Starting a mixing service question

I enjoy mixing and have done a good job mixing low end projects for myself and others. If I wanted to cater to the lower end market, what quality of gear would I need? I currently use Yamaha HS80m's, Presonus interface, Logic 8 (can go to PTLE as well). Any advice?

1) Wrong forum.

2) Without stating the obvious, if you need to ask the question, are you ready to offer the service?

I asked advice on what kind of gear. I will start up small (obviously) with local people I know. Everyone seems fine with my mixes thus far...but what gear improvements (I know developing mixing skills is first priority) would would see the most noticable improvements. The previous answer was a waste..no useful info whatsoever.

If you're doing a good job with what you got, then you're off to a perfectly good start. Your ears and your attitude sell your studio, not your gear.
