Perhaps we should insist on a city and guilds or NVQ in running a business?
No please Ray !!!! Your choking ain't you
I am joking, but to be honest I would provide basic cashflow management, credit risk assessment and business accounting training for free, IF I thought the right customers would go on it.
90% of our bad debt is caused by two things:
1) Naive plumbers trusting builders/service providers/similar larger organisations, and then getting either completely stitched, or having their cashflow so stretched that they go pop OR
2) Plumbers who go Self Employed, and never work out that the money they take at the end of the job is not all theirs, and they need to allow for paying merchants, tax man etc. Effectively, they are using the business account as an overdraft, and if they have a prolonged quiet period, or take a bad debt themselves, there is nothing left.
The trouble is, if I ran those courses, the people who would come are the thoughtful, sensible ones who would have worked it out anyway. Its just like the DIYers who come on this board - the ones who most need the advice are the ones who don't listen to it.
i think im gonna open my own parts shop and get direct lol
Looked into a few years ago, but you would need a very good supplier, to guarantee
next day that the big boys can do.
Mind you our two local parts indies have just shut down, so might be scope for one now
