I wouldn't use that money to buy top notch equipment rich. I would advise using it to grow your business though. When you have the profit there then upgrade the equipment.
The biggest problem people seem to have is employing. Now i'm gonna throw a little spanner in the works here. If people downsize it will be down to staff issues mostly.
A couple of paragraphs defining an entrepreneur
As any leading entrepreneur knows, you must care, not scare, to get people motivated. Using fear as a motivational strategy may get short-term, temporary results, but future resentment from angry employees positions you in a very bad place of distrust, where that employee not only becomes unenthusiastic, but eschews any kind of commitment toward you or your business. On the other hand, when workers perceive that you care about them and respect them as valuable associates of your organizational team, they are much more likely to express cooperation, enthusiasm, and commitment for your small business.
In a small business, the proper environment for expansion promotes motivation, encouraging it to blossom and grow. When employees sense caring, appreciation, respect, and acknowledgement, almost all of them return these attributes with total effort, commitment, and loyalty. In a workplace environment where open, honest communication exists, creatively solving problems is part of day-to-day business. And entrepreneurs who provide sincere recognition for employees’ efforts and successes are way ahead of the game.
I have found this to be true. Treat people with respect and you will get the best from them
