So, do you dream to going to the Dragon’s Den or Shark Tank to get some billionaire to put money into your business?
For most everyday people, it may be possible to sell stock in their company or as part of financing a business acquisition, but it won’t be like what you see on TV.
I’ve seen lots of people bring on new shareholders or equity financial partners to do a deal.
What makes real Main St. deals different from what you see on TV is the motivation and expectation of the investor.

So complicated

@DavidCBarnett Год назад

You need to really be into this stuff, I think, to pull it off well.

Thanks David for outlinging the subject in such a logical and sensible format. I'm interested to know what you suggest a business owner can do to lower risk in their business to improve the perceived risk return ratio considered by potential investors?..

Funny thing.. The GF and I were discussing that just the other day. I've added it to my question list. Be sure to subscribe and look for it in a week or two. Thanks for watching. Don't miss anything by going to www.DavidCBarnett.com and signing up for my email list.

You talk about stock. If i buy a small business & have a financial partner, i would need another way to seal the deal with the financial partner. Would like to your thoughts. Thanks for all buying a business information. It really is priceless.

Hello David, I understand that your courses are for educational purposes but, is it good for a guy like me who has no money, to study your online courses? I’ve seen your “No Money” type of videos, the 3 part series videos. After watching those, I feel like I need to have sufficient savings in order to play the game. If your course talks about raising capital, that gives me more to work with.

The course at BusinessBuyerAdvantage.com teaches how to find, analyze, make offers and finance a business purchase. If you have no money and are trying to buy a business, the course will still be helpful in showing you how to put a deal together. The truth is that most people need far less money than they think to buy a business. Also, If you're a good manager and hard worker, there is the opportunity to use the techniques in the course to structure a deal to buy a business out over time while the seller is still participating. Raising money from strangers and banks is hard. Working for someone and getting to know them, then buying into the business and eventually taking over is an easier path if you can find the right seller who will work with you. The bonus to you is you don't need as much money and the bonus to them is they end up with more than a straight sale in most cases. In the meantime, get your expenses down and start putting money away.

David Barnett Fair enough. That’s a solid recommendation. In one way, do you mean, I could find a seller to work for as part of the “training period,” training to take over the business and possibly, he may or can stay on after the “transaction” to serve as a consultant? He could be a consultant on a very part time basis and still be getting paid over the course of time. Does this give somewhat of a hint of what you speak of?

@DavidCBarnett 6 лет назад

No, I mean you work there and learn the business and get paid. Then you buy some shares in the company and each year with the profits and resulting dividends you buy more and more of the seller's shares until you have a good chunk. You then go borrow at the bank and buy the balance. Or he finances the balance. The point is you get experience in running the business and get to build a relationship with the seller. It's an internal succession plan but sometimes business owners don't have an internal candidate. You find a business and structure a deal to be that candidate.

David Barnett Oh, I see.

Soooo good.

Equity doesn't have a demand on cash flow? What does that mean? Some tables and illustrations would be helpful.

@DavidCBarnett 4 года назад

Yeah. If you own shares in a business and there are no profits then they don't have to pay you anything. It's only when there is truly 'surplus' cash that most businesses issue a dividend. That's what makes it different from a loan. A loan has a payment which needs to be made regardless of whether there is a profit or not.
