Not as much competition for startup small businesses
Right now the economy seems to be a bit stagnant, and some are pointing to a lack of small business startups as the root of the problem.
Finding a friendly place for your business to call home
One of the biggest steps in a new business’ financial plan should be figuring out where to set up shop. It may not be as simple though as looking for a vacant storefront; you might want to consider first the different speed bumps state and federal governments could throw in your way.
Getting money where your business’ mouth is
Over the last few years the economy hasn’t been quite what it used to be. Consumer Reports said recently that spending was down even though people were feeling more optimistic about how the market was doing.
Using a credit card for your small business
More small businesses are considering using credit cards as part of their daily operations. With rates on the rise and lending ceilings shrinking at banks, businesses should know a few things about business banking before jumping on for the plastic.
Smart business through technology growth
As a small business, your cash flow is strong and consistent and you’re starting to think about where you might want to put money back into your company to help it grow. If you’re still running on old technology you might want to consider an update; you might actually be hurting your productivity.
Keeping your head in the investing game
The Investing Sentiment Survey (ISS) released recently shows most investors are feeling overwhelmed and confused by the variety and complexity of products, so if you’re looking for good financial advisement, don’t be afraid to look for help.
