Subcontracting: Why Enter These Relationships?
First, you need to figure out what your in-house techs can handle on their own and then you’re going to need to figure out how to supplement it. As a small consulting firm, you can’t hire someone who’s got five different certifications and pay them their outlandish salaries of $65,000 or $75,000 a year. Instead, start subcontracting work.Even if you feel that you can afford their rates and keep them busy, that person is not going to want to be unjamming laser printers, hooking up PDAs to desktops and reinstalli

If you ‘piggy bank’ the business and take a high salary then the business probably reports very little as net profit at year end. You will probably pay less business tax to be sure, but you’ll also be showing that the business is not profitable… at least on paper

Preventative Medicine for Buyer's Remorse
Recently I spent more money than I intended to on a new computer. The sale went beautifully. The salesperson made me feel comfortable, the salesperson created trust, and I quickly realized that my salesperson indeed had the answers I needed to pick the right computer. The one I chose was perfect; it would be delivered to my house early the following week.Shortly after the sale was all said and done, a strange feeling of loss crept up on me. The feeling grew in strength as I stared at the only tangible remnants

No, I’m not talking about gambling or dairy cows – although business is often referred to as a gamble, I’m referring to your exit strategy. That time when you decide to ‘play no more’ and go off and practise your golf swing. Yup, I’m talking about selling your business…

So you own the show, good for you. You may even have a sign on your desk that says “The Buck Stops Here…But Not For Long” or some other humorous sign. The reality is though that selling your business is deadly serious – here’s why.

--- Split Personalities

You are not just one person. You are two. You are the owner of a business, if the business has shares I imagine you own them. And you are also an employee of the business (probably the GM or CEO). This means you work there too.

So what? Well those two roles, those two people have different objectives. Permit me to explain. The owner is looking for value and wealth, an increasing asset, maybe dividend payouts and other shareholder perks.

The CEO/GM wants a high salary, wants the increased income and they want it now. After all, what the heck has all this hard work been for? Again, what’s the big deal you ask? Well if you are a financial whiz then you’ll know already, but for most of us its all about the posted business net profits.

Understanding Refrigerants
What are refrigerants? Refrigerants are fluids that absorbs heat at low temperatures and rejects heat at higher temperatures. The principles of refrigerant allow for heat pumps and straight air conditioners to function properly; because of their pressure temperature relationship. This relationship allows for heat transfer.In the HVAC industry refrigerants are given a trade name known as "R" names. Examples of these names are R22, R134a, and R502. These names help to describe the different types of refrigerants.

Don't Repeat this Mistake of Big Business - You Can't Afford to
Is it just me that feels frustration when dealing with large businesses who use call centres for customer service?These bored-sounding people suffer from a syndrome I call "notsorryitis". That is, there can be mountains of evidence that their company has made a mistake and yet no-one is capable of saying sorry personally or even in a more general way.Denial is the usual response. "The computer system" seems to bear most of the blame, although I've not heard a computer apologise for billing my account wro

--- A Low Company Net Profit Is Not So Bad – Is It?

Yes and no is the answer. We all know that the financial picture you present can be made to look many different ways (and I’m not talking about cooking the books here) just how you choose to allocate certain costs and expenditures. As the CEO/GM you would likely have worked closely with your accountant to develop a suitable tax reduction strategy.

Often times this works against you when it comes time to sell because of the way that businesses are often valued. There are no hard and fast rules but there are a few obvious guidelines used by many for evaluating a business for sale and purchase.

The book value: All the liabilities are subtracted from all the assets and the resulting figure is the equity or book value. (A – L = E) Boring, but it gives you an idea.

Fire Sale: The value of the business is calculated at liquidation prices. Think pennies on the dollar. EEK!

The Net Earnings equation: This formula like all of them is fairly generic, however it does give you a great way to think about things. First of all, it uses the business net profit or earnings, to calculate the figure (Now do you see why piggy banking your bus

Lots of businesses are turning to live phone answering services to answer calls when no one is in the office. The popularity is felt to be due to the fact that people are more likely to stay on the line and leave a message if they are dealing with a real person on the other end. And, it's not costing company's a whole lit of money because these answering services are being outsourced to countries like India where lower wages are paid, so companies save a good deal of money.

If you are in a position to delegate and you don't, you are cheating yourself and the people with whom you work.
