Cynopsis: Classified
Advantage
10/11/11
Good morning – it’s Tuesday, October 11, 2011, and this is your weekly issue of Cyn opsis: Classified Advantage!
Most start-ups fail because they run out of cash. The idea is good, the execution is there, but the cash evaporates long before the owner expected.
Considering a start-up company? The first thing you should do is contact the Small Business Administration (SBA). They will provide you with vital information on starting your own business. Plus, they will help you navigate the process of starting a business and provide resources throughout that process and after.
The SBA has special agencies for certain communities such as veterans.
They will assist in the procurement of a loan and act as an advocate. The SBA has training for small business owners, and aid if disaster strikes.
It is essential for anyone who is starting up a new business to contact the SBA.
Prior to contacting the SBA, you should determine start up costs. Here are some guidelines:
You should plan for at least nine months of no income when determining start up costs.
Establish how long you can run the business without any income.
Determine one time costs versus ongoing costs.
Separate costs into two categories, essential and optional. What I need to have, versus what I would love to have. Once you have written out the two lists, put aside the optional. Don’t consider any optional costs until you have a firm financial base.
Take the essential list and break it up further; fixed costs and variable. Fixed would include rent, insurance, salaries and utilities. Variable costs are inventory, packaging, shipping, commissions, etc.
Always have some money set aside for emergencies or unexpected events. These are common occurrences with new business owners.
Before you purchase anything, weigh the pros and cons of the item. Remember, with any new business, cash is king.
Have all your finances written out in a clear and understandable format. Be conservative, not hopeful in your document. If you are asking for a loan,make sure you have represented your situation in an objective manner.
Understand that all local, state and federal agencies have their own rules and regulations concerning businesses. This can be very burdensome on someone trying to start their own business. Another reason to contact the SBA before you get too far into the process.
Be very conservative during the beginning stages, understand your competition, and what sets you apart from them. The SBA will also help you with this and even assist in marketing strategies.
Most people love small businesses versus chain stores, but when money is tight, sometimes shopping at a Mom & Pop rather than a bigbox, becomes a luxury many can’t afford. Customer service only goes so far, ending at the wallet. You need to stand out for other reasons.

Figuring out what you want from what you don’t want when the choices are not always abundant or exciting, may make you feel like you are forced into a corner without too much wiggle room. When you are faced with the inevitable challenge of choosing a job when the choices are limited, make room for yourself and move the borders. Knowing that there are limitless choices in the Universe of Jobs makes it easier for you not to feel like you are sorting fact from fiction in your quest for your next career adventure.
Consider your job search without borders. Yes, it’s hard to find a job period let alone find one you love. But just like dating, keeping your options open and not settling for the first one that comes along applies to your job search as well. Have you ever wondered what it would be like if your choices were endless? Think about the possibilities of being able to change the outcome each and every time you had a chance to try reliving the perfect interview or accepting the ideal job offer. When you know that you are in it to win it, nothing else matters and your quest is less about choosing from the limited jobs than it is from grabbing one of the limitless opportunities that are out there for you.
Here are a few ways to harness the limitless job prospects that stand before you:
- 1) Know that you are the best you can be in all that you do and that you can not possibly fail;
2) Embrace your confidence and realize you have the choice to walk away from any situation good or bad because there is another one, infinitely better waiting for you;
3) You can get any job you want by leveraging your internal and external allies and harnessing the intent of your actions;
4) You can create the job you want from any situation as long as you have the passion and the ambition to visualize and realize your dream;
5) Get out of your own way and stop believing there is a lack of jobs out there (despite the unemployment reports), and know that you have the skill and the ability to find, create and secure a meaningful job from all that exits.
You are the master of your own job search destiny whether you embrace that fact or not. Having the ability to see beyond your current situation and know that there is more out there for you will help you to stay focused on your limitless job prospects. Keeping the faith in times of trouble is a good way for you to objectively balance your ambitions from your fears and focus on the outcome of your efforts. There is more out there than meets the eye, know it, feel it and by all means go after it!

If you have any specific questions you’d like our Experts to address, please email them to me, John Cox at [email protected].
I have a well groomed beard, but I rarely see any CEO or other employees with facial hair. Is my beard hurting my chances of getting a job?
I don’t think facial hair is necessarily a deterrent in your chances at positioning yourself for CEO roles. Let’s look at some “bearded” CEO’s and you can decide whether their intelligence, or their hair stood in their way towards success.
Larry Ellison, Philip Knight and Paul Allen are just a few bearded CEO’s who come to mind and who have made fame with their name and not their bearded face.
Let’s not kid ourselves, your looks do play an important part in creating a professional image. However, like anything else, it’s how you carry yourself, and set yourself apart from the rest, beard or no beard, that’s going to get you in line for the next CEO position.
Focus on your assets, your skills, intelligence, qualifications and of course your image and don’t focus on what you think could be a problem because if you are uncomfortable, it will come across no matter what position you are considering.
Other than gaining new possible contacts, is there any reason to be on Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn? Even if you get new contacts, what are the chances these people would put their reputation at risk, for someone they’ve never met? Has there been studies concerning the effectiveness of social media?
Social media allows you to cast the widest net possible. The good news is you get more bang for your job-seeking buck, the bad news is your buck doesn’t go very far these days.
What these social networking sites offer is a way to reach a large mass at a single time. You just never know, to your point, who exactly is in a position to find what you “tweet” compelling enough to consider you for a job. That applies to Facebook as well for that matter.
LinkedIn although the “professionals” choice, can become so overwhelming with unsolicited requests to “connect” you really have to become an expert in learning how to mine, navigate to your next career connection.
I think the best way to use LinkedIn is to ask for a referral from your existing network to connect to someone in a company that you may be interested in applying to. This way it adds some credibility instead of sending a request to get connected without any context.
Knowing your audience even when you don’t actually “know” your audience helps you make inroads all the while being professionally courteous and respectful of people’s time. There are studies by many of the top consulting firms and Social Media Today and other networking groups post discussions on effectiveness of social media on audience participation on job boards and in particular whether anyone ever gets a job through any one of them.
Knowing how to position yourself through key words and descriptors helps to highlight your qualifications to the thousands of recruiters who use LinkedIn to source passive candidates. So even though you may not have 500 + connections in LinkedIn, make sure you spend time creating a searchable and compelling profile so recruiters find you even though you may not be looking for them.
