Sometimes it can be hard to admit, when things aren't going to plan. But the problems get bigger, and the hole gets deeper, the longer it's left without help.
There are many reasons, that can cause a business to become distressed.
The first step, is to admit you have a problem.
Common signs of distress
- Loss of market share
- Loss of reputation
- Stagnant or dropping revenue
- Increased overhead %
- Bank demands more information
- Suppliers reduce credit terms
- Accounts frozen or 'on stop'
- Payment cards rejected at checkout
- Bank asks for additional security
- Staff turnover is increasing
- Unhappy staff
- Increasing need to borrow more capital
- Financial records filed later & later
- Finance director on long term sick leave (or quits)
- Overdraft is above the limit
- Cheques bouncing
- Bank requests some repayment
- Statutory payments in arrears (PAYE, VAT)
- Legal actions (Writs, CCJ's)
- Bailiff's visiting your premises
- Debt collection letters
- Insolvency practitioner letters offering help
- Unable to pay staff wages
- Unable to pay rent on the business premises
- Creditor terms are stretched
- Bidding landmark projects, hoping to turn it around
Without working on all these areas, the same problems will return within a few months
