Filing Personal Bankruptcy Help

For most small business owners, the thought of liquidation is appalling and grotesque. The media depicts their general ideas associated with liquidating into your brain: Front pages of newspapers read bankruptcy, tickers scroll the bottom of your televisions with exponentially increasing debt figures, and small businesses stick up gaudy neon-colored ‘STORE CLOSING SALE’ signs that scream urgency. With the economy in its current state, it’s not difficult to fall victim of all the hype [and scare]. Yet, the media fails to acknowledge the rest of the liquidation business; the beneficial business strategy of liquidation: converting your obsolete, overstock, salvage, returns, and excess inventory into immediate, upfront, and usable cash.

There are two major forms of liquidation: compulsory and voluntary. When you hear of liquidation in the media, it is compulsory liquidation, which is when you are forced to liquidate by law. Compulsory liquidation is the last resort for a business. It involves selling off every aspect of the business, from their inventory all the way up to their debts. When a company is compulsory liquidating, they are closing their doors for good. The latter form, voluntary liquidation, is the unspoken strategy that is used frequently within all Fortune 500 businesses. The top businesses in the current economy are ones that are liquidating inventory everyday. Today we will discuss some of the benefits of voluntary liquidation, and how applying this strategy to your business model will benefit you both immediately and in the long-run.

Inventory management and control should be very important to all manufacturers, retailers, and distributors. Large inventories always look appealing to consumers, but truthfully a large inventory can be a huge burden on a business. Generally, the greater the size of the inventory, the greater the costs are to maintain that inventory. An enormous amount of businesses fail because they sit on too much inventory. A rule-of-thumb for a business is that they should spend less than 1/3rd (one-third) of their usable cash on their inventory. Regardless of strict inventory management, problem inventory is unavoidable. Sometimes inventory gets hidden, wrong purchases happen, and physical inventory counts are incorrect. Having a reputable liquidator on file is always smart for when these instances arise.

Here is how a reputable liquidator can help you:

1. Receive CASH For Your Obsolete and Excess Inventory

Excess inventory is inevitable. Merchandise is often targeted towards the times, foods expire, and technology changes – and sometimes you’re stuck with leftovers. Sometimes the economy affects consumer spending and you’re left with merchandise that is not selling. Regardless of the reason, you have inventory that should be earning you profit, except its adding you’re your expenses. A reputable and knowledgeable liquidation company understands your needs and is capable of converting these problem inventories into immediate and usable cash.

2. Protect Your Brand

It is not uncommon for a company to pay to have their excess inventories destroyed. Typically a company will use this method to avoid their product ending up in the secondary market. Rather than spending money out of your pocket to make your merchandise disappear, a reputable liquidator will pay you immediate cash, while protecting your brand and identity.

3. Channel Control

The last thing your business wants to hear is that their product was put into the wrong hands. You do not want to find your merchandise in your own marketplace. Using a reputable liquidator can prevent your product from re-entering your market.

4. UPFRONT IMMEDIATE CASH

You have a multimillion dollar inventory that you need to sell with strict time restraints. Most other companies are going to need terms, Net-30, or Net-90 – but that doesn’t work for you. A reputable liquidator has the capital to make such a purchase, without ANY terms.

So you see, liquidation is not nearly as bad as the news makes you think. Liquidation does not mean you are going out of business, rather it means that you are being cost effective and lowering your risk. The trick behind liquidation is to comprehend exactly what liquidation is, and making the decision to liquidate at the right time. In the end, liquidation can save you a lot more money than you think.
