Reduce Wasteful Spending

During a recession, it is vital for small businesses to reduce spending. The cost of inventory and raw materials should be analyzed to determine whether more cost-effective alternatives are available. Staff duties and responsibilities need to be looked at to identify whether job cuts are an option. Day-to-day costs such as leases, utilities and office expenses should be scrutinized. If a small business is going to survive a recession, all wasteful spending must be eliminated.
