Chinese buyers submit business plan for Saab

2011-11-23T02:50:00.001-08:00

Broke the previous Swedish carmaker Saab is to receive hundreds of
millions of euros by 2014 and thus make a profit. This emerges from a
business plan submitted to the Chinese buyer of the company. The
District Court Vänersborg submitted the paper will now be presented to
creditors of the bankrupt company. Reject them from the business plan,
the bankruptcy protection is probably lifted and smashed Saab.

The Chinese automaker Youngman and auto wholesalers Pang had since
submitted a letter of intent on Friday, according to which they want
to take over Saab for 100 million euros from the current owners
Swedish automobiles. Over the next two years, the investors want their
business plan, put 610 million euros in the carmaker. Immediately
should therefore flow € 50 million, also a loan from the European
Investment Bank in the amount of 63 million €.

The stagnant since a half year production at Saab to the ideas of Pang
Da and Young Man, according to start next year. First, the investors
want to build then a year 35000-55000 cars, by 2016 it will be 200 000
cars per year. The Saab's main plant in Trollhattan is to be retained
according to business plan, but will also build cars in China. The
People's Republic will also be the most important market for Saab, a
third of the investors want to sell cars there.

But according to Saab's business plan also cuts to come: Of the 3,700
jobs will be eliminated 500 jobs. In addition to one billion kroner
(111 million €) can be saved. No information made to investors about
how Saab will repay its debt: The automaker has in claims to about 220
million € Schools suppliers.

The Dutch sports car maker Spyker had bought Saab 2010, he later
changed its name to Swedish automobiles. It was not the buyer to turn
the control to Saab: In the spring the first time, manufacturers had
to stop production because suppliers are not delivered because of
outstanding invoices. Since June, the bands are definitely still in
Trollhattan.

With security to jump start your business

2010-08-14T04:37:00.001-07:00

Founders should only go to the bank, if the business does work and they are informed of funding. A guarantee may be required.
For Maja Halver it was in June so far: The Hamburg opened her own business. Ajax Loktechnik repairs and maintains diesel locomotives repaired. The technical knowledge and the necessary professional experience brought Halver. And tips for establishing she got from the Chamber of Hamburg and a former colleague who offers a similar service for electric locomotives.
The funding agencies for the subsidy funds for start-founder
The only obstacle: Halver required € 700 000 for spare parts, tools and service vehicles to drive with the technician to their customers. So they sent in January, a business plan to several banks in the Hanseatic city, to be assisted in the search for subsidized loans. Some banks did not respond. Others passed on outdated information. And for some, the founder fill only a thick stack of documents. "Not exactly the feedback that I had hoped," said Halver. "I quickly realized, is the bank with which start-up financing to the daily business and not for what."
Interest of the banks hold are often limited
As the Hamburg is how many founders. They expect help from banks, but their interest stops often limited. This is usually not an evil will, but banks have good reasons: the risks of establishing a business are difficult to predict. In addition, frequently lack collateral. Furthermore: What is the type of funding is appropriate at all, is usually initially open. Basically there are three possibilities: a loan from the bank, a subsidized credit as a state bank KfW and grants from federal, state and other institutions. Subsidised loans banks often conduct further only and hardly deserve it. "Many banks only see the effort," said Stefanie Pump, director of the incubator of the Hamburger Sparkasse (Haspa).
Realistic approach crucial
Founder must therefore be very convincing, to gain support from the bank. "The founders must be able to sell his idea," she says. For the business banking advisors take a closer look at. Many banks want to see the plans before the first appointment to have sufficient time for the test. "The concept must be realistic," said Pump. Above all other aspects of the credit rating is crucial to the question of whether the founder and Bank do business. "We reject those who have a long Schufa register or earlier could not handle money," she explains.
"Preparation is everything if you want to get money," says Michael Wundt, who advises his company Wabeco subsidy entrepreneur guides is about funding. "The mission of the founder is to improve his chances, as he clearly explains his business idea or already knows the possible grants and their conditions."
Before going to the bank is an important good preparation before going to the bank is a good preparation important
Who can not produce collateral for a loan, should obtain before going to the bank a guarantee. "Young entrepreneurs often have no assets and can offer no guarantees," says Stephan Jansen, managing director of the Association of German Guarantee Banks (VDB). The guarantee banks of the countries take up to 80 percent risk of default on loans. The warranty cost start-ups annually one percent of the loan.
For founders, the program is no guarantee Bank (BoB) is particularly interesting. Check guarantee banks without the intervention of a bank's business plan. "At best, the founder of a security can already go to the bank," said Jansen. Otherwise, they learned from the rejection, where they have to rework. "You get so an initial check without the bank must know about it," says Wundt.
Information on subsidies
He warns: "There are thousands of different funding opportunities, and not always the path goes through a bank." Banks often help only when the founder really need a loan. To prepare just belong also to inform themselves in advance on support programs. The 1000 guidelines and nearly 3,000 programs with increasingly difficult for new application dates, call dates and changes to search for the best deal. Help provide the support database of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology on the Internet. "To get an overview of all the founders funding pots," says Wundt.

More to banks
For entrepreneur Halver, the preparation has paid off. The bulk of the required 700,000 euros it has financed from grants, which has combined its bank. Halver was capital of the holding company of Hamburg, a guarantee of the security community of Hamburg and a KfW Entrepreneur Loan. Furthermore, the EU funded their creation. "Loans would be too expensive, and would in any other form of participation to short-term goals such as private equity stood in the forefront," she says. And her concept seems to be: "The first potential customers have already shown interest."

small business incubator

2010-08-08T07:24:00.001-07:00

Many incubators have been pivotal in nourishing small businesses to the point where they can make it on their own. But observers note that the programs are not foolproof.
Some small businesses fail despite their membership in such programs; incubators themselves sometimes fold, crippled by any number of factors. Entrepreneurs, then, need to recognize that some incubators are better suited to meet their needs than others. Considerations to weigh when choosing an incubator include the following:
• Is It a True Incubator?—Some office building owners falsely advertise themselves as incubators in order to lure tenants. Entrepreneurs need to study the details of each offer to determine whether such claims are legitimate.
• Length of Operation—Incubators take some time to establish their reputation in an area unless they are sponsored by a very high-profile corporation or a well-funded government agency.
• Incubator Leadership—Many analysts contend that entrepreneurs can learn a great deal about the fundamental quality of an incubator program simply by studying the program's leadership. Is the incubator managed by people with backgrounds in business, or by general college or agency administrators? Can the managers provide long-term business plans that show how they intend to guide the incubator to financial independence?
• Location—Does the incubator's setting adequately address your fledgling company's needs in terms of target market, transportation, competition, and future growth plans?
• Financing—Is the incubator's financial base a reliable one, or is it on shaky ground? Entrepreneurs interested in exploring the incubator concept can request information from several sources, including the Small Business Administration, area economic development agencies, area educational institutions, or the National Business Incubation Association. Would-be small business owners should have a completebusiness plan in hand before applying for entrance into an incubator program. Most incubators maintain a stringent screening process to ensure that their resources
are put to the best possible use.

Anatomy of a Business Plan
2010-08-03T09:54:00.000-07:00


Written business plans are as varied as the companies that compile them. Some plans run almost 100 pages, whereas others barely fill a few sheets. Some plans start with executive summaries, and others plunge right into detailed descriptions of products and services. Some companies print their business plans on paper, and some publish their plans exclusively on the Web. Some plans include page after page of financial projections, and others list only anticipated costs, expected revenues, and projected profits.





Every business plan is written for a different reason and to obtain a different outcome. Still, some plans are better than others. The following information helps you write a plan that will win high marks.

Defining your business-planning situation
2010-08-03T09:52:00.000-07:00


To get your business where you want it to go, you need a map to follow, which is what your business plan is all about. It starts with a description of your current situation; describes your future plans; defines your opportunities; and details the financial plan, operational, marketing, and organizational strategies you’ll follow to achieve success. And what market research needs to be done.

Imagine that your company is a ship about to set sail on an ocean voyage. Your business plan defines your destination and the route that you’ll follow. It details the supplies and crew you have on board as well as what you still need to acquire. It forecasts the cost of the voyage. It describes the weather and sea conditions you’re likely to encounter along the way and anticipates the potential dangers that may lurk over the horizon. Finally, your business plan identifies other ships that may be attempting to beat you to your destination.

The same kind of planning is necessary back on dry land. To navigate a new course for your company, you need to start with an assessment of where your business is right now. You may be putting your business together for the first time. Or your business start up may be up and running but facing new challenges.

Or perhaps your business is doing well and about to launch a new product or service. Once you assess your current situation, you need to define where you want to arrive and what strategies you’ll follow to get there.

Planning for a start-up

A start-up company begins with a new idea and high hopes. A business plan helps these new ventures evaluate their new idea, potential market, and competition. The critical questions that a business plan for a start-up must address are

- Does this new venture have a good chance of getting off the ground?

- How much money will the business need to get up and running?

- Who are our customers, and what’s the best way to reach them?

- Who are our competitors, and what’s the best way to outrun them?

- Why will customers choose our new product or service instead of our competitors’?

Groups giving students head start in business
By LaTina Emerson Staff Writer 
Their days start early, and their schedules are filled with meetings, financial budgets and business plans. These are not high-powered executives, though; they're high school students with an intuition for business. Students throughout the Augusta-Aiken area are taking a leap into the business world through entrepreneurial ventures such as student-operated stores, credit unions and T-shirt sales.
They are learning the rigors of operating a successful business and gaining invaluable exposure to the field, all before they enter college.... In last year's entrepreneurship event at the state FBLA competition, students throughout Georgia made mulimedia presentations on products they developed, complete with business plans. They were also required to dress in professional attire, Ms. Barnes said....
