Ten Effective Ways To Reduce Your Business Costs
by: Dan Brown

Business cost for everyone can get out of control very fast. Here's ten simple yet POWERFUL ways to
reduce cost that can have a GREAT effect on the health of your business.

1. Barter If you have a business you should be bartering goods and services with other businesses.
You should try to trade for something before you buy it. Barter deals usually require little or no money.

2. Network Try networking your business with other businesses. You could trade leads or mailing lists.
This will cut down on your marketing and advertising costs. You may also try bartering goods and
services with them.

3. Wholesale/Bulk You'll save money buying your business supplies in bulk quantities. You could get a
membership at a wholesale warehouse or buy them through a mail order wholesaler. Buy the supplies
you are always running out of.

4. Free Stuff You should try visiting the thousands of freebie sites on the internet before buying your
business supplies. You can find free software, graphics, backgrounds, online business services etc.

5. Borrow/Rent Have you ever purchased business equipment you only needed for a small period of
time? You could have just borrowed the equipment from someone else or rented the equipment from a
"rent-all" store.

6. Online/Offline Auctions You can find lower prices on business supplies and equipment at online and
offline auctions. I'm not saying all the time, but before you go pay retail for these items try bidding on
them first.

7. Plan Ahead Make a list of business supplies or equipment you'll need in the future. Keep an eye out
for stores that have big sales. Purchase the supplies when they go on sale before you need them.

8. Used Stuff If your business equipment and supplies don't need to be new, buy them used. You can

find used items at yard and garage sales, used stores, used stuff for sale message boards and
newsgroups etc.

9. Negotiate You should always try negotiate a lower price for any business equipment or supplies. It
doesn't hurt to try. Pretend you are talking to a salesman at a car lot.

10. Search You can always be searching for new suppliers for your business supplies and equipment.
Look for suppliers with lower prices and better quality. Don't just be satisfied with a few.

7 Ways To Reduce Small Business Insurance Costs
By Matthew Pawlina

Insurance is a part of business expenditure. Insurance play a significant role when the business is an
at home enterprise or small business and, insurance premiums can increase by as much as 30% in a
year.

Every small business owner needs insurance to protect his or her interests. The internet is a valuable
resource that will serve as a guide to business owners and help them determine their insurance needs
and ways in which to get the most comprehensive small business insurance coverage. As a small
business owner it is important to make informed decisions about business insurance.

Instead of struggling to pay business insurance premiums you need to find ways to reduce intelligently
your business insurance costs.

1. Educate yourself on aspects of business insurance and study your coverage to determine where you
can make savings. Think about aspects like higher deductibles or umbrella insurance coverage.

2. Many professional organizations and associations strike deals with insurance companies for group
rates. Find out whether the Chamber of Commerce or other organization of which you have a
membership has insurance plans on offer at competitive rates. Determine costs of membership of such
organizations against benefits on insurance and other business related aspects.

3. Study your business organization and find out ways in which you could reduce insurance costs.
Often simple methods like regular machinery maintenance, installation of alarm /security systems,
enrolling fleet drivers in defensive driving courses and so on can reduce your insurance liability.

4. Know what insurers consider as risks in your line of business and find ways to reduce/eliminate
risks. Business insurance premiums are based on risk calculations among other aspects.

5. Study insurance norms and find out how business liability premiums are calculated. Often changing
the location of your business or warehouse can reduce premiums.

6. Buy small business insurance from reliable insurance companies by doing a comparison of costs
and products. Online insurance websites have tools that provide multiple quotes and enable
instantaneous comparison of business insurance costs and coverage.

7. Check with the insurance company about business insurance packages. Many leaders in the field
offer a business insurance policy that combines property, liability, loss of income, records insurance
policies, business vehicle insurance and more.

Before insuring your business check your options with organizations like the Better Business Bureau
and SOHO which offer business insurance discounts. Also check what the laws are regarding business
insurance. In case of doubt, check out options with an insurance agent.

Every small business owner will need: property insurance; contents insurance; liability insurance and
employee benefit plans; disability insurance; business interruption insurance, buy-sell insurance; and
