Agape Wholesome Foods- This is Getting Expensive

I got a Shelby County business license yesterday- $15.00
I need a Bartlett business license- ?
I am buying a website from iPage- 2 years for $84.00 ( I think I am getting the 1 year plan- $54)
How does all this work in my plan?
1. Website, domain name, and professional email.... so I can put them on.....
2. Mailings, business cards, and eventually the machines..... so I can....
3. Have literature to give to locations where I will put the machines.... then I will...
4. Contract with a high traffic location..... then I will...
5. Buy a machine :)

1. Come up with a logo and website to refer possible locations to.
2. I am really excited about the pitch- "Earn 15% of sales from Agape Vending. No cost to set up, no cost to maintain, NO COST!"
3. Needs to get started: business license- location- machine- stock- machine wrapping.

Possible locations: YMCA Collieville, Downtown, Cordova; Methodist Hospital; St. Francis Hospital; St. Jude Hospital; Shelby Farms @Pine Lake; LeBonheur Hospital; Fed Ex Forum; Target House; Ronald McDonald House; schools; 24 Hour Fitness; French Rivera Spa, Simon Malls: World Overcomers, Life, Hope Church, other churches; Streets Ministries: banks; Orion and other banks and credit unions; Jewish Community Center; Desoto Athletic Club
