[Here is your sneak peek inside the book
STARTING A TRUCKING BUSINESS.]
For many of us, the thought of interviewing
a banker sends shivers up our spine. But it need not.
When you've got the right fit, your banker is one of your strongest
allies. Honest: the bank WANTS you to succeed. The
more thriving businesses there are in the community, the better.
Here are some questions that we have found
helpful in interviewing new bankers. Take your pick, or use
them all -- it is up to you.
[Excerpt from STARTING A TRUCKING BUSINESS]
How long have you been with the bank?
(Usually longer is better. He has more connections with longevity.)
Where were you prior to this bank?
(Does he come from big business or from small business?)
What made you choose this bank?
(Listen for clues on what programs the bank has, what its attitude is,
etc.)
What size company does the bank prefer
working with?
What industry(ies) does the bank
prefer working with?
Do you have any special expertise in
that size and/or industry?
What community projects is the bank
involved in?
Does the bank handle SBA guaranteed
loans? (If not, this may not be the bank for you, no matter what else he
says.)
Does your bank sponsor investor fairs
with venture capital and/or angel investors?
What industry reports do you rely on?
BizMiner? Robert Morris? Is it possible for me to get a copy of the
industry report for my industry? (You probably won’t be able to get a
copy of their information, but see how he responds to the question.)
What tools do you have to help
businesses get started?
Do you sponsor any type of business
seminars?
Could you recommend any accountants or
attorneys that I might work with?
Who actually makes the decision on
business loans, you or someone else? If it is someone else, will I have
the opportunity to meet this person?

Stink, my
cousin, offered to sell his trucking business to my husband and
me. I didn't know if it was going to work, and I didn't
even know where to start. My husband really wanted to do
it. He was pretty tired of his sales job. But I just
didn't know. After adding up all the figures in your book, we
got the answers we needed. It really was worth the time
and effort.

I'm
not a book person so I am glad you didn't write any more.
But the workbook worked good.

I
thought the web site thing was a screwy idea, but my wife
says there are thousands of trucker wives that would like to
communicate. Who would a' figured?
Billy Brigande
Mt. Prospect, ILL
I
wasn't too wild about meeting with an accountant, but she
was really helpful. She gave me the names of leasing
companies and insurance companies and even told me how long
I would have to wait before I got paid. I am going to hire
her.
