THE LAZY PERSON'S SECRETS TO OVERNIGHT WEALTH
There are so many simple, yet really sure-fire ways of
acquiring wealth, it's a wonder everybody with even the least bit
of ambition isn't already rich. When you come right down to it,
the only things needed for anyone to make bundles of money are the
long-range vision and the energy to put a money-making plan into
force. One of the easiest methods of building wealth, and the one
most often used by the "smart" people, is to furnish the
expertise, equipment or growth capital to promising beginning
businesses. Basically, you buy in as either a part owner or
limited partner; then, as the business grows and prospers with
your help, you reap your share of the rewards. The beautiful part about this whole concept is that you can
repeat this procedure over and over again. You can start out
with, say marketing and sales leadership for a small, garage-type
business; then with your holdings and earnings from that business,
invest in another, and keep doing this until you own a part of
twenty-five to an unlimited number of businesses. Looking at the
idea from a dollar return point of view, if you were getting $200
per month from 25 different businesses, your monthly income would
amount to no less than $5,000 and that's not too bad for a
fledgling millionaire. Look around your own area. With just a little bit of business
sense and perception, you're sure to find hundreds of small
businesses that could do better - perhaps even become giants in
their field - with your help. Most small businesses need, and would welcome marketing,
promotional, advertising, and sales help. If a quick survey of a
business turns you on with enthusiasm about the potential profits
to be made with just a few changes that you can suggest, then you
are on your way. Basically, you set up an appointment to see and talk with the
business owner about some ideas and help that could double or
triple his profits. When you approach him in that manner, he's
almost certain to want to see you and hear what you have to say. In preparation for your meeting, set your ideas down on paper.
Put them together in an impressive marketing or profit-potential
folio. Outline your ideas, the costs involved and the ultimate
profit to be gained. Then, when you arrive for the meeting, be sure to look and act
the part of a successful business person. A few pleasantries to
break the ice, and then begin with your presentation. Through your proposal, you must instill confidence that you
can do all you claim for him. Guide him through the presentation
to the ultimate profits - all for a 10 or 20 percent limited
partnership in the business, which really won't cost him anything.
Of course, if he's reluctant to give up any part of his ownership,
you come back with the idea of being hired as a consultant. Almost all small businesses need help of some kind. The
owners get bogged down in a myriad of everyday problems and things
to do. They find there just aren't enough hours in the day to
handle everything that should be taken care of, and end up
neglecting or putting off some of the things they should be doing
to keep the business prosperous. As a result, the long struggle
for business survival begins, with more than 60% of them selling
out at a loss or just closing up shop. The other way to "cut yourself in" on a piece of someone
else's business is to supply needed money. If you can come up
with 10 or 15 thousand dollars, you can easily "buy into" some
small businesses. Be sure to look the business ( and its market
potential ) over; but once you spot one that can really be a winner
with just a little bit of operating cash or money for expansion,
then start figuring! You can reach a never ending supply of such businesses to
choose from, simply by running a small advertisement in your daily
newspaper in the classified section under the heading of Business
Opportunities Wanted. Such an ad might read:
By the same token, make it a habit to look through the
Business Opportunities Available on a regular basis. Mark a few
each day and follow up. Check them out, and see what kind of a
deal is being offered. Remember, proper management and planning
are basically the ingredients to success in business; and most
small businesses just don't have these ingredients in the
proportions needed to attain their greatest profit potential.
Other people have done it, and more are starting up every day. There's no reason why you can't do it. In most cases little or no cash is needed. But with just a little bit of action on your part, you could quickly become a multi-business owner, and very wealthy as well.
