5 Reasons Why Businesses Fail
The 5 Reasons Why Businesses Fail.
​
This will no doubt spark some interest in Business Owners that we often inform about upcoming court matters and that are struggling right now.
No matter what industry you’re in, everybody is feeling the pinch, it’s our responsibility to help Business Owner, turn things around. This also includes us educating you in areas that might feel foreign to you, this only could make a huge difference to your business we assure you it helps you moving forward.
​
Our research and assistance provided to client over the last 30 years is the reason we now need to inform the business community of the 5 Reasons Why Businesses Fail.
Please read the below notes and for a more in-depth discussion of each of the 5 points, and if you have any questions or concerns, particularly if you identify with 1 or more of these points, please get in touch with Abbott Adams Solvency Guardians to see how we can assist your business.
Here are the 5 Reasons Why Businesses Fail:
​
#1 Not having an active relationship with your Accountant or Solicitor/ lack of business advise.
Most business owners do not have an active relationship with professional people that can advise them long before there are problems, their accounting records are not up to date, and therefore they simply shoot from the hip or rely on what’s in the bank and ignoring trading terms with creditors.
There are many legal obligations Business Owners are never told about when they start a business. The best way to protect yourself is to have a relationship with a qualified Advisor to help you run your business, particularly one that understands solvency when it comes to you taking on new financial commitments and opportunities.
#2 Not understanding how your Accounting Software works.
Our business statistics clearly shows that most Business Owners struggle to read their balance sheets and within the profit loss are not claiming all the benefits they are entitled to. It’s also essential that Business Owners know how to produce managements report, thus allowing them to interpret their Profit and Loss Statement, as well as learn to recognise the key indicators that the business is struggling. Failing to plan is a plan to fail.
#3 Being ‘the Operator’ vs ‘the Business Owner’.
The Founder of a business is generally highly skilled and enjoys doing what he does, unfortunately that does not make you a good Business Owner.
As the business grows you need to manage inventory, people, financial and legal obligations, particularly as a Director. These skills you need to acquire and are things we teach you, because ignorance isn’t a legal defence if your liquidated or sued.

#4 Having a lack of systems and processes in your business.
We have acted for many Defendant Directors and Small business proprietors in the Corporate and Family Courts on a Daily basis for protecting Businesses Owners interests that initially didn’t know they were being sued or wound up.
The Abbott Adams Due Diligence & Intelligence division issues Daily alerts to those we find in daily National Federal and Supreme Court records whereby we issue timely alert to imminent Insolvency proceedings, many of our Clients were initially unaware.
How does that happen simple their registered office is either at accountants’ office or at an address they don’t use any more or failed to update ASIC records.
When it comes to defending them we find they run their business on an ad hoc basis, (robbing peter to pay paul!) they manage their cash flow and accounting systems, on a do it when I need to, this leads to insolvent trading and is first step towards insolvency, if that is you then you require urgent assistance!
At all levels of your business, planning is essential.
#5 Not having a formal system to understand and create consistent cash flow.
As Advisors and from experience its important you understand, your obligations and that you must ensure that your business is trading solvent (keeping in mind that if your in a payment plan with anyone then you are considered insolvent, simply because you cannot pay your bills when they fall due).
You must also keep in mind that GST, PAYGE AND SUPA are all debts personal to the Director and or business owner, therefore you must comply with your legal obligations or risk losing personal assets and credibility.
