THINK ABOUT PARTNERING UP
New business gobble up cash, so looked every opportunity to save a buck here and make a buck there.
Labor will be likely your biggest cost, hire top notch talent by giving base salaries low and should be awarded in the form of incentives, commission bonuses.
No unneeded expenses need to be made.

Funding your company with personnel assets is ideal for maintaining control but it can stall growth- and jeopardize your financial future- if your pockets are not deep. Still, anteing up a nice chunk of change boosts your credibility with prospective lenders and investors.
You can also self-fund operations with some creativity. Say you cover your start-up costs and your businesses is product-based--- you might bridge the gap between that first sale and fully funding operations.
By tapping into your cash flow. How? Do the legwork to find a vendors who has a great product line and inadequate distributions system. Suggest a consignment arrangement, payment via promissory note or generous terms.
BOOTSTRAPPING
Tapping loved once for funding is as common as it is dicey. If it turns out well, life is good. If it doesn’t life long relationships can turns sour. Treat this loans like the serious businesses agreements they are. Present your case as if your relative were bankers:, quote a competitive interest rate and payback terms, explain the risks. But for havens shake, don’t let zeal over write common sense.
FAMILY AND FRIENDS
BANKS Its all about collateral. Don’t expect a bank to hand you
a cheque until enough assets are pledged to cover the full amount of the loan and then some. We had family guarantees, second positions on our homes and secures business assets like equipment and inventory.
Banks loan takes time as they inquired like a CBI. You can not expect up to what extend they can inquire.
Define your business plan in a very master manner and tell them about the scope and your competency.
Agencies involved in lending like financiers.
Community based organisations.
High profile people, big famers etc.
Present your idea and share your business, they may be agree or fixed the interest.

INSURANCE
Why does the organization exist? 2. Where is it going? 3. How does it need to act to get there?
The answers must be precisely expressed—in a mission statement, vision statement, and statement of operating values—and held with conviction throughout the culture. “Conviction” is the operative word. If a company’s mission, vision, and values aren’t genuinely believed and championed by you and your management team, they’re just words on paper. Ah, but when conviction is convincing, the organization rises above the sum of its parts and produces an inspired team. The change is palpable. It’s also contagious. Writing your mission statement, vision statement, and statement of operating values amounts to nothing short of pouring the foundation of your business.
POURING THE FOUNDATION
Chapter-G
Laying In Your Mission, Vision, and Values
think of your vision statement as a list of dreams committed to paper. It’s a collection of shooting star that inspire people to reach for the heaven. Not only did I share our vision with new hires, I reinforced it every quarter at regular team meeting. I never missed an opportunity to plug it. Our people worked harder when they were excited about we were headed. More important, they’d give blood when they understood how our arrival would affect them personally. I saw the fire in their eyes when I’d single one of them out and say, “Joe, how old are you going to be in ten years? Forty, huh? Well, if we grow 15 percent every year for ten years and turn our vision into reality, how will our performance incentives affect your salary? What kind of opportunities do you see for yourself in a $1.7 billion company? With your help, and the help of everyone in this room we can make it happen.”
VISION CHECK
Chapter-H
“The link between Character and higher profits”
CHAMPION CORE VALUES Chapter-I
If a scientist extracted your company’s DNA and placed it under a microscope, the image she would see is your operating values. It’s the cultural backbone of your organization, a list of valued traits and deeds expected from all employees. Your vision statement shows employees where you want to go; your operating values spell out what they need to do to get there. These core values should run so deep through your culture that the hurricane winds of markets, disruptive technologies, and economic conditions can’t uproot them. If you can imagine any circumstances that would force one of these values off the list, then it’s not a core value and should never have been identified as one. Like your mission statement, these values must be championed and modeled by management. Otherwise, employees will shrug off a “Values We Value” campaign as just another sleepwalking initiative.
“The strategic plan is the sun in your solar system. It illuminates the purpose of every proposal, every process, every project. Everything revolves around it. Everything radiates from it. It flows from team objectives into operating plans into individual goals into action plans and, finally, into bottom-line results”

FOLLOW UP
PRESENT ACTION PLANS
GET CLARITY ON EVERY ISSUE YOU’RE FACING. IN JULY (OR SIX MONTHS PRIOR TO THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR), SCHEDULE A SERIES OF TWO-HOUR BRAINSTORMING SESSIONS WITH REPS FROM EVERY GROUP OF STAKEHOLDERS, FROM DEPARTMENT HEADS AND CUSTOMERS TO VENDORS AND THE RANK AND FILE. EACH GROUP HAS ITS OWN POINT OF VIEW. COLLECT PLENTY OF OBSERVATIONS—MACRO, MICRO, AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN— ABOUT INTERNAL STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES AND EXTERNAL OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS. KEEP IT SIMPLE ASK EVERYONE TO FILL OUT A SINGLE SHEET LISTING THE FOUR SWOT CATEGORIES. THEN MERGE THE RESULTS INTO ONE REPORT.
IDENTIFY SWOTs
Come September, gather the executive committee and other key people for a daylong priority- setting meeting. (The “executive committee” in smaller shops may simply be the owner and her three top people.) First, establish context by summarizing industry trends, competitor activity, last year’s performance, and this year’s financial forecasts. Next, vigorously debate which issues (gleaned from your SWOT list in step one) deserve priority in the coming year, and which make the list for the next two to four years.
SET PRIORITIES
“Each priority earns its own task force, composed of the company’s subject-matter experts. For the next two months, they research the priority and design an action plan that assigns responsibilities and accountabilities, sets deadlines, allocates resources, and establishes controls.”
TASK-FORCE IT, AND PLAN, PLAN, PLAN
Schedule a review meeting (a day or two) in early November that includes the same folks from the early- September gathering. Here, taskforce leaders present their action plans. Each pre sensation is like a Ph.D. dissertation—it must be defended. That means respectful disagreement is essential. It pushes the task force to thoroughly prepare benchmarking protocols, ROI (return on investment) projections, and other necessities. With the task-force plans presented, start green-lighting. Some plans will be good to go; others will need modifying based on available resources. (Plans requiring revision should be redistributed within two weeks.) Of course, each strategic objective is generally multi-departmental—hence the team approach. If the goal, for instance, is to open a dozen new stores, the exec in charge of real estate secures locations and oversees construction. Meanwhile, the CFO arranges financing; the retail operations people groom new store managers; marketing folks study the markets, develop a plan, and negotiate ad rates; IT analyzes and preps data systems.
PRESENT ACTION PLANS
■ Regular, one- to- three- hour executive- committee meetings throughout the year also keep the strategic plan on track.
Aim for weekly or monthly, depending on team experience and the pace of change (we met every two weeks). The agenda includes
■ mid-month review of the P&L, including department by-
department response
■ monthly review of key departmental metrics
■ brainstorming on inter- and intra-departmental
challenges

SEEK EMPLOYEES INPUT
At village level set up a committee of progressive farmers and ask them every three months about complaints they have about your product, working environment, field visit, farmers relationship management etc.
SETUP A COMMITTEE
They’re in the thick of the action, so every month ask each person, “What’s working and what isn’t?” Implore employees to report all errors as soon as they happen. Welcome mistakes with open arms. Finding and fixing errors prevents major headaches down the road.
SEEK CONSUMER INPUT
Employees are integral part of your organisation, they are not workers but good well wishers and advisors. Ask every month what kind of improvement required to match to the current market strategies.
SEEK EMPLOYEES INPUT
In small businesses—where people wear multiple hats, chase deadlines, and move fast and talk even faster—listening better be a core competency. Imagine what can be lost or misinterpreted in a simple exchange between two people of different genders, ages, and socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds.

SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND BEFORE SEEKING TO BE UNDERSTOOOD
The more you listen, the better informed you are when it’s your turn to talk.
Subtle messages flow through facial expressions, body language, and tone of voice That awareness came in handy during store visits when I queried customers about our service. I recall one typically over-polite Minnesotan who called the service “fine.” But her steady foot-tapping and the restless way she flipped through her magazine told a different story. I pressed her. “Are you sure?” I asked. “Anything I can help you with?” She paused, then confessed her car was twenty minutes overdue. Information in hand, we addressed the problem.
HEAR THE UNSPOKEN
Try not to ape the speaker, of course, but play back your interpretation of what you heard. Paraphrasing her message shows you listened carefully and gives you both a chance to clear up miscommunication. (Remember that one of our deepest desires is to be heard.) Skipping this step can set off a chain reaction of misunderstanding that culminates in dented feelings and awkward apologies.
REEPEAT WHAT YOU HEAR
I have nothing but contempt for you and your ideas. Stop wasting my time. If this sounds like you, you won’t be crowned Mr. Motivation anytime soon—people are certainly not going to share all their great ideas just to see them shot down. Conversely, a caring approach—a smile, leaning into the conversation, eye contact—lets employees know they’re taken seriously.
VALUE THE SPEKER AS WELL AS SPEECH
Stepping up a level of communication, the bully pulpit can
spread the word fast. Seize every opportunity to address your
troops. One well-crafted speech saves time and magnifies
impact. For that matter, don’t pass up outside
engagements—speaking to community groups extends your
company’s goodwill (and brand). How to perform like a pro?

Novices can jabber at warp speed, making it hard for

Facts and figures get their attention. But a good story gets

cod liver oil into a milkshake—it goes down easily and gets
