Seven Small Business Problems - And Solutions
In the current economic climate, small businesses ($2 million to $10 million in sales) face a number of problems not otherwise encountered. A bank president in California, lists these primary problems:
1. Overconcern with sales rather than the bottom line.
2. Inventory control (or lack of it).
3. Undercapitalization (growth running ahead of profit, far outstripping capital needed to finance growth).
4. Accounting controls.
5. Reluctance to order financial check-ups.
6. New competition.
7. Foreign imports.
Some indicators of potential problems are overdrafts, bounced checks, inventory back-up, and a drop in receivables. Hobday's solution to all this is simple-Get Help! Stop fighting the lack of financial expertise. Stop fighting fiscal problems yourself, and get professional counseling immediately. The ideal solution, of course, is to begin annual checkups at your bank or lending institution before the problems begin. Commercial Insurance Service Inc. Newsletter, Charleston, W. Va.
