Is Vendor Finance a Good Way to Start a New Business?
Posted by Spconsultancy on April 17th Cheap Joe Flacco Jersey , 2013
If you're in business, you know that financing is hard to obtain. Since the financial downturn that had its origins in late 2007, many entrepreneurs have seen their lines of credit reduced or altogether eliminated. If you're serious about financing a business today, you may need to look for alternative funding sources.
While you probably have applied for and received a few credit cards, those cash advances can be burned quickly. If you have obtained financing from relatives Cheap John Elway Jersey , this was probably a one-shot deal, and you may not be able to go back for more.
Home equity loans used to be a good place to mine some cash, but you may have tapped out those lines. After you've raided your superannuation, you'll need to get really creative.
Vendor Financing
Vendors can aid in financing a business in two ways. First, they can actually lend you cash. If you have a very successful store and if your purchases are large enough Cheap Dre'Mont Jones Jersey , your primary vendor may actually assist you with cash if you agree to continue making large purchases from them. Although this scenario does occur, it is unfortunately rare.
The other way vendors can help the process of financing a business is to give you generous credit terms. If you buy $30,000 worth of product and you don't have to pay for it for 45 days, your vendor has just given you a 45 day interest free loan. When the 45 day period is up, pay off the invoice Cheap Drew Lock Jersey , buy more product, and you have basically renewed your loan. As long as you continue to do business, you can float that $30,000 indefinitely.
Three Way Cash Flow Forecast
In order to entice your vendors into financing a business, you will need to have a business plan. Even if you have a healthy unit Cheap Dalton Risner Jersey , you'll need to show that your second venture will also show a profit. You also must have a document that includes a three-way cash flow forecast. This portrays your profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow, and predicts how those items will look in the future.
Any good accounting firm can prepare this for you, but many accountants can take a long time to prepare the statements, and this may cause you to miss out on good financing opportunities. The process can also be expensive Cheap Noah Fant Jersey , and the cost may be prohibitive for a small or new business.

When I talk to MBA students about sales as a career, a distasteful look fleets across their faces. For may getting into sales after doing an MBA from a top MBA college is unthinkable. I sympathize. The image of a sales person conning you into buying something you do not need comes to mind. I did hardcore sales for 2 years and then decided never to do it again. Lo and behold, for the last 10 odd years I have been spending an increasing proportion of my time selling. As I grow more senior in an organization, I am selling my organization鈥檚 products to customers, the organization鈥檚 prospects to shareholders and the organization鈥檚 values to current and prospective employees.
The reason selling seems distasteful is probably because I am dependent on the 鈥榖uyer鈥?to make a decision and therefore I am in his power. Maybe this hurts my ego. Another reason could be that there is no set formula for success and we need to make a new effort and come up with a new tactic for each sale. This means we need to understand and adapt to each situation as it comes. There is no predictability and so a perceived loss of control.
Is convincing people not selling? Am I not spending my day in and outside office convincing and being convinced? How can I escape selling?
So let us get real. We sell all our life and sales is unpredictable. There is statistically a 50 percent chance of success or failure. If our success rate more that 50% Broncos Jerseys For Sale , we are ahead of the curve.
Although there is no formula, I have adapted the old Xerox methodology for selling. This was called the SPANCO method.
1. Suspect 鈥?list of all potential customers that I need to convince
2. Prospect 鈥?a short list of qualified suspects
3. Approach 鈥?what tactics do i adopt for each customer
4. Negotiate 鈥?Come to terms, monetary and otherwise
5. Close 鈥?get a letter of intent or be the only one in the running
6. Order 鈥?get the money or a contract
In order to sell anything, including myself for a job, I can follow this method.
1. S: I make a list of all potential companies that I can apply to.
2. P: I create a set of criteria to short list the targets. This can be based on location Cheap Denver Broncos Jerseys , salary, other perks, culture, learning potential, availability of jobs Cheap Broncos Jerseys , seniors鈥?feedback, competition with other job seekers, company financials, company potential etc. I give weight to each of these criteria in order of importance. I then d.
