7 Financial Strategies for Transitioning from Salaried to Solo

Judging Entrepreneurial Ideas


Most entrepreneurs constantly come up with new ideas. Whether they are working on another project, driving, or lying in bed, their minds are constantly churning out new products, services and ways of doing things. For these entrepreneurs, the startup challenge shifts from coming up with ideas to choosing which idea to execute.

An Entrepreneurs Biggest Cost


When launching a new product or company, an entrepreneur must consider their biggest cost - the opportunity cost. Opportunity cost is an economic term that is defined as the cost of passing up the next best alternative when making a decision. For instance, if an asset such as capital is used for one purpose, the opportunity cost is the value of the next best purpose for which the asset could have been used. In the entrepreneur?s case, this asset typically includes the entrepreneur?s time and money.

Identifying the Right Venture Capital Firm Partner


Venture capital firms are comprised of individual partners. These partners make investment decisions and typically take a seat on each portfolio company?s Board. Partners tend to invest in what they know, so finding a partner that has past work experience in your industry is very helpful. This relevant experience allows them to more fully understand your venture?s value proposition and gives them confidence that they can add value, thus encouraging them to invest.

Preparing to Outsource


It's important to understand when to add individuals to your business model. Adding a new team member should be an easy transition - that?s where organization comes in. Clearly defined processes such as workflow, workspace, filing system, and other key functions in the business should be identified. Structure is one of the most overlooked aspects of business success ? especially time management and documentation structures.

The Boss is DEAD!


Some of us are born into families with "it", some of us are just driven over the edge to "it", and some of us crave "it", but just haven?t figured out how to attain "it."

Business Development: The Basic Ingredients

What Kind of Business Should I Start?


It?s not uncommon to reach your 30s, 40s or even 50s and still wonder, ?What do I want to be when I grow up?? Few people are fortunate enough to be certain of their destinies early on and the rest of us are forced to do some soul searching.

Starting Your Business: It All Boils Down To Making Money and Saving Money


Bootstrapping in the context of business start-ups refers to the use of creative financing approaches such as leveraging personal savings, credit-card debt, loans from friends and family, bartering, and other means to launch a business. Some business founders use bootstrapping because they have no other choice. Just about anyone who has approached a bank has learned that ?only established businesses need apply.? Bankers typically look for cash flow, assets, an established customer base, and a successful track record on the part of the business that is seeking a start-up loan. Obviously, this is a short list that is impossible to fulfill when you are just getting started.
