 | Business Survival Strategies Every small business 
        owner wants to be a success. Most are looking for answers. Some don't 
        even know the questions to ask! You rarely find companies accidentally 
        doing it right.  If you are doing 
        everything right, pat yourself on the back, and decide what to do with 
        your profits. If not, let's take a look at what you can do now to improve 
        the financial health of your business.    Would you believe ... 
         
          A business $3.5 
            million in debt with negative net worth, and $1 million in sales could 
            be completely restructured, and convert over $3 million in debt to 
            equity?  
           A small company could 
            cut more than $18,000 a month off overhead with no negative effect 
            on level of service or quality?  
          A healthy business, unable 
            to get bank expansion financing, could, in today's economy, attract 
            investors and obtain a bank loan package totaling more than $800,000, 
            just by rewriting its business plan, and repackaging its documentation? 
            Have you identified any of these trouble signs? 
        .... Evenone of these symptoms means your financial health is at risk.
        You raided your 
          child's piggy bank to make payroll.  
        Your accounts 
          payable or your accounts receivable are more than 30 days overdue.  
        Your receivable 
          represent more than 100% of your monthly income.  
        Your banker won't 
          renew your loan, and is asking for more equity.  
        Cash flow is just 
          an abstract concept. (10% of businesses have NO cash flow.)  
        Is your company... 
        In a negative 
          cash flow and/or negative net worth position (on the edge of bankruptcy)? 
           
        Not growing, but 
          you're unable to determine why?  
        For sale, but 
          the business is not healthy enough to attract potential buyers?  
        Unable to obtain 
          financing because financial documentation is not properly developed 
          or packaged?  
        Are you concerned about... 
        How much your business 
          is worth? ( Business Valuation  
          )  
        How much it will 
          be worth? (Projections)  
        Cost analysis 
          and cost cutting strategies? Is your business run as efficiently as 
          it could be?  
        Are you in touch 
          with the financial status of your business?(Financial management evaluation).
What the bank and 
          investors really want? (Financial 
          packaging  , the documentation to obtain financing.)
