Making a Plan: How Entrepreneurs Win on the Weekend

So you are about to kick back and enjoy the weekend right? Easy afternoons and margaritas? Well, for most business owners you know the work never stops. Whether it's dealing with employees, buying merchandise or strategic late night planning, being the boss is tough. Small businesses are tough, enigmatic and can keep you up at night and we know that. So what does that mean for you? You have to start keeping your weekends organized too.

A great article in Business Insider dove into this exact concept and we highly recommend it for our entrepreneurs and small business owners out there. One of the great takeaways was to keep a schedule during the weekend--even if that's the last thing you want to do:
Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee says you need to have a plan for the weekend, setting specific hours or minutes aside for activities you want to do.Then you have to commit.
Huckabee advises: "If you know you want to read a book, then get the book out and have it set aside and make plans to read it. Say it's going to be at 1. When that starts, get on it. Don't wait until that afternoon, then think — could I read? Or listen to some music? Or take a walk? Then you'll sit about wasting an hour of what little time you have figuring out what to do with the rest of it."
You have to be disciplined and commit to the decisions you make. 

However you are going to spend the weekend is your business--just maybe make a plan?

Car Dealer Business Loans - Fact or Fiction?

We've told you about how car dealerships are occasionally a tough space to get business funding for.

We've also seen how the banks have somewhat abandoned the small business owner to the point that funding rates from the banks have almost completely evaporated. So what does that mean for the car dealer who is still looking for answers? Give up? Didn't think so. With Silver Rock Funding, you have the opportunity to look at new ways to finance and alternative lending sources. Just like the good salesmen and the bad salesmen working your sales floor--some lenders are better than others. Consider the differences in behavior according to the Joe Verde Group:

72% of customers tell their salesperson they are “just looking” at the initial greeting.
71% of customers say they bought their vehicle because they like, trusted and respected their salesperson.
85% of consumers say their salesperson DID NOT control the sales process, build any rapport or interviewed their sales person.
88% of customers said they received a lousy presentation and demonstration.
50% of customers said they bought on the spot when they got what they felt was a good presentation and demonstration.
93% of customers did not get a service walk as part of the sales process.
94% of salespeople are not confident of the price in the close.
90% of sales people DO NOT do any follow-up whether the customer purchases or not.
82% of customers cannot remember the sales persons name 1 year after their purchase.
78% of customers who visit your showroom buy a vehicle somewhere.
85% of customers made up their mind to purchase a vehicle before they left their house.
38% of customers purchase within 4 hours of visiting their first dealership.
57% of consumers purchase within 3 days of visiting their first dealership.
90% of customers purchase within 1 week of visiting their first dealership.

30% of customers have a family member who will purchase a vehicle in the next 90 days.

When it is time to get started on a small business loan, we could help provide you with the financing you need. You could be approved within 24 hours and you could have funding in your account in as little as 72 hours.

Your car dealership loan is a safe and easy way to get the small business loan and alternative funding you are looking for. For most small business loans, you are going to need to submit six months of bank statements and three months of merchant processing statements.

Pizza Business Loans?

Who needs a business loan to get a slice of pizza? Well, no one. But from franchises to mom and pop Pizza shops, Silver Rock Funding has been helping pizza joints get cash for expansion, renovation and even new ovens. Since opening our doors in 2014, Silver Rock Funding has helped businesses get access to over $6 million in funding and restaurants are a big reason why. Pizza shop loans sound like a crazy concept, but consider this: the pizza industry brings in $32 billion a year and there are over 70,000 pizzerias in the United States. So what does that mean for you as a business owner looking for funding? Well, we've done this before and you aren't alone. With affordable options to work around your budget and structure, Silver Rock Funding is able to work with you to get you the cash you need and deserve.

Additionally, the pizza industry is dominated by the independent--which is good news for those of us that like to support the little guy out there. Not everything is Pizza Hut and Domino's, after all. Although, if you watch TV and specifically NFL games, you know it does kind of feel like Papa John's is everywhere!
