Legal Services: It is a very bad idea to pinch pennies when it comes to legal counsel. The legal advice you get early on, including the form of organization for your business, is critically important and hard to undo. Make sure that however much money you have, you spend it well on legal counsel.

Good People: Spend money on hiring good people and creating strong partnerships. If you add one bad apple to a company of four people, it can ruin your company.

Design: From your letterhead to your website, Is is an extremely smart investment to spend the money for good design. Using clip-art logos or a clunky website designed by your best friends cousin can scream amateur. Make sure that from the start your business looks as successful as you want to be.

Of course, thats not to say you should break the bank on these essential elements but keep in mind that you should always choose quality over price.
