A company in trouble – the appropriate time to seek advice

A company in trouble – the appropriate time to seek advice

A number of company directors will tell us after they have contacted us that they were unsure about when to make that first initial contact for advice, help and assistance.

 There is no one golden bullet answer to this question as each situation will demand attention on its own merits. It is fair to say however, that if you consider your business, there will be certain triggers that make you sit up and say "things are not right".

 Receipt of court proceedings   

 We get a large number of calls from Directors asking for help because they have either ignored letters before action, or simply not had the available funds to make payments to creditors. If these situations are left for any length of time them proceedings or worse, a creditors winding up petition is inevitable.

 In our site we set out advice for companies on getting their outstanding debtor ledgers in and part of the advice is to sue. It is not a first step, and so to have proceedings must have meant you haven't paid your accounts for some time. That in itself must have triggered worries, and so even if you didn't take help and advice at that time, you need to call for advice now.

 It is one thing to delay payment to suppliers so that you can maximise cash flow, it is another to ignore creditors completely.

 Bouncing the overdraft ceiling

 The company bank overdraft, should only be used in an emergency to dip into for additional funds when either a payment to you is slow in coming or you need extra supplies for anew project. So many companies we see have gone into the overdraft and now routinely need it for cash flow. They have simply no chance to get out of the overdraft situation, because fundamentally the business is not strong enough to do that. Bouncing the overdraft ceiling will worry the bank who may decide to reduce the overdraft level. If you have personally guaranteed your borrowing, please call us as soon as you can, because to ignore these signs can have a catastrophic personal consequence.

 Loss of your major customer

In harsh economic times, the business environment is littered with failed businesses. For every failed business there will be twenty others both large and small who suffer to some degree or another. If you are a small business and you are reliant to any great extent on one supplier or one customer, the demise of that important business could spell the death knell to your own business. As soon as you think there may be a problem with a major supplier, you need to take advice on how best to protect your business and its assets. Be pro-active.
