Using Loans against equipment for your retail store.

Are you the owner of a retail business looking to find additional cash flow?

Many retail stores are looking to procure a loan against equipment to help with their cash flow and working capital needs for their business.

Many business owners  have had their sales drop in half during these last few years. We were a victim of this economy and our cash flow was very low. After two years of declining sales and increases in rent, it no longer made financial sense to keep the doors open. So if you don’t have financial reserves, this can happen to you. The economy is something we have no control over, so try to be prepared. Try to put something back for a rainy day.

Every business including retail stores have assets.  Assets such as Industrial equipment includes CNC Milling machines, Cranes, Assembly line equipment, industrial ovens, and more.  Machinery equipment includes Lathes, Drill presses, brake Computer equipment which can be used in this Loan Against Equipment niche financing includes Servers, desktops, laptops, routers, and software all can be considered when a business owner is considering using loans against equipment. 
  

Your retail business does make money when it uses its equipment and doesn't own it.   

You can use the current equipment you own to increase the cash flow in your business.

Overhead and cash flow are two most important factors that will determine whether you have a successful antique store. Ideally you will want to negotiate which will help how you begin your business.

Unfortunately 90% of small businesses fail during the first five years. Taking proper precautions along with watching and managing your cash flow can help you avoid this.

Most of the businesses fail because of improper planning.  Understanding you won't know every situation that will arise you can at least know by consulting with others who are in the business beforehand on what to do and what not to do. 

I've found if you contact another antique store owner that runs a similar business that is located in another part of the country, there is a good chance you can connect with a person who is willing to help you with info if you explain you would like to talk briefly with them.

Many people are more than happy to share their ideas of how they started and what they did that worked and what didn't work.  This information is priceless.

 The largest expense in overhead is rent but you have to aware of other expenses such as taxes and insurance, most don’t, find out what those expenses are. Besides insurance on the building, you need insurance on your inventory, in case of fire or a major theft.

Then there is electricity, gas, phone, internet, and advertising. Another major expense can be employees, even part time. Not only their salary, but the payroll taxes that have to be paid unless you hire them as self employed 1099 workers but you have to be careful because if you are audited by the IRS you could end up losing your business if you structure this improperly.

Once you know what these expenses are, then you can figure out how much you have to sell in order to make a profit.

Ideally you have to have enough revenue coming in each month to continue to replenish your inventory.  If you have a slow period then you may want to consider getting working capital from an alternative funding source.

Luckily there are alternative funding sources such as Small Business Loans Depot that offers bank statement loan programs and working capital loan programs that allow antique business owners to receive the working needed to add staff or purchase equipment to keep your cash flow going which will allow proper operation of your antique business.
