How to Find the Right Business for You
The First Step
Knowing the right business for you is the first thing to do when looking to buy a business. This knowledge should be early in the game, before you have spent hours and hours of research looking at hundreds of businesses. Without an advisor, you might only find out what is not true or that business is not for you.
The Common Problem
It is very common to spend months looking for the perfect cash flow business. But when you find it, you realize that there are problems. You never took the time to think about, “What type of business it is or how difficult it will be for you to run it.” You should research the different industries first. Only then look at businesses in your industry of choice. Doing this, you would have a much better chance of finding the right business.
The Right Step
The business that works best for you is not what works best for the next person. Picking a business should not be based on what is available for sale. It should be based on what you have the taste and talent for. We can help you with deciding where your talents will be best put to use. This educational service is divided into three parts.
One: You take a test and fill out a questionnaire about your experience, education and available financial resources.
Two: An experienced staff member will evaluate the test and have a phone interview with you. He will go over the information you submitted and what it means in your search for the perfect business.
Three: You will have an education from an experienced business consultant about the industry(ies) you have chosen. This discussion will tell you;
- The dangers you should look out for.
- What are the good attributes of each industry?
- What knowledge you must have or acquire to succeed in your chosen industry(ies).
You will find out where the bodies are buried in your chosen field and not buy into anything that would be a mistake.
When you are done with this program, you will
- Have a very good idea of what types of businesses you are interested in.
- What you are definitely not interested in.
- What information you need to collect to find the right business.
