Small business owners have to watch their cost like a hawk. It's very easy to get into critical situation when cash reserve becomes low and you can't pay your employees or vendors. These are great ideas. I have few more suggestions in addition to these - delay the need of any purchase to the extent possible, lease as much as you can versus buy, share with others if possible if you must buy, optimize the use if you cannot share with others. The approach of delay -> rent -> share -> optimize can help you cut down your costs.
