Draw Up Contingency Financing Plans
– February 28, 2011

100 WaysWhat happens if your bank is not willing to lend you money or renew your line of credit? This happens in today’s economy. Get your managers and your CPA involved in this brainstorming session and develop a “worst case scenario” for your company. What if sales dry up, production costs increase, collections fall off, the balloon payment comes due, and the bank won’t lend you a dime?

Before all these terrible things happen, you need to develop a contingency plan for securing the funds or altering your structure that will be necessary to save your business.

 

This is Profit Enhancement Idea #36 in Heard, McElroy & Vestal's 100 Ways: The Profit Enhancement Process series. The purpose of the series is to assist business owners and managers in cutting costs and increasing revenues by working smarter, not harder.
