Think About A Co-Signer

The better your credit score, the better your rates. So if you don’t have great credit, look for someone who does. By having them co-sign for your loan, you can find yourself qualifying for much better rates. Lenders look at your co-signers record, but you pay for the loan.

If you are a couple, you may also choose to use the person with the best credit score to apply for the refinance auto loan. You can find out who has the better record by requesting your credit score online.

Update Your Credit Report

While you can’t change your credit report overnight, you can be sure it is in the best condition possible. Take a few minutes to review your free copy and make sure all information has been updated. You may also want to include an open letter explaining any reasons for your bad credit score. Mitigating factors, such as a job loss or illness, are sometimes considered by lenders.

Eliminate Old Debt, Hold Onto Cash Assets

Besides your payment history, lenders also look at your debt and cash assets when considering your loan application. The less debt you have, the better you look to lenders – especially if you have a high income.

Cash assets are also important. Lenders like to see at least six months of cash reserves in the bank. This can mean a savings account, money market, or CD.

Be Honest With Your Information

More than likely, you will be approved for refinancing. What rates you qualify for depends on your information. So to get the most accurate loan estimate, be honest about your credit background. That way, when you actually apply for the loan, you will be approved for the rate quoted.

Remember too that not all lenders charge the same rate. A careful search will bring up favorable rates, even for those with poor credit. Sub-prime lenders often provide loans on a point or two.

First, if you’re only reading this article because you want to find a good format for writing a business plan, then you will find some good formats, templates and software at Intuit’s website – you know, the same people who make QuickBooks, Quicken and TurboTax. Well, if you go to the Intuit website, then you will find its new business plan service under the name of “JumpUp.” And even better, some of the templates and software are free. But, I have a feeling you might have a few more questions about business plans, so here are a few more pointers.

Second, something is more important, however, than just the writing a of business plan. The most important thing is that you decide WHERE you want your business to go and HOW you want to get there. Your decision about the where and how of your business goal is more important than the writing of it.

Third, the next most important thing is your specific use of the plan itself. If your business plan’s purpose is to serve as a guiding light to you and your key people, then it will be in that type of format. If its purpose is to create measurable goals, help evaluate progress towards those goals, and guide decision-making, then the plan might take a different shape. And, if your business plan’s purpose is to attract investors or to obtain a loan, then it might be in a different format altogether.

Fourth, and a special note for start-ups, if the business plan is for a start-up business and is for the last 2 purposes (measurable-goals/decision-making or investors/lenders), then I recommend a specialized process. First, write a business plan as if you were writing it to be your guiding light. I have worked with many clients with a new business who should not be writing an investor/loan business plan just when they are starting up the company. Why? Because a business plan should not be a something that you create just so that it sounds good to other people (or yourself). The plan should really be an actual reflection of the desired destination and the means anticipated to get there. So, for the new business owner, these insights and realizations need some time to evolve. Sure, a new business owner starts out with goals, dreams and ambitions. But, it takes time for these goals, dreams and ambitions to mature in the marketplace. That is why it is important early on to write the business plan, but do it with the “guiding light” purpose.

When DO you take the next step and write the business plan with the potential investor or lender in mind?

When the heart and mind agree on the destination and the means of getting there. Then, and only then, is it the right time to transform the “guiding light” plan to a business plan for measurable-goals/decision-making or investors/lenders.

Fifth, once the mind and heart agree, then it is essential to commit the business plan to paper because without a clear destination, there is no basis upon which to make decisions. Decisions should be made with the destination in mind. Writing down how to reach the destination establishes mile-markers that will measure progress. Without some way to measure progress, we are only left with our feelings – and feelings change from day to day or moment to moment. Milestones help us to make needed adjustments while the vision of our destinations keeps us on track.

To sum up, a business plan is important. The pre-work, however, is even more important. The follow-up, which measures our success against the plan, is what gives the plan its purpose.

spiring entrepreneur, building a successful business plan can seem daunting. Many small businesses ask themselves: Do we really need a plan? Well, if you have a business or want to start a business, you NEED a business plan! “Winging it” never worked for any successful business. Even well-established businesses need a business plan, or need to drastically modify their business plan when the situation changes.

The first step to building your business plan is determining your goals and objectives for your business. Imagine where you want to be in a few years. Do you want to remain a small business, or are you more adventurous? Also, consider your personal goals and objectives. How much work are you willing to put into your business? Is this a business that will provide a livable income, or more of a hobby? What tasks and jobs are you willing to delegate to your employees?

Second, determine what you bring to the customer. What distinguishes your business from your competitor? You must come up with the key attributes of your business that will draw customers to you again and again. Without proper brand development and recognition, your customers will glaze over your website and you won’t have appropriate levels of business to sustain.

Third, consider your budget. How much money will you need to start up your business? Are you going to take out a business loan, or find investors? Do you want to allow investors in on your important business decisions? Also, consider what happens as your business changes and grows. How are you going to spend income? Are you going to re-invest in your business? Finally, how much income do you need to support your personal lifestyle?

When you have these essential elements, you can consider your business strategy. Basically, this is a plan of how you’re going to market, design, and operate your business. In any business plan, you will usually open with an Executive Summary and Business Description. After that, you get to the “meat” of your plan.

The third section of your business plan is your Marketing section. Consider your target audience and how large your customer base may become. Then, consider how you will reach your market (how feasible it is to actually contact your customer base). Will you use website only? Or perhaps television and paper mediums? This will help define your pricing, distribution, promotion and marketing methods. Once you have this section completed, you can see how you measure up with your competitors. You should aim to outperform and outlast your competitors, and draw their customers to your base.

The next two sections are the overall design and operations plan of your business. How will you design your business’ brand? What are your most visible attributes? Also, how many employees do you want, and how will your business flow? Will you delegate tasks or handle most of it yourself? A lot of this section is highly personal and gives you a chance to show your passion about your product or service.

Finally, you must come back to your finances and determine what is feasible for your business. Also, try to examine what your future financial goals will be as the market changes and your business grows.

With a business plan, you can ensure your business has a solid foundation in reality and what you can feasibly expect from your venture. This is essential to business success and will maximize your profits!

How will you gain new clients and increase revenue?

Finding new customers is an ongoing process in any business. In order to be successful every business needs a plan for brining in new clients. Without new clients – most of us won’t be in business for long. You may have customers today but you need to plan for tomorrow.

Keeping the pipeline full of hot leads, warm leads and cold calls is essential.  I find that most businesses, no matter what they’re selling, can benefit from putting processes in place to develop new business. Business development should be part of everything we do. When you’re networking you’re building potential new clients, when you’re engaging in social media you’re making new relationships and when you’re involved in your communities you’re representing your businesses. Everything you do can be business development – yet that’s not enough – you must have a business development plan.

During a recession many businesses feel the pinch because they had stopped strategically developing new business when times were good. When times are good – there are more customers and they are spending more. When things get tight, money is scarce and people are more cautious. If you don’t make business development a priority activity in your business, a down economy could put you out of business.

Now is the time to make a renewed commitment to developing new business. Add prospecting processes to your business plan, hire outside help or just pick up the phone and start calling. Prospecting can be scary. Most business owners say they are terrified of making cold calls. It is hard, it can be scary and discouraging but it brings results. By practicing telling others what you do and the value you can offer them, you get better at marketing. You get more comfortable selling your business and in turn customers are more attracted to your business.

Confidence attracts new clients. If you show up in all your prospecting activities with confidence, you have already won half the battle.

There are many ways to develop new business. All the activities in this workbook are designed to develop new business. When you combine all your marketing strategies with an effective prospecting process – you’re setting yourself up for success.

Make a plan for how you will handle all leads and how you will cold call or prospect.

Hot leads are the leads that call you. They are HOT because they are ready to buy, have the resources to buy and may have been referred by another client. Hot leads MUST be followed up on immediately. Think about how you will handle this. Think about who will be responsible for returning these calls or making the sales presentation to HOT leads. These leads need to be followed up with within 24 hours. A hot lead will not remain hot is there needs are not met – they want your attention and they want it now.

In addition to following up with hot leads, think through how you will handle them if they say they need to think about it or are looking at a competitor as well. Make a plan for how you will follow up and when.

I call all hot leads to check in once a week. I want to stay in front of them and let them know I’m still here and would love to do business with them. In addition, after the initial phone call I send them my full marketing kit. They can get it on my website but I like to send a hard copy out with a handwritten note thanking them for their time and interest.

Warm leads are people who are considering buying. They may call you or someone you know may ask you to call this lead. Warm leads need more attention. They need to know what you do, what’s in it for them and why they should pick you. It is a good idea to try to meet with warm leads face-to-face if possible. You want to make sure you ask warm leads lots of questions. You need to understand what they are looking for and determine if you are a good fit. If your business can meet their needs, you must show them how. Keep your conversations about their issue and the solution you offer.

After an initial contact with a warm lead, I again send a marketing packet with a handwritten note. I then call warms leads every other week for a month or so. After that I call to check in once every other month. The time between calls depends on the type of business you are in and the product you are selling. I don’t want to be a pest to these potential clients but I want to stay in front of them. I have had some warm leads hang around for a year or so before they bought. Stay close to your warm leads – you never know when they’ll get HOT!

Cold leads are people who don’t know you exist. They won’t come to you – you must go to them. They don’t know you and they may not even need or want what you offer. Cold contacts are made with potential clients to find out if there is a fit between this person and your product. It’s a discovery process.

When making cold contacts, you must tell them up front what’s in it for them. If they give you time, you need to be prepared to share the value you offer and why you are different from your competitors. In addition you want to ask them questions and add them to your contact list.

Building a prospect list is essential to any marketing campaign. If you’re going to use cold calling, you need a list. This is why having a clear target market is critical. If you know who you’re targeting there are many ways to build a prospecting list. You can buy lists from a marketing firm or you can build lists from scratch if you have the time to do your own research. I have used both techniques successfully.

In our construction company we bought lists of our target market. We used these lists to begin our cold calling campaign with a welcome letter. The letter welcomed them to the area and introduced our business. A few weeks later we followed up with a call to the homeowner to introduce ourselves. During this call we often learned whether they had any remodeling plans in the near future. If they did they got put onto our call list and we stayed in touch with them through calls, newsletters and special mailings. If they didn’t have any immediate plans, we kept them in our database and sent them all special mailings.

In my speaking and consulting business I’ve built my own lists. I used the internet to find organizations in my target market. Once I identify an organization, I send them an introductory email. I then follow up a few weeks later with a phone call. If they have any interest in my services now or in the future, I add them to my database and stay in front of them on a monthly basis. If they’re not a good fit, they fall off the list. Remember you choose your clients just as they choose you. If I make a cold call and know there’s not a good fit – there’s no point in continuing to market to that person. 

It’s important to have a good CRM software tool to use when building your list. I use Act for this, though there are other ones out there. In addition, I use Constant Contact for my newsletter subscriptions. This is a secure way to email potential clients.

The key to building a successful business development strategy is to track everything. If you can’t track your success ratio with business building activities – you’ll never know what works and what doesn’t. Business development will be an ongoing process – it’s never complete. It’s work to stay consistently in front of potential clients and follow-up with all leads. Tracking activities will help you see where to focus your energies and keep you on track.

Lastly, business development should be fun. Growing a business is a journey. In order to remain passionate about what you do, you must stay connected and engaged. Making prospecting fun and then standing back to see the rewards will help you to build a solid, profitable business – one that will survive and thrive during any economy.
