for my guys.
Tony Horsman
Get Epochs for all of the sanding crews and Powernail Flex Rollers for all of our installing crews.

I would chat with my crew and ask them what they think we need to improve with in the way of tools or cars to make life easier and better for us.
George Gav F. Kavetsos
Tools, tools … oh … and tools! At the moment my shortages are the K&T Planfix Pro55 and the Dewalt DWV012 vacuum.
