<p> In the midst of the global economic crisis, many small businesses are on the brink of closing down if not enough capital infusion is found. It is now even more difficult to get small business loans from banks, though. Ironically, the exact reasons why small businesses need such small business loans – the fact that business has slowed down and profitability has plummeted – are the same reasons why banks turn them down for loans.</p>
<p>Sma<span id="more-385"></span>ll businesses now have to be more resourceful in finding alternatives to small business loans.</p>
<p>Government Grants and Contracts Instead of Small Business Loans</p>
<p>The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act signed by President Obama in February 2009 caused the pumping of billions of dollars for the revitalization of the economy. Because of it, there are plenty of government grants and contracts available to small businesses. These can be alternatives to small business loans.</p>
<p>But how can small businesses avail of the stimulus program?</p>
<p>The Association of Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (APTAC) has the responsibility for helping small businesses obtain and perform federal, state and local government contracts. It has Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (PTAC) throughout the country, ready to help small business owners to get registered and find opportunities in the area of government grants and contracts. Counselors assist small businesses in filling out bids, proposals and quotations.</p>
<p>The PTAC holds seminars teaching small business owners all the ins and outs of government legalese, including acronyms and registries. A one-day seminar with PTAC covers what small business owners may take months to learn on their own.</p>
<p>The PTAC then helps small businesses with Central Contractor Registration (CCR), a requirement for doing business with the federal government. This registration can be so complicated that some companies take two days to do it when the PTAC counselor can help them get through it in 15 minutes.</p>
<p>Local PTACs will be of help in acquiring state and municipal contracts.</p>
<p>Other resources that small business owners should consult include the Small Business Administration (SBA) which also coordinates with the APTAC; the General Services Administration (GSA) which acts as the government’s purchasing department and provides information on becoming an approved vendor; the Federal Business Opportunities website (fbo.gov) where federal contract opportunities currently available are posted; and the Small Business Innovation Research website (sbir.gov) where grant and funded research opportunities for small businesses are listed.</p>
<p>Cash Advances from Credit Card Services Instead of Small Business Loans</p>
<p>Another alternative to small business loans are cash advances from credit card services. This option is much easier than winning government grants and contracts.</p>
<p>Most small businesses are already availing of credit card services that enable them to accept payments by credit cards or debit cards. This is practically a requirement to doing business these days, with people hardly paying cash for goods and services. Many small business owners do not know that they could avail of cash advances from these credit card services, though, and that such advances can actually equal small business loans. </p>
<p>The amount that a small business can borrow is based on its average monthly income from credit card sales. This is so because the cash advance does not require collateral and future sales receivables from credit cards stand as the collateral. Payment will also be done through automatic deductions from those future credit card sales. There will be no set monthly amortizations. Instead, a certain percentage of the sales will be allotted as payment. The small business owner, therefore, need not worry over where to find cash for loan payments.</p>
<p>Cash advances from credit card services are the best bet of small business owners as alternatives to small business loans.</p>

<p>Getting out of business is a process. The length of time required to complete the process is directly related to the complexity of the business, and the circumstances underlying the decision to get out. Planning how you exit your business is just as important as how you started it.</p>
<p>The exit proce<span id="more-370"></span>ss, timing of events; and tasks associated need to be tailored to the type and complexity of the business. Each case is individual because reasons for dissolution differ, and problems that arise are unique to each circumstance. The following checklist contains key elements that should be evaluated as early in the exit process as possible to eliminate pitfalls later on.</p>
<p>The process for exiting a business should include evaluation of the following points:</p>
<p>1. Engage Professionals &#038; Consultants as Team Members.</p>
<p>2. Prepare a List of Assets &#038; Perform a Physical Inventory.</p>
<p>3. Perform a Valuation of the Business.</p>
<p>4. Prepare Detailed Plan &#038; Assign Responsibilities.</p>
<p>5. Release Announcements &#038; Notices.</p>
<p>6. Conclude or Transfer Contract Obligations.</p>
<p>7. Dispose of &#038; Transfer Assets.</p>
<p>8. Settle Accounts Payable &#038; Debt Obligations.</p>
<p>9. Prepare Final Financial Statements &#038; Tax Returns</p>
<p>10. File Articles of Dissolution.</p>
<p>11. Prepare &#038; Issue Special Filings, Notices, Informational Returns, &#038; Taxes.</p>
<p>12. Receive Tax Clearance Notice.</p>
<p>13. Close Bank Account.</p>
<p>14. Store Business Records</p>
<p>The process for successfully exiting a business requires the same amount if not even more planning as starting the business. While the process may be easier, it is likely to be less enjoyable and more stressful. The best advice for business owners is to incorporate potential exit strategies in the early stages of setting up their business. Vigilance and diligent managerial oversight is needed to ensure that complications and problems which could affect dissolution, and net value, do not develop into roadblocks. When the time comes to divest or sell the business, be sure to engage the relevant expertise needed, and prepare an action plan.</p>
<p>We Buy Your Business enables clients an opportunity to sell businesses and business assets fast for cash. If your exit strategy requires a quick divesture option Contact WBYB for cash offer NOW.
