If you employ
any staff - go on a leadership course.
What is your
break even figure? Do your current sales cover this? If not what are you
going to do? Reduce costs immediately! Put in a short term plan of action.
Tell the bank what action you are taking.
When dealing
with the bank tell them the good news, tell them the bad news but NEVER
surprise them.
Some businesses
don't like Banks because Banks will want their money back.
Partnerships
don't usually work. Set it up as a Limited Company or if you must have
a partnership at least get a legal partnership agreement.
91% of businesses
pay an outstanding invoice on receipt of a lawyers letter.
Avoid going
to court. Only the lawyer wins. Better to attend a negotiating course
and then see your adversary face to face.
Develop a niche
market - become a well known expert at something and charge top price
in your mini monopoly.
