BLATANT SIGNS YOUR SMALL COMPANY IS GOING DOWNHILL

Businesses are a little bit like ice creams on a sunny day – they don’t last forever. Either they melt in the heat or get eaten. Either way, the outcome is rarely good long-term. 

Eventually, therefore, you’ll find your business on shaky ground. Something will change (usually technology, regulation or consumer tastes), and your firm will start to go downhill.

The trick is to recognize when circumstances conspire against you so you can take action to mitigate the fallout. 

There is no shame in admitting your business has a problem. Just look at what happened to Apple in the early 1990s. The company nearly went bankrupt after becoming bloated and delivering sub-par products to consumers that destroyed its brand and reputation. 

The trick is to identify issues early so that you can respond effectively. Here are the signs and what to do.  (more…)

4 WAYS TO HUSTLE FOR CASH WHEN YOU’RE BORED

Your boss might pay you to be in the office for a set number of hours in the day but you can often find yourself at a loose end with nothing to do. The problem is even worse if you’re stuck at home, thanks to something like the coronavirus lockdown. The hours can pass without anything actually happening. 

Where possible, you want to use your time as productively as possible. You don’t want to spend every hour of every day just wondering what to do next. It’s better if you are provided with regular work.

Even the best jobs, though, go through periods of inactivity. It’s those dreary moments where it makes sense to switch your attention to a side hustle – something you can do to keep the income flowing, even if you’re at a loose end. 

In this post, we’re going to look at some of the jobs you can do to make a little money on the side, especially if you work from home.

HOW TO START FLIPPING ITEMS – 4 IDEAS

When it comes to making money, you want to do it as quickly as possible so that you can move on to your next venture. Flipping is the perfect process because it allows you to buy a cheap or affordable item, spruce it up, and sell it on for a profit. Property is a prime example. All you need to do is a bit of DIY and redecoration and, voila, the property will have positive equity.

Of course, not everybody has the money to buy a property or pay off a second mortgage. So, property, while the most popular version of flipping, could be out of your comfort zone. Don’t worry, though, because it’s possible to flip more than a run-down, dilapidated house. As long as what your spend is less than the ROI, then you can flip anything.

Here are four examples of things that you may not realise you could sell-on for a hefty profit.
