Is YOUR Bank
Overcharging You?
It’s surprising how many business owners don’t look at their
options when it comes to banking. Usually, they choose a bank that’s closest to
their place of business, for convenience. But as banks continue to raise fees,
you could save quite a bit simply by shopping around.
The Reserve Bank of Australia recently revealed how much
banks earned from banks fees in 2009. Fees jumped 13% over the past year, and
banks earned a total of $7.6 billion. That’s quite a bit of change, especially
for merchants.
Experts recommend that business owners shop for a bank the
same way they would for any other type of equipment. Banks, and their fees,
vary widely, so it’s more than worth your time to look at your options.
Start by looking at your business’s needs. Do you have a lot
of transactions each month, or just a few? Is it important you have a bank that
has an easy lending process, or do you have enough cash on-hand to get by
without regular loans?
It’s also important to look at the banks’ interest rates. If
you do keep a lot of cash on-hand, then it might be worth it to put up with
higher fees if you’ll be earning more interest each month.
Last, make sure you carefully examine the bank’s fees before
signing up. Many banks charge fees if you go over your transaction limit, don’t
keep enough cash in your account, or even visit the teller too often. Many
Australian banks offer no-fee accounts for merchants, so look for these banks
specifically when you start shopping around. Some business owners have saved
$4000 or more per year simply by switching to another bank.
Want to Buy a Property for Your Business?
New Report Cautions Against Investing in Popular Regions
When it comes to your business you’ve probably heard the old adage “location, location, location”. After all, you could have a great business, but if it’s in a lousy spot then the odds are against you making it over the long term.
So, how do you know where to locate your business? Or, for that matter, how can you tell if the business you’re thinking about buying is in a good spot?Many entrepreneurs and investors think that property in population “hot spots” is always a sure bet. But a new report put out by Australian property analyst Terry Ryder, and published in Smart Company, dispels this notion. According to Ryder’s report, several popular coastal towns such as Byron Bay and the Gold Coast regions are overheated. This means you’ll pay far more to rent or buy in these markets, and experience greater volatility in the years to come.
Other overheated markets are Melbourne’s high-class suburbs of Toorak, Armadale and Brighton, as well as Mount Isa, in Queensland. Anyone wanting to locate their business in these areas are going to pay top price, and are likely to see property values fall in the coming years.
So, how do you know where to locate your business?
It’s vital you do your own research instead of just watching the news or talking to friends or real estate investors.
Look at factors such as:
• Job Market
• Pollution Issues
• Access to Transportation (public and private)
• Tax rates
• Distance from your supplies/distributors
• Local demographics
• Property value trends
Business owners that use all their resources to do a personal investigation on properties will almost always choose a successful location compared to colleagues who just talk to one or two sources. It’s important to spend ample time investigating potential spots; the choice could mean the difference between sinking or swimming with your business.
