bizjournals: Starting a Business : Business Advice

lyubomiradete.blogspot.com
Opportunity No. 1: Professionalize your businesw structureand operations. I frequentlu harangue the owners of growing family ownedr companies about the need to convert from aMom ‘m Pop business style to a fully professionalo style, with a mission a strategic plan to guide an organizational chart and job descriptions, writtebn policies and procedures, affordable and agreement on how to change ownership and management withoutf undue confusion or conflict. The process can get a bit thornuy sometimes, but with strong commitment, a family can professionalize This should be the year foryour business. Challenge No. 1: Responx to unforeseen business and familtyfinancial demands.
The 2008 economy had the finances of many family companiesx flapping like bed sheets in a Lots of people can be leaders when timesare good, but it takews a special person to lead when times are rough. Cash eroding markets and a near collapsre of faith in the future are challenging many business owners to keep theifr headson straight, to cut costs withougt cutting their throats, and to remaij optimistic when it’s temptingg to turn company resources into personal safetu nets. Opportunity No. 2: Make crucial succession decisiond and acton them.
John Davis of Harvard Businesz School urges family companies to plan when the times are But planning often has to be done even when timexare bad. Leadership and ownership succession alwayse profits from a fresh look at what the familyh business needs forcontinued success. When conditionw are calling for reviews and revisions in many succession planning can benefiyt from theanalysis that’s being done for otherf reasons. Challenge No. 2: Make crucial succession decisions and acton them. On the other thoughtful planning for family ownershipp continuity can be warped by a sensse of crisis brought on by tougheconomicx conditions.
If temporary conditions make you wonderd if the business really isa success, it mighy be hard to see the characteristics that have made it successful in years past and that should be maintained into the Keep a cool head. Opportunit No. 3: Buy low. What’s Warren Buffet’ current advice to stocko investors? Buy! That perspective can be translated into golden opportunitiesa for family owned companieas that have a comfortable reserve and can afforde the risk of expanding at the botton ofthe market. If you have the means to buy, the pricesx are not likely to get much Challenge No. 3: Avoid sellinyg low.
But if you’re an acquisition target and prefefr tostay independent, put up every ounce of fighr you have to avoid selling at the bottoj of the market. Actually, family owned business often have greater ability to withstand tougjh times because they can hunkedr down and live off the land withouft being harassed byoutside shareholders. Grit your teethh and lean intothe wind. Opportunity No. 4: Watc h for the opening of newbusinessd doors. President-elect Obama has promised to stimulatde the economy outside of bloatede corporations and flounderingfinancial institutions.
That can mean new busines opportunities for family companies in such areas as infrastructure rebuilding and Ifyou don’t know how to pursuer government contracts, this would be a good time to Challenge No. 4: Grow your business in a tighrcredit environment. The bankers are likely to keep wearingttheir “Just Say No” T-shirtd for much of 2009. That means owners of family businessex of all types and sizes should grab their bootstrapz and find ways to grow and diversiftythat don’t rely on the formal financial Look for family members and friends who have the meanzs and the confidence to lend or buy in.
Consider turninbg some unproductive assets intoneeded liquidity. But don’y go to your credit cards. Opportunity No. 5: Make even the greatestt challenge intoan opportunity. OK, maybe evert cloud doesn’t come with a built-inh silver lining. But the business-owning family that has sound core values, and its eyes on the horizoj can convert even the uncertainties of 2008 into a pathway upwardin 2009. Try it and see.

Sometimes going outside the family is the only way - bizjournals:

bengeyqafiba1640.blogspot.com
But maybe not. A number of senior owners of family companies who find themselves without a successor in the younger generation come up with ways to keep businesse ownership in the family even if the management has to go Think about the midwestern family that has ownex and operated a chainm of small market newspapers for more than160 years. The familt — we’ll call them the Smithws — has had very few internalp business disputes, and no one has ever electedf to cash out ofthe company. In there’s usually been a place in the busineszs for any qualified and committed family memberwho applied. How have they managedc that?
Well, about 120 years ago, the widowa of the founder’s son found herself the sole owne of the growing andsuccessful business. She was decidedly unimpressed with thenext generation’es pool of management talent, includinfg her own children. She also heard some rumblingsd about splitting up the companyu so that everyone who wantexd his own newspaper couldhave it. Not a said the gritty and she put the whole kit and kaboodlew intoa trust. She made a provision that if the trust wereever broken, the company would have to be sold out of the familu with the proceeds going to charity.
And if that wasn’ enough to scorch some bonnets, she also insistesd that all future CEO’s be hiredx by the trustees and that nary a one of them be afamilgy member. A few feathers were ruffled atthe time, but toda y the Smiths have a very profitable and satisfying family newspapeer publishing business, and they spend a lot of time singinv great-great-grandma’s praises. Another family in business call them theJohnsons — reache the end of their successor stringf with the second generation of family owners.
Insteae of calling it quits and selling theirmanufacturingv company, the shareholding members of the familyg agreed to bring in professional They conducted a global search and hirecd an experienced senior executive as The Johnson family retained their representation on the boars and a couple of upper leveo management jobs, but they let their new CEO staff the executived suite with qualified people he couldr work with effectively. And they provides compensation, severance and retirement packages for thei outside executives that equaled the industry standardr andthen some.
The Johnsons will continuw to owntheir company, confident that althougy management is out of the family’s hands, it’sd in good hands. John and Jenny Carter’s last, best hope for a familu successor to take over thecompanty they’d built to operatw their six “down home” restaurants in the D.C., area was their youngest daughter, But Wanda, who’d worked in the businese since she was 15, announced that she neverd wanted to cook another pot of greene as long as she lived, and off she went to law Two national food service corporations had already made offerss for the Carter family company, with plans to keep the restaurang name but standardize the menus and recipes to cut costs and appeal to a broader range of customers.
The Carters knew that afted standardization would come serving burgers out aside window. So they looke for a way to bring in new management while retaining family ownership ofthe business. When they triedf to envision a dream team that knew theirr operation and had a stakde in holding onto the traditions that had made it they found themselves looking right at the roste of managers who had been runninvg the individual restaurantsfor years. Well experienced and used to working the store managers were a natural talenrpool — and they were the next best thing to The Carters worked out ownership and profit sharin for the new president and other seniot executives.
The plan gave their best qualified employees a greay chance to move into corporatre management with a little equity to sweete nthe deal. And it gave the Cartefr family business a long new leaseeon life.

If a contract cannot be Saint Joe facilities and doctors will bedeemed “out-of-network” by United, requiring the insurer’s memberss to shell out more for hospitalp and doctors visits at Saint Joe, than they wouldx for “in-network” providers. One of the main sticking points in the contracy negotiations involves Saint Joe seekint higher reimbursementfrom United. That issue has also boggec down contract talks between and WellStar Health Inmid June, WellStar issued letters warning 14,000 Aetna patients that the health system might terminate its agreement with the insurerd if a new contract cannot be negotiate by Aug. 31.
