By Matthew Deutsch


In this article, we will discuss the development of an Auto Inspection Service SWOT analysis, its development, and how it can be used to acquire financing from a bank or investor. Auto Inspection Service generally are able to remain profitable and cash flow positive in any economic climate due to the fact that they are able to render a service that is in constant demand among the general public. One of the best aspects of Auto Inspection Service is that they are able to generate highly gross margins from their services. A well written Auto Inspection Service SWOT analysis will feature a strengths section, a weaknesses section, and opportunities discussion, and a threats discussion.

First, you're going to want to focus specifically on the strength of your Auto Inspection Service. Here, you're going to want to reiterate the continuous demand for your services on a year round basis as it pertains to your customers. As such, you will be able to have a very profitable business very quickly if you were able to have your Auto Inspection Service generate customers very quickly.

Very commonly within this section of the SWOT analysis, you will want to discuss your abilities as an entrepreneur, your experience as a mechanic, your ability to run the business on a day to day basis, and how you will be able to repay your loan as you continue through your business operations.

The next section of the Auto Inspection Service SWOT analysis focuses significantly on the weaknesses that are associated with this type of business. Foremost, you should heavily discuss the fact that there are many other types of businesses that operate in a similar capacity to your Auto Inspection Service. You may also want to discuss the relatively high start up costs that are associated with an Auto Inspection Service.

Third, you are going to want to focus significantly on the opportunities that are associated with your Auto Inspection Service. As discussed above, you will have the ability to immediately generate a significant client base that will provide you with highly predictable streams of revenue on an ongoing basis. If you are to receive a SBA loan then it is extremely important that you focus on this aspect of your business plan and SWOT analysis.

Finally, you are going to want to effectively showcase to your SBA loan banker or investor the threats that will be faced by your Auto Inspection Service. We strongly recommend that you emphasize a number of these issues as it will be to the benefit of your investor or banker to see how you intend to mitigate these risks as time progresses.

On a final note, you are always going to want to seek proper advice from a number of different sources. Most importantly, you should have an initial discussion with your CPA, lawyer, and financial adviser as it relates to your ability to raise capital from a SBA lending bank, a conventional business loan, an equity investor, or other type of funding source.
