How To Successfully Get Into Business By Buying A Good Business - With Almost No Money Down



Did you know that now may be the easiest time ever to create exactly what you want? Why? Because the economy seems to be spinning out of control, and baby-boomers are at a particular stage in their lives. Let me explain…

Most people don’t know this but the fact is that you can achieve financial and time freedom easier, faster and safer by buying rather than starting a business.

There are two things that you should be aware of if you wish to financially liberate yourself and your family practically, fast, effectively, powerfully and safely - with almost no money down…

Fact #1: Did you know that your fastest, safest, and possibly easiest vehicle to securing your financial and time freedom is, paradoxically, buying a business? It is not, for most people, starting a business. It is not saving. It is not investing in real estate or shares. And it is not working hard at your job. All these things have their place in life, and I am not saying that you should not consider or participate in them. By all means, they are good and have their place. But recognize what their place is. So why is this fact so? Hang on a minute please. Let us look at fact number two first.

Fact #2: Did you also know that this is the best time, in the history of the world, to buy a business? Why?

Allow me to explain both positions.

First of all, why is buying a business better, in many ways, than starting one?

Well, the advantages of buying over starting are that:

- Purchase price/terms are negotiable and can be fixed. When you are buying a business of any size, you get a ready, running package that you can see and touch, that is operational, and you can negotiate the terms and know upfront how much it will take to get into it. Starting, on the other hand, is not so predictable, and things often don’t go according to plan.

- Funding options widen when you are buying. Whereas it is difficult to get bank loans and investors for new start ups that are just an idea, it is relatively easy to get bank loans and investors for businesses that are already running and have customers, suppliers, products and so on, all already manifest and provable.

- Cash flow from day one. When you buy, you are buying a ready package with cash flow. And cash flow is like blood to a business. You cannot do without it.

- Less risky. Again, from the fact that the business is already running and proven. Whereas 75% of start-ups fail within the first 5 years, 75% of franchises, for example, succeed. Businesses that are already operational are somewhat like franchises. The tables are turned. Sure, you get more flexibility with a start-up, but you get more surety with a business that is already running.

- You can flip it soon after buying. Just like a house, you buy, renovate it, and sell it at a higher price.

- Best of all, you can buy it for almost no money down. How? Just a minute, we will get into that shortly.

Second question. Why is this the best time, in the history of the world, to buy a business?

Because of two factors:

- A once-in-a-lifetime global asset fire sale. Because of the state of the financial world right now, almost all assets are cheaper. Way cheaper. So now you can negotiate a very good price whereby you build profit into the purchase price.

- A once-in a lifetime baby-boomer generation's business sale. Many people are approaching retirement and wish to offload their business. These are the baby-boomer generation. They were the first major group to get into the start up business movement. And now they wish to sell. For all sorts of reasons. Some are just tired and just wish to get rid of it and will give you great terms on their businesses. Some did not organize their business well enough and cannot compete without making the kind of changes (such as technology) that you may be able to make. Some just want to realize their retirement. Whatever the reason, today there are more businesses for sale than there are buyers of businesses. It is a buyers market.

This brings us to the best part. How can you possibly buy a business for no money down? Well, because of the global financial state, the over-supply of businesses for sale (even on eBay only, you will find tons, everything from small websites to large concerns), and the fact that baby-boomers desperately want to sell, you can easily get seller financing. Here is one way you can get a business for almost no money down. You simply let the owner understand that you will be able to pay them using the revenues of the business. So in effect, you will buy their business. But instead of paying cash for it, the owner will keep title of various assets in the business, and maybe even title to your car or other assets. As security. And then over the course of the year, you will pay them an agreed sum monthly, until the full price is paid, and then the title to the assets will revert to you. If you fail to pay, the owner gets back the business. But if you do your homework well, and arrange the deal well, you will easily get the money to pay the owner from the very business you bought. This sounds unbelievable, but veterans in business know that in many areas and industries about 70% of businesses are bought and sold this way. You can do this. I will show you how here:
