Small business profits – threat or opportunity
Turn-on your television or pick up a newspaper and all that is reported right now, apart from the present swine flu problem, is the "credit crunch" - falling house prices, rising unemployment, businesses going bust, repossessions, bankruptcies and more... So what should small businesses do? Well this depends on whether you see this as an opportunity or a threat. There are no doubt certain businesses that will find these times more difficult than others, for example, only today there are reports about how the number of unemployed lorry drivers has gone up almost 5-fold since this time last year. Where businesses are selling less and therefore resulting in a less of a need for transport, then transport companies will see a dip in demand and as a consequence might need to make redundancies.

How to Handle the Price Objection
I am a firm believer that “Price is only an issue in the absence of value.” Never drop you price! Anyone who will leave their current supplier for a better price will also leave you for a better price. Create loyalty through value. If you feel that your prices are too high because you have bought into ‘The sky is falling” mentality of our current economy, then lower your prices across the board but stick to that price once you have presented it to the client.
