BUSINESS BROKERS WANTED

We have openings for Business Brokers all over the mid-atlantic region. You do not need a real estate license to sell businesses, nor are there any other regulatory requirements placed on Business Brokers. If you have never bought or sold a business before we can teach you how the entire process works from start to finish and have you up and running in a very short time. This is a great second career type of job, you get to work at your own pace, you are your own boss.

LISTING FINDERS WANTED

Not sure whether or not you want to jump into the whole Business Broker thing just yet but still want to make some great money? If so, you can start out as a LISTING FINDER. LF’s work 2-3 hours a day, 2-3 days a week out in the field placing business cards on the doors of businesses in areas around their city/home. Business owners will find those cards and call the finder to ask questions about selling ther business.

Back a few months ago my wife and I were invited to join approximately 600 other top producing real estate agents with Long & Foster Real Estate, Inc. for a Roman Holiday. In over 30 years of being involved in sales events and organizations, from small outfits to worldwide organizations like KPMG, LLP, I have never seen such a high quality, motivated, dedicated group of sales professionals. I truly admire what L&F has created and strongly feel they are without a doubt the finest sales organization I have ever had the privelege of being associated with. Pasted above you will see a picture of me and Mr. Wes Foster himself in Rome.

Much to my surprise, I received the below information in a press release from the Office of Advocacy of the Small Business Administration. I am not one to get too excited too quickly about anything that the SBA does but maybe, just maybe, this program will actualy help some entrepreneurial spirited AMERICANS start businesses. I get very angry when I hear we are shipping huge amounts of money overseas to help entrepreneurs in other countries when our own AMERICAN entrepreneurs have so much trouble getting help to start businesses.

I’m going to look into this progran a little more and reserve my fonal judgement until such time I see a real incidence of it working.

Just like selling a home, when you put your business up for sale you MUST stage the business. Staging a business requires you think about those things that a potential buyer would be concerned about and be prepared to take some action(s) to ensure you meet those issues head on. For example, when we receive an inquiry from a prospective buyer for a specific business we have advertised, they almost always want to know if we have the last two or three years of financial records for the business. The reason for this is simple, our buyers are usually buying a business to work themselves and need to have a certain income level to make the purchase make sense.

In his recently published book titled: “11 Secrets To Selling YOur Business – Harvest The Profits From Your Business Sale” Greg Caruso goes into detail explaining many of the things one should know to sell their business for the most money to the best buyer as quick as possible. Check out this quote for the book:

In simple terms, the value of the business is the sum of all the benefits that accrue to the owner during and after ownership.
