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.

A business parable about how to create a start-up that won't trap you when you want to sell it. According to John Warrillow, the number one mistake entrepreneurs make is to build a business that relies too heavily on them. Thus, when the time comes to sell, buyers aren't confident that the company-even if it's profitable-can stand on its own. To illustrate this, Warrillow introduces us to a fictional small business owner named Alex who is struggling to sell his advertising agency.

Dan Sullivan, the world's leading coach for highly successful entrepreneurs, wants you to know that achieving 10X growth is exponentially easier than striving for 2X growth. Most find this idea confusing at first because simply imagining 10X growth causes them to think they need to do 10X more work to achieve it. However, being a 10X entrepreneur is nothing like what most people think.
