Acerca de esta escucha
Want to break free of the shackles of your employee life? Want to control your own destiny and set your own hours, priorities and life direction? Simple, become an entrepreneur and start a business!
Don't like the risk of starting and want to buy a successful business instead? Okay, just don't do these stupid mistakes that I see novice business buyers make over and over and over again.
Every day thousands of really awful businesses go up for sale, and thousands of good businesses go up for sale with outrageously inflated asking prices. Many of these businesses will sell to people who simply have no idea what they're getting into and don't know how to get the right guidance or advice. Invest some time and learn from the mistakes that I've observed through my years as a business broker and private sale transaction adviser. You really can learn from other peoples' mistakes and make yourself a better deal; or know when to go home and leave your money in the bank.

You make your money when you buy! That's right, the biggest opportunity to make profits buying businesses or traffic assets is to buy them with the least possible amount of your own personal cash out of pocket. A lot of people think that the most successful deals happen when you sell, but if you can acquire businesses or traffic assets with $0 out of your own pocket, your returns can be almost infinite.

Real estate investors used to build wealth the hard way: slowly saving money and sacrificing their current happiness for a future reward. This method produces results in the long run but what if there's a better, more efficient way that works in years instead of decades? Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat (BRRRR) is the five-part real estate investing strategy that makes financial freedom more attainable than ever: You buy a property under market value, add value with renovations, rent it out to tenants, complete a cash-out refinance, and then use that money to do it all over again.

After the savings, mortgages, term loans, vendor financing, lines of credit, and even credit cards have been applied there sometimes remains a 'gap' in the money required to buy a successful business. David C Barnett has spent years helping people buy and sell businesses as both a business broker and private transaction advisor. In his years of experience, he has had to bridge that gap several times using broker loans. Business brokers are not in the normal business of lending money. How does one convince a broker that this is the right thing to do?

Ever felt the thrill of a brilliant business idea only to slam into the brick wall of risk and uncertainty? You're not alone. Even giants like Elon Musk and Warren Buffett faced the same daunting question at some point: "Is it worth the risk?" The old business model would have you jump through hoops of fire, risk losing money and time, often only to hit a dead end. But those days are gone. Today, the smartest business owners on the planet know that financial growth doesn't have to be a roll of the dice. Are you ready to step into this new paradigm?

Every salesperson must endure many NOs in order to get to YES. Objections don't care or consider: who you are, what you sell, how you sell, or if you are new to sales or a veteran. For as long as salespeople have been asking buyers to make commitments, buyers have been throwing out objections. And, for as long as buyers have been saying no, salespeople have yearned for the secrets to getting past those NOs. Objections is a comprehensive and contemporary guide that engages your heart and mind.

Everyone wants ownership, but almost no one gets it. Whether we’re talking about the start-up game, the crypto game, the freelance game, or the lemonade stand game—most paths to ownership lead to dead ends. That’s why Codie Sanchez carved a new, smarter path to total freedom. In Main Street Millionaire, she reveals the method she teaches her community of seven-figure investors for building wealth by creating a portfolio of boring businesses. That’s right—the money is not in flashy startups or in the corner office.

Everyone wants ownership, but almost no one gets it. Whether we’re talking about the start-up game, the crypto game, the freelance game, or the lemonade stand game—most paths to ownership lead to dead ends. That’s why Codie Sanchez carved a new, smarter path to total freedom. In Main Street Millionaire, she reveals the method she teaches her community of seven-figure investors for building wealth by creating a portfolio of boring businesses.
