To start your own part time or full time hire business you will need to be realistic about the initial outlay. We speak from our own experience, our sister company The Main Event Marquee Co started in a similar way. A start up figure of between £7,500.00 - £15,000.00 would be reasonable.
A minimum of two Capri Party Marquees, or ideally one of each size would give you a good basis to work from. Other equipment that you will be asked for is listed below with approximate prices. Alternatively, this equipment could be hired in from local suppliers, as required, initially during the business build up phase.

General Guidance
Transport is required, ideally a Van, long wheelbase, high top, low loader,
alternatively 4 wheel drive and trailer would suffice.
Advertising: flyers – free and local papers – and later on Yellow pages.
One of the best ways to promote this product is by donations to local charities, clubs and schools (remember how quick and easy the eureka marquee is to erect). They will normally be happy to allow you to put some literature within the marquee and perhaps a free ad in their programme.
All of the above are simply suggestions but are tried and tested and guarantee success. You should cover your initial outlay in your first full season.
Following our guidelines you should find it impossible to fail.
10 hires of each marquee will cover your initial cost of the marquee.
