How To Buy And Run
Your Own Multimillion Dollar Business Immediately–
"With No Money, Credit, Banks Or Experience”
|
Welcome to another insightful two-part
interview with business-buying expert Art Hamel. In these audios, Art
concentrates on how you can buy a business with investor money. This
isn’t something that he just thought up. All of the content you are
about to hear is based on Art’s actual experience for over twenty-five
years.
You'll hear questions and Answers from my students about buying
businesses.
When you buy a business using investor money, there are some great
advantages. First of all, you pay for your business entirely by cash!
That gives you an advantage over other buyers. The other important
aspect is that most investors don’t expect you to pay them some kind of
a return every month or quarter. They will ride with you for five years
or more until they expect their return. That means that you get to use
all of that investor money for the entire investment term!
You will also hear Art’s opinions on business brokers and how to know a
good one, how to value a business, buying businesses which fit into a
consumer buying cycle such as businesses that fit well with baby
boomers, how to protect yourself from overpaying for a business, and
much, much more!
Near the end of this Q & A session you’ll hear Art’s anecdotes
about how he got into the seminar business in the early 1970s, how he
started teaching marketing and business-buying sessions that were both
IRS and IBM approved, and how his one-hour infomercial on a shopping
network made him such a recognized personality wherever he went.
BONUS! I have added an audio clip on how you can qualify to work with
Art to buy a business with investor financing. Art has about fifty
years of business experience and more than twenty-five years of
business-buying and seminar experience. His track record is so great
that people (buyers, sellers and investors) listen to him!
Art can help to make sure that your homework is done. He can ensure
that everything is in place and that all of the paperwork is completed
to a status of excellence. He can ensure that you have a “million
dollar” business plan to present – one that will leave no stone
unturned for any investor.
He discusses how his fee structure works and what investors really want
out of the deal. He tells you what he requires from you to develop the
business plan, what types of businesses that investors like to invest
in, and those types of business that they don’t like to invest in.
In short, working with Art Hamel personally to buy your business takes
the guesswork out of what you need and what needs to be done. With his
track record of success, you are almost guaranteed success.
Press the green play button and make sure you have your speakers
plugged in with the volume up. Then just sit back and listen. This is
some of the most sought-after information in the world. So be sure to
print the transcripts and read them over and over.

Insider Business Secrets
Of An Art Hamel-Trained Millionaire
|
Over 30 years ago a guy named Frank went to
one of Art Hamel's business buying seminars. Today, he's purchased over
60 businesses and is a multi-millionaire.
I recently talked with Frank and he revealed
some absolutely fascinating insider information on buying, running and
owning businesses you'll never hear anywhere else.
Even if you don't want to buy a million dollar
business you can learn some valuable money-making secrets from Frank --
including his mindset and the way he strategizes and approaches big
money deals.
Plus, while Art teaches you how to buy
multi-million dollar businesses that "run themselves" (so you rarely
have to show up) Frank is the opposite. He likes getting in there and
solving problems and growing businesses. And so you will hear things
from a slightly different perspective to further round your business
education and put more money in your pocket no matter what business
you're in now.

Why You
Could Be Sitting On A Million Dollars (Or More)...And Not Even Know It
|
|
I normally don't do this, but I have decided
to take the "pricing" section of Art Hamel's business-buying system and
make it freely available to the public.
Why?
Because this section literally applies to everyone and anyone who
currently owns a business or plans to start one some day -- even if
it's a "kitchen table" business or small operation.
You see, once you learn Art's simple formula for pricing
businesses...you'll know exactly how much yours is worth, and it may be
worth more than you think.
And even if your business isn't worth a lot of money now, you'll see
how to make it valuable to buyers and be able to add whatever amount of
value you want to it. In some cases, you may only have to make a few
little "tweaks" and adjustments...and sell it for enough money to
retire.
Art's formula is so precise and accurate...people have been trying to
steal it as their own so they can teach it for years. And until now,
the only way you could learn these pricing secrets was by attending Art
Hamel's high-priced business-buying seminars or buying his course.
Are you sitting on a million dollars?
Find out in this incredible audio seminar. You may be sitting on a
goldmine and not even know it.

to.

Why Even IRS Agents
And Small Business Administration Officials Attended Art's
Business-Buying Seminars!
This
was my first 58-minute conversation with Mr. Arthur Hamel, recorded on
May 23, 2002.
Art may be the the world's single best expert on successfully buying
businesses.
I met him through an eBay ad he was selling his system through, called
him up, turned on the tape recorder and captured
every fascinating minute of our conversation. This recording will
probably
shock the life out of you - as it says "Bull" to almost everything the "mainstream"
business teachers and "experts" you see on TV have ever said about
buying businesses. Tens of thousands of people - including IRS
agents and Small Business Administration officials who were made to go
in order to be promoted - would flock
to his national seminars, sometimes dropping a couple thousand dollars
just
to make it. His training program was the top-selling, number one
business-buying
seminar nationally. Be a fly on the wall as you listen to more of Art's
amazing
story. He is a very genuine man and really loves what he does. He wants
you
to succeed. I know you will enjoy this talk with a true master on how
to
buy an existing business successfully.

How A Ten-Minute
"Chat" With Art Hamel Turned
Into A "Mini-Seminar" Revealing Some Of His Most Jealously-Guarded
Secrets!
|
I just got off the phone with Art Hamel,
asking him a question about dealing
with business brokers and getting around having to "jump through hoops"
just
to get in touch with the seller of a business you want to buy.
And
what was meant to be just another ten minute "chat" turned into a
"mini-seminar"
on buying businesses! I don't know if he intended to do this or not -
but
he ended up revealing many of his "top secret" tactics for buying
businesses.
Secrets he doesn't talk about with people anymore. Secrets that will
quite
literally blow your mind. Luckily, I recorded this call and have
uploaded
it online for you to listen to. The only thing is Art may not let me
keep
this file up long, so you might want to check it out right away: This
recording
is 31 minutes. Below are the word-for-word transcripts of this
recording
and a sample letter, a phone script and a letter you can post on your
website to get business sellers contacting you.

Detailed
Answers To
Questions From Existing Art Hamel Students (Session One)
|
|
More and more people
are buying Art Hamel’s course on business buying. As a result,
more specific questions are being asked that have not been covered in
some of my other interviews with Art. Here’s a new
recording to cover more questions that have been asked by Art’s
students and detailed answers from Art himself.
As you listen, you
will hear detailed answers to questions such as:
What is the percentage
of return for the investors, Art’s fee, and what percentage of the
business will the buyer own? Hear Art answer this question giving
detailed examples and the math behind them based on his
personal experience of more than fifty years of business buying.
What kind of
involvement in running the business is the buyer going to have if Art
becomes involved? Basically, it depends on the buyer’s management
experience. Art gives great examples in answering this question
as well as what his involvement would be when a deal is made with his
assistance and services.
What kind of businesses
should potential buyers look for? Should it always be a
manufacturing company? Listen as Art explains why manufacturing
businesses are his favorite because the risks are less than buying a
service business. Find out why service businesses can not only be
riskier, but other reasons why they may not be your best choice.
What does Art think
about buying an offshore manufacturing company – specifically one based
in China? Art explains that it can still be a good deal, but how
more negotiation may be necessary in China or in the Middle East.
Would Art be interested
in financing a movie project? Well, with all of his business
buying and financing experience, you can probably guess that Art has,
indeed, been involved with the financing of movie projects during his
career. Listen as Art talks about the deals that he has been
involved with in the past and what his personal opinion is currently
about getting involved with more of these.
In a buyer’s first
meeting with the seller, what should the buyer ask for? The
details that Art gives while answering this question are a “must
listen” for potential business buyers and you’re going to want to take
notes. Art stresses that in a first meeting with the seller, the
buyer’s main goal should be to establish rapport and a relationship
with the seller. He goes on to suggest a few important questions
that should be asked by the buyer in that first meeting and the most
important information that the buyer should request from the seller.
When talking to a
seller, is Art available to explain his credibility and services to
obtain financing? This is the part that I like best: Art
suggests that the buyer send the seller to my website, www.hardtofindseminars.com to read
or listen to the volumes of information available about Art
Hamel. My website really will establish Art’s credibility and
will tell the seller exactly what to expect if Art becomes involved
with the deal.
I encourage you to
add this two-part recording to your collection of business-buying
resources. Again, Art leaves no stone unturned as he answers his
students’ questions in plain English with easy-to-understand examples
based on his years of experience, real-life examples, and a wealth of
business-buying knowledge. Each part is 55 minutes.

Detailed Answers To
Questions From Existing Art Hamel Students (Sessions Two & Three)
|
|
Welcome two additional insightful question-and-answer sessions
that Art Hamel and I had. Most of the questions posed are by
actual students of the Art Hamel Course offered on my site, www.hardtofindseminars.com. These questions
are from people ready to take the next step in business buying.
As such, you will find the questions to be very specific to Art’s
teachings as well as to his Business Buying system where Art, himself,
assists people in buying businesses.
Listen to Art Hamel’s
advice on these and other specific business-buying questions.
Is there a limit on
the size of business that Art would like a first-time business buyer to
stay? You’ll hear Art explain that there is no limit because he
is preaching absentee ownership and keeping the existing management
team of the company in place. You, the business buyer, have other
things to do. Besides, as Art explains, if you are a hands-on
owner, the day-to-day operations will take all of your time.
Has Art groomed other
business people to perform the tasks that he does in the event that he
retires? Although Art hasn’t named a person to replace him, there are many of his associates who could step in and perform the
tasks that he does in his Business Buying System. He also
suggests that his Business Buying course contains all of the
information you need to know.
How exactly do the
equity partners who have preferred stock get eventually taken out of
the deal? How do they get their money back? How do they get paid? Listen carefully as Art explains all of the options with
regard to the equity partners role in the business and how long they
stay in the business.
What happens if the
purchased company’s sales and net decline instead of grow? What
options are available to the investors? Art’s answers to these
questions are of the utmost importance and value to any potential
business buyer.
One of Art’s students
had a bad and costly experience working with the broker firm,
International Profit Associates (IPA). Hear Art explain that
every year some television network exposes a company like IPA.
Art states that many of these business broker companies are not
legitimate and tells what areas of the country are known to have the biggest
scams.
Several questions are
posed by a buy-out specialist who is now one of Art’s student.
This gentleman has never dealt with outside investors and wanted to
know how much of an investment he would be required to make. How
could his own equity investment be minimized?
You’ll hear Art
explain all of the options available in his Business Buying System and
the reasons for certain stipulations. Can someone use his or her own
source of financing when working with Art? It is well-known that Art
prefers his students to buy manufacturing companies because these
companies’ machinery assets lessen the buyer’s risk.
Would Art absolutely object to working a deal with a service company,
such as a construction company?
These and many other business buying
questions are answered in this 48-minute Question-and- Answer
session. If you have found Art Hamel’s previous interviews to be
thought-provoking, then you won’t be disappointed by this! I
invite you to listen for yourself and increase your knowledge about the
best business-buying system currently available.

How To
Use “Business Angels” To Get All
The Money You Need For The Business Of Your Dreams.
|
|
How would you like to find the money you need
to buy a business without using banks or any of the painful traditional
financing options?
Here is an interview I did with Christine Kaine, the founder of
Business Angels, Pty Ltd in Melbourne Australia. This is a fascinating
call in which Christine explains the concept of Business Angels, or
Angel Investors, who are looking to help a business grow by utilizing
their business expertise and established networks in return for a
percent of ownership. Some Angels invest in a growing company as well
as becoming an integral part of the company.
Business Angels Pty Ltd is a service that matches Business Angels with
companies who want to grow their business by associating with an Angel
who has experience and is an expert in their type of business. It’s
almost like a dating service for businesses and investors! Christine
explains her screening process and the many scenarios of how and why
Business Angels and businesses can work together to accomplish the
ultimate goal of making a business very successful. You will be amazed
with the possibilities!

Everything You
Always Wanted To Know About Buying A Franchise: Interview With Art Hamel
|
I get so many questions about franchises that
when I had the opportunity to interview business-buying expert Art
Hamel about franchising, I jumped at the chance! I sent out an email to
my entire list about the upcoming interview and asked people to email
their questions so that I could pose them to Art during the interview.
At the beginning of the interview, you’ll hear how Art got started in
franchising in the mid 1960’s. Since then, he’s been both a franchisee
as well as a franchiser.
This audio is a goldmine for anyone who is considering buying a
franchise! Art gives a down-to-earth, honest opinion of each question.
You won’t want to miss listening to how his years of experience has
truly made him an expert in franchising.
Here are just a few of
the questions:
- Why should a person
consider buying a franchise as opposed to buying an existing
business?
- What type of person
should buy a franchise and why?
- What type of person
absolutely shouldn’t buy a franchise?
- Are there federal
regulations to prevent fraud in the franchise business? If so,
where can I obtain information on this subject?
- If I’m set on buying a
certain franchise, what types of research should I do before making my
final decision?
- Do all businesses
charge their franchisees monthly franchise fees? Are franchise
fees regulated by the government? What do I get in return for
paying the fee?
- Is it wise to start my
franchise in “virgin territory”? (This would be some area of
the country where there are no other franchises like mine.)
- How many hours per week
will I have to spend when I’m first starting up my franchise?
- Is buying a restaurant
franchise, such as McDonald’s, a good idea?
- Do I have any recourse
against the parent company if my franchise is a failure?
Art doesn’t pull any punches when it comes to telling it like it really
is! I know that you will enjoy this 40-minute interview that contains
such a wealth of information about franchising!
