How to Eliminate Credit Card Debt Debt Without Bankruptcy screw up so they can be sued. You will find a lot of ingenious tricks and traps can be devised to make them goof it up and lose their collection efforts and their cases against you.Bankruptcy is an option for people who have acquired a lot of debt. While bankruptcy may eliminate your debt legally, it is extremely damaging to your credit rating. If you file bankruptcy, expect to pay higher interest rates on credit cards, vehicle loans, home loans, etc. However, this can be avoided. Here are a few tips to help you reduce your debt without bankruptcy.Improve Bad Credit and Reduce Credit Card DebtIf you are hoping to improve your credit rating without bankruptcy - be patient. This may be a long process, especially if you have bad credit. Many people who file bankruptcy have a decent credit rating. The problem lies in the inability to repay large credit card and medical bills. However, there are ways to reduce debt over time.Begin by paying more than the minimum balance. If possible, pay double and triple the minimum payments. Financially, some people are unable to pay larger monthly payments. Getting a second job is a great alternative. The extra money from your employment can be used to pay your bills.If you have bad credit, begin improving debt by maintaining a current standing with your creditors. This involves paying monthly minimums on time. Do not pay creditors late. This harms your credit report. Additionally, avoid missed payments. If you maintain regular payments, your score will improve, and then you can begin paying more than the monthly minimums.Eliminate Debt with Home Equity LoanIf you own a home, you have more options for eliminating debt without bankruptcy.

Reference accounts are the most believed and trusted form of marketing. Let your happy clients do your selling for you.When your firm is brand new, I encourage you to give away your product or service if that is what it takes to get a strong reference account. Consider doing business “pro bono” as my lawyer friends call it. Give it away and service the heck out of them in exchange for a good reference.If your existing clients are happy, ask them to write it down or ask them for permission to have a prospect call them. Most of the time they will be glad to help out. If they say no, they will be complimented that you asked.Peer references resonate because prospects find them believable. Meanwhile, the prospect is disinclined to believe the sales rep, even though the rep may truly be expert on the subject and may know far more than the buyer. This also explains why advertising is such an inefficient tool: it is obviously paid for by the sponsoring firm and is not believable. Likewise, the buyer knows that the rep is paid to sell. References provide a work-around for this trust problem.By the way, the venture capital community figured out about reference accounts a long time ago. They frequently build portfolios of firms that sell to each other and act as reference accounts for each other. A little incestuous you proclaim?
