A Balanced Business

Small Business Week starts in early September and I have been asked to speak to a group of business owners at breakfast. Luckily, mornings are my best time so the 7:00am start is okay.

At this meeting I am going to explore what it takes to run a balanced business. What do I mean by that?

The simplest way to think about it is to picture a diamond like above. In each corner we have Customers, Finance, Employees and Operations. Now imagine that the line joining the corners is elastic. If you spend a lot of your time concentrating on the financials of your business you could see that the "elastic" is stretched further in that direction. That puts pressure on the other parts of your business.

Practically speaking, you could have the best Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet by cutting back on staff levels, training for staff, capital expenditure on business systems and process design. But, is it possible that maybe your customers could suffer with Service and your staff may look for other opportunities and in the long run you are less efficient because your processes and systems let you down?

Conversely, you could focus a lot of energy on staff. They could be the best rewarded people and be really well trained. But, they may not be customer focused and may be less effective because your systems and processes dont allow them to succeed.

I think you get the idea. Obviously we have limited time and money and as such focus on a particular aspect of the business moves things along. But, long term focus should be in a balanced way.

Facebook Fan Pages - another way to advertise

There is a lot written about Twitter and I have to admit I still cannot really see how it brings real results. Another new media medium is Facebook Fan Pages. This is more akin to the classic web page but is on a "directory" that has a huge audience. To understand more have a look at the information on the Facebook website.

To get started follow the instructions to setup the page. Then you have a number of options to advertise your business. Firstly you become a fan of the Fan Page. This advertises the page to your connections on Facebook.

Another method is to purchase advertising on Facebook itself. These are the ads you see on the right hand side of a Facebook page. The targeting here is very good. You have the ability to specifiy age, sex, location as well as many other snippets of information. This information is gathered at time of registration by Facebook users.

Tax time 2009!

Here is a list of what is around the web for our favourite time of the year:

Advanced Guide to capital gains tax concessions for small business 2008-09
This guide explains the capital gains tax (CGT) concessions available for small business

Changes to super for individuals
Provides an overview of changes made to super co-contributions, concessional contributions caps and income tests as a result of the 2009 Federal Budget

Individual PAYG payment summary schedule 2008-09
Information on the PAYG schedules for filling in tax returns

Reporting requirements - changes for the 2009/10 income year
These changes are for the reporting of payments made in the 2009-10 income year. They include:

• the reporting of reportable employer superannuation contributions
• the inclusion of the pension or annuity indicator box
• the inclusion of the lump sum payment A ‘type’ box
• the reporting of exempt foreign employment income
• the removal of the ‘other income’ label.

What is new in e-tax 2009?
Changes to pre-filling in 2009 include:

• an enhanced Alerts service. This year, in addition to notifying you when additional information is available, if you register to receive your alert by email, you will also be advised of the type of data
• private health insurance rebate details
• rental property address details from 2007-08 rental property schedules
• pay as you go (PAYG) income tax instalment amounts
• reminders of letters that we have sent to you throughout the year in relation to:
• your work related expenses, and
• the need to lodge a schedule of work related expenses (SWE).
• family tax benefit (FTB) claim status information has been removed because FTB claims are no longer administrated by the Tax Office.

SaaS - invoicing and Financial Systems

Here is a list of some of the Software as a Service Financial Systems available on the web today. Like all applications, these have their strengths, focus and weaknesses. Also, there are quite a view Invoicing systems available today. The main issue is how do you get that data easily into your financial system. Some do all aspects, like Saasu:

Saasu - This is probably the closest you will get to an online system of the same calibre as MYOB and Quickbooks. It does all of the regular accounting modules you would expect. It allows private branding of your systems as well as invoices,statement and the like. Can be free if you do less than 15 transactions per month.

Invoiceplace - As the name suggest it does invoicing. The twist on this one is that there is an inventory management module. It is pretty limited in that aspect. Payments can be received by PayPal and other payment gateways are coming. The invoicing module allows resending of invoices and statements.

Winkbill - good customisation allowed for templates. Reminders, Invoices, Statements with a Dashboard to give you an overview. Payment gateways are a bit limited.

FreshBooks - the usual plus a Contractor module aimed at making it easier to work with contractors. They can do timesheets and these can be turned into expenses. If you have a lot of contractors, it is worth a look.

Cashboard - Invoicing, time tracking, projects and estimates are the focus for this site.

As you can see there are plenty of companies doing this today. The main features to look for are:

• GST and understanding of ATO rules
• different currencies (most sites are US based)
• ability to download transactions or an API into you main financial system

What would I choose? For my money Saasu covers the bases and has the best upto date modules for ATO compliance.

How to write a business plan

It is that time of the year again. We are all madly working to close the FY books, bring in outstanding creditors and pay debts in advance for next year. These things are all good and keep our financial team happy as well as help business health.

But what are you going to do next? We all know things are not going to stop, so operations is going to be top of mind. Apart from that, what about your Business Plan?

Hopefully your Business Plan is not sitting in a draw somewhere, is it? Even if it is get it out and dust it off. Look through the plan and have a look at what is relevant today. Most likely things have changed somewhat. Priorities, Goals and Objectives change over time. Maybe things have changed so much that a complete review of the Business Plan is needed.

Here is a quick and easy way to overcome the Business Plan problem. Even if you do not have a business plan doing this is a great start. Have a think about the next year for your business and write down the following headings:

• Business Focus/Scope

• Revenue/Income

• Costs/Expenses

• Resources

• Facilities

• Goals

Business Focus/Scope: This is the business activities you are going to focus on for the next year. It may be establishing a new line of products or another outlet. It may be focusing on an aspect of your business that you want to improve. Put down at least three bullet points but no more than five.

Revenue/Income: This is your expected Revenue for the year. You should also put this down as a monthly or quarterly guide. Also think about the “mix” of the revenue if you have multiple income streams.

Costs/Expenses: Same as you did with revenue. Highlight costs associated to Mix so you can check those.

Resources: Bullet point your staff numbers and functions. You may have 30 staff made up of 2 Shift Leaders, 3 Apprentices and 25 Tradesman. What other resources will you need? Salespeople, administration, bookkeeping. Bullet point these.

Facilities: list the facilities you will need for the year ahead

Goals: These should be your Goals for the year. Be careful to make sure they are SMART. They should be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time Driven

Now do yourself a favour and think of the year PAST this one. In other words, what would these headings and bullet points look like in another years time?

This Business Plan should fit on one page. So on doublesided printing you have this years and next years plan. If you laminate this and keep it in your work folder, diary and even post it on your wall, you have a handy reminder of what you are trying to do that year.

You might even refer back to your Business Plan or create a new one. If you need help in creating a plan please contact us at InFormGroup.

Please abolish Payroll Tax in NSW

I just read a good article in NETT magazine. It was written Peter Quinn of Quinn Consultants. Essentially he is saying that if payroll tax was abolished then a business could employ more people. A side benefit is that the Government would not have to fund unemployment for those folks.

If payroll Tax was abolished would you employ more staff?

Scammer on the Rampage

Have you been caught by this? I almost was, once. A company sent an invoice to me for around $200. But it was not an invoice, in very small print and grey letters it was spelled out that this was an offer to be put in some directory. The "invoice" referred to a publication I had advertised through recently.

Obviously, these guys get on the lists for publications etc and then send invoices as if they represent the advertising you have commissioned.

My instant reaction: " Oh bugger, I must have forgotten to pay that". But, I checked the records and sure enough I had. I then reread the "invoice".

I took the matter to Consumer Affairs and gave them copies of the invoice. they contacted the company who issued it and I have heard nothing since.

As the article says, with more pressure on SMEs at present, these scammers are very active.

Beware!

Business Loan Finder

Need a loan?

Maybe not the thing you want to think about in today's world. But business has to go on and for a lot of SMEs raising capital for projects or new business is an ongoing problem. The Victorian Government has put together a good website for finding information and suppliers of loans. You fill in some simple questions on the website and then get a comparison table back with the supllier, interest rates and the monthly payable amount. To see more have a look at the website.

How do you market to your customers?

I like marketing and especially the use of technology as a marketing tool. The other day I needed some ink for my HP 3 in 1 Fax/scanner/printer. Of course, I needed it then. For many months I have received a weekly email from a supplier Inkman. I had purchase a toner cartridge for my laser from them. The emails were not that annoying but I mostly deleted them without reading them. But when I needed the HP ink I looked up the website and checked their prices. I ordered some with next day delivery. I also raced down to Harvey Norman and bought some ink to get by that day.

In marketing there is a model called AIDA. Awareness, Interest, Desire and Action. Well, the weekly emails created awareness. They generated some interest but generally no desire and the only action was the deletion of the email. What was the secret ingredient missing?

Timing. the marketing material presented did not raise my desire so that I could order the ink BEFORE I needed it. So timing raised my desire level and so I was pushed into action.

Thinking about this more I can see a case for weekly emails from suppliers of necessary products and services. But how would that equate to suppliers of more complex solutions or services. What about Legal advertising in local papers? Does that work the same way?

Well I know that there are ads in the local paper each week. I dont remember the names of the organisations. Would that advertising lead me to using their services? Probably not. I would most likely talk to friends and relatives and get a referral to somebody they have used and trust.

If that is the case, why do legal businesses continue to advertise in the local papers? Sometimes it is because they feel they have to do something. Most likely it works for them. Some people may want legal services quickly. Some may not want to talk to friends and relatives about the problem to get a referral.

Overall it is the mix of advertising and communication that is important. For advertising and communicating any product or service, simple or complex, to any sized organisation there is a case for using all the channels available. Adapting the mix to the current environment and the messaging to invoke AIDA is whats important.

Using technology to assist this and reduce costs is where I find the fun. Reducing costs of direct mail. Use of email. Use of websites. How does Web 2.0 (Facebook, Linked In, Twitter) fit in? What about Web 3.0 (think of the web and Web 2.0 on your mobile) fit in?

Another way of approaching complex sales is outlined in Jill Konrath's book on "Selling to Big Companies". I am especially interested in how to use technology in sales like this.

Over the next few weeks we will explore these in more detail.

Checklist for Starting a small business

Legal structures, Tax, keeping records, employees, GST and where to I get help. These are all issues on the mind of anybody starting a small business. I have a family member looking at doing this, in fact I have three little entrepreneurs as well as myself. No wonder nobody goes to bed around here and the Electricity bill is so high.

The checklist available form the ATO is a great place to start.

Barter - reduce your costs - save cash

The Australian recently reported an old way of reducing your costs in business, Barter. This is and old and trusted method of getting services whilst you supply return services to the supplier. The article outlines a number of scenarios of what is happening locally and overseas. So here is a list of local companies and websites involved in barter:

• Bartercard
• Swapspace
• Cracker
• AtoZ Barter Online

Of course, the Government wants there share. The ATO takes it's cut wherever it can and Barter is no different.

Tax Breaks for Business

Good news for Small Business, but to understand this better you need to look at this.

As part of the $42 billion Nation Building and Jobs Plan, the Government has announced investment tax breaks for Australian businesses.

Small businesses with a turnover of $2 million a year or less will benefit from claiming an additional 30 per cent tax deduction for eligible assets costing $1 000 or more, acquired between 13 December 2008 to 30 June 2009. From 1 July 2009 to 31 December 2009, eligible assets costing $1 000 or more will be able to claim an additional 10 per cent deduction.

Businesses with higher than a $2 million a year turnover, are eligible for assets costing $10 000 or more.

For further information on the tax break, visit the Tax Office website.

Manufacturing - Researchers in Business

Previously research grants were onerous. The process of applying for the grant can be time consuming and costly. The complex reporting required is difficult as well. The new Researcher in Business initiative is an attempt to reduce the complexity for smaller grant situations and also stimulate involvement between Research organisations and Industry. The details are on the ATO website and also reproduced below.

InFormGroup can help you to look further into this scheme and assist in the application.

IT and the Recession

Arguably the best IT company to work for in the last couple of years has been NetApps. In announcing their results on February 12th a 6% reduction in labour force was sneaked in.

It goes to show the depth the Recession is taking now, especially in the IT sector. There was a time when IT was cool. But, sadly, it has become an mature industry that focuses on margin improvement, consolidation and efficiency. This is not bad as it translates to gains at the consumer end. Look at the desktop power available today ! Only a few years ago memory and disk sizes available today were too expensive. Now you can get Netbooks (see earlier Blogs) at sub $500 prices.

Technology that is cool is now based around mobility and "gadgets". This is where the money is and recommendations to new graduates would be have a look at companies like Apple, Nokia and RIM.

Unfortunately, as the larger end of IT town consolidates, the knowledge and experience of IT goes out the door. The Baby Boomers are leaving to Tree Changes, Sea Changes, Career changes or just the path of redundancy. I blogged previously about the cycles of IT and one thing is for sure, they dont seem to teach a subject called Computer History at University.

So what is the next big thing: Cloud Computing seems to be all the rage. Stay tuned for more on that...................

Computer History revisited - Virtualisation

I must be old enough to have seen the full circle in lots of technology. I remember when Operation Systems were proprietary and this thing called Unix came along. The OS became "proprietary" when this thing called Linux came along. In each case as we entered the new paradigm, the operating system was not that good compared to the proprietary ones and we have to wait these days for features to be added to the various Linux distributions that have been in "Unix" versions for ages.

So lets talk about Virtualisation. The saviour in Green Computing. IBM in the 1960s ran Virtual Machines in it's operating software with things such as TSO and CICS around the place and running on the same hardware.

Today we have VMWare for example. In essence, it allows a single computer to run a number of instances of the same or different operating systems. So you could have a computer running RedHat, Suse, Windows XP, Vista for example and be able to log into each of these "machines" and run applications that are best suited to that operating system.

Before this, if you needed a Windows machines and a Linux machine you had to have two different computers. This meant more electricity and cost.

Of course the computer being used to host the virtual machines must have sufficient CPU and Memory and disk space but surveys have shown that a lot of computers are not fully utilised. With VM you now up your utilisation of an expensive resource.

There are downsides. For example the physical ports on the computer, the USB or serial ports, sometimes have contention problems between the different virtual machines. This has been mostly worked out and is not really an issue anymore.

How to make a recession reality !

I just went down the shops to buy a book on Joomla. That is another story too geaky for here.

It was quiet, it was empty.

Maybe it is the post holidays time and kids are back at school. Maybe 4:00pm is a dead time anyway, I dont usually go shopping at that time.

Maybe..........people are not out spending money. But why would that be the case? They have tax cuts. There has been another interest rate cut yesterday. Maybe they are hanging onto cash and not spending because the big "R" may be just around the corner.

Not Recession, the other "R".....redundancy. This is really a conundrum.

The news is full of people being "R"etrenched. They are being retrenched because business is preparing itself for "R"ecession so it needs to conserve cash and that means some jobs are made "R"edundant.

If people dont spend in our economy, there will be more "R"edundancy. Dont get me wrong it is good for the Government to spend on infrastructure and other incentives in building as that has a flow on effect to the retail and services economy. But as less people travel to Australia and more of us stay home for holidays, the more people will grow to be "R"edundant.

Tonight I am repairing my pool chlorinator. Normally I would have replaced it. But making sure I conserve cash, I am getting a full life out of it before I am forced to replace.

I bet you are doing the same?

GST Madness

Straight from the ATO Website.......

A crazy tax system..... you think !

What are pizza rolls?

Pizza rolls are savoury bread rolls similar to cheese-topped and cheese and bacon rolls. They are also called Italian rolls.

Pizza rolls are sold on the day they are baked.

Generally, pizza rolls:

• can be cut and filled
• have a traditional bread dough base
• have a topping or filling that is less than 30% of the roll’s depth
• don’t have any of the three characteristics of pizza, pizza subs or pizza pockets.

Characteristics of pizzas, pizza subs and pizza pockets

Pizzas, pizza subs and pizza pockets:

• cannot be cut and filled, do not need filling or topping added and are ready to eat
• are made with dough (sometimes called ‘pizza dough’) with more oil and less yeast than traditional bread dough
• have a topping or filling that is more than 30% of the product’s depth.

How do you treat pizza rolls for GST?

Pizza rolls can be either taxable or GST-free.

When pizza rolls are GST-free

Schedule 1 in the GST law lists foods that are taxable.

A food is GST-free if it is:

• not listed in Schedule 1
• for human consumption.

Pizza rolls are:

• not listed in Schedule 1
• for human consumption
• GST-free if they are not
• similar to pizza, pizza subs, pizza pockets (see below)
• sold ready filled and ready to eat like a sandwich or roll.

When pizza rolls are taxable

Pizza rolls are taxable if the rolls are similar to pizza, pizza subs, pizza pockets (see below).

What is ‘similar food’ to pizza rolls?

Similar food has:

• a general likeness to pizzas, pizza subs or pizza pockets
• all of the three common characteristics of pizzas, pizza subs and pizza pockets.

Example: GST-free rolls

Alex’s Gourmet Foods sells pizza rolls which are baked fresh daily. Customers buy the rolls to take away.

The dough base is flour, salt, oil, yeast and water. The toppings are tomato, bacon, pineapple, herbs and cheese. The topping makes up 20% of the roll’s depth. The customer can add more filling to the roll if they want to.

The rolls are GST-free because the:

• rolls can be cut and filled
• topping depth is less than 30% of the depth of the product.

Example: Taxable rolls

Leo’s Universal Foods sells pizza rolls which are baked fresh daily. Customers buy the rolls to take away.

The dough base is flour, a lot of olive oil, a very small amount of yeast, water and salt. The toppings are tomato, bacon, pineapple, herbs and cheese. The topping makes up 35% of the roll’s depth. The customer can’t cut through the roll to add more filling.

The rolls are taxable because the:

• rolls don’t need extra topping or filling
• topping makes up 30% of the product’s depth
• rolls are similar to pizza, pizza subs and pizza pockets.

Does your computer take too long to Startup?

What is it about PCs and the time they take to startup? How come a new PC can start real quick but after a period of time it takes forever? You know the morning routine.......login and go off to get a cup of coffee while the computer gets ready for you to use it.

Usually, it is the amount of "software" that you have on the computer. When it is new, unless it has been stuffed with Try Me applications at birth, the PC will start quickly. But as time goes on, we all install applications to do various things. These applications all want to load in a way that makes them easily accessible from the System Tray or be quick startup. As we add application after application we increase the startup time of the PC.

That is the simple answer. Yes, the more technical users will talk about Registry issues and other esoteric discussions. But the bottom line is: "If you buy a PC with MS Windows on it, with Office and install no other software on it......ever, it will startup pretty fast all the time."

But we are all human. We buy a phone these days and it has a CD that has software to connect the phone up. Then we get another phone and we dont delete the software from the previous phone. We add printers so we have to install some more software. We want to burn CD backups of our "music collection" so we install some more software. An email comes with an attractive application that offers a Try Me for free, so we install that to see how it goes.......you get my point?

Tax Cuts for Small Business

Good news for your business: "To further assist small businesses during the global financial crisis, the government recently announced a tax cut to the quarterly Pay As You Go (PAYG) instalment. The PAYG reduction will generally only be available to small business entities which have an aggregated turnover of $2 million per annum or less.

For PAYG instalments due on either 21 January 2009 or 28 February 2009, the amount payable will be reduced by 20 per cent."

Any reduction in the amount of tax paid by a small business is good and this announcement before Xmas on Dec 17th was a good Xmas present. See the ATO website for more information.
