7 Strategies For Small Business Owners

Image
Getting a small business off the ground is challenging to say the least. Here are some tips which will prepare the ground for running a successful small business. Have Goals This is where it all starts – the foundation for success. Know exactly where you are heading. What will the business ‘look’ like in the future? How will you know when your business is a success? When you wake up in the morning, do you know what actions you have to take to get you on the road to success? Take Action The difference between success and failure is down to the actions you take. The failures in life are the people who know what they have to do but never do it. The successful small business owners are people who take action on their ideas, ones who never say, “I wish I had done …” Seek Feedback There is a saying that feedback is the breakfast of champions.

7 Key Tips To Succeed in Your Small Business

Economic changes have occurred and business will never be the same. Business owners have needed to adapt and change. Being different helps to survive. The fundamentals are the same however. Here are seven tips for success: 1. Have a written plan.   Going into business without a written plan is just a dream.

Create a proforma to determine cash for future needs so you have enough cash on hand. 2. Set out your plan but don’t be married to it.   A plan is necessary to lay out your path but you need to stay flexible and adjust as needed. Be open. 4. Account for everything.   Stay on top of your systems and numbers. Train your people to do the same and be consistent. Make good business decisions based on the documented facts and numbers. Do not go into business until you know how much cash you need and you have it available. 3. Listen

How Can I Value My Small Business?

There are a few ways to value a business: Asset Value: Calculate the value of all of the assets and arrive at a price for assets only. Discounted inventory value: Assess the current value of inventory and discount it for quick sale. Income Value (most common): The adjusted net income (net profit + owner benefit (EBITDA) + value drivers) of a business is subject to an industry standard multiple to arrive at a selling price. This price includes the assets and inventory needed to run the business. Determine which method is best for your business: Asset values do not work for all businesses. You may have some underperforming assets that don’t bring much value to the business and you may have an asset (like a license) that brings a lot of value to the business. So you will need to take all the assets into consideration and arrive at a fair value. Discounted inventory is simply discounting the amount you paid for inventory to see it quickly. If the business is clos
