Member You - Expansion & Exit: Getting the Best Out of Your Golden Parachute
Ty Harmon is a local radio show celebrity. I admit, calling Ty a celebrity is giving liberal use to imagination, but here in southeastern Colorado, everyone knows him. His lanky southern cowboy voice sooths away the sleepers every morning, as you wake up to his quips and quotes about living the ‘country life’.Everyone knows Ty isn’t a city boy. It’s obvious. He shares his fear of crazy city drivers from the one memory of being to Denver seven years ago, he drove to the Stock Show and drove home, a whole thirty blocks into the city on Highway 70. If that doesn’t capture your attention, the fact that he’s essentially computer illiterate, given that he is bothered by bloggers who might talk about him. Shhhhh, don’t tell him I wrote a whole article about him and posted it on the World Wide Web, he’ll go into Cowboy Shutdown and get on his horse and go home. But he’ll

For most entrepreneurs and business owners, there is a desire to expand their company to some point of success, then retire. Or move on to another business.
The Usual Solutions
There are generally two solutions: (1) Sell out directly or (2) do an IPO - the traditional Initial Public Offering - hope you raise some capital, wait a few years, then sell your stock... if it’s worth anything.
Selling out a privately held company usually results in a price 150%+ of profits. If you’ve been doing $1 million, look for about $1.5-4 million for your golden parachute. Minus taxes, of course. Not a terribly exciting prospect after all those years of work.
Solution #2 is daunting as well. You’ll spend close to $3 million doing an IPO. Much of your time, up to a year actually, will be spent doing “dog and pony” shows for prospective market makers and institutional buyers, often ignoring your business in the process. Your chances of raising your targeted funds are about 50/50 at best. And 98% of all small companies going public are not in business five years later. Doesn’t sound too promising either.
However, the major advantage to becoming a public company, among many others, is that your company is valued at a multiple of its price to earnings (P/E) ratio, normally far above sales. If it were possible to become such a company, raise needed expansion capital and build your stock value towards a major retirement nest egg - *without* having to do an IPO - you’d have a sane answer to your problem.
The Better Solution
It’s possible. There’s a Solution #3.

Entrepreneurs work harder than most Americans. They spend countless hours and enormous amounts of energy trying to reach business and financial goals that are often elusive. They seem to be doing all the right things: attending seminars, scouring the latest business books, networking, guerilla marketing, hoping, and praying.We all know of business owners who go through the same motions yet they are far more successful and don't work nearly as hard. And, they seem to have more fun. Surely you've seen situations where two people are in the same business, sometimes within a block from each other. The owner of the first business can be successful beyond measure. The other business can be close to bankruptcy.What is the difference? The difference is that the first business owner is allowing their natural brilliance to run the business. That natural brilliance i

Most job search approaches are Ready! Fire! Aim!Don't do it. Do your company research FIRST.What happens in the real world is that most job searchers will throw a lot of resumes against the wall and see what sticks. We all know that job search is a numbers game. Since a certain percentage will fall our way, why not stack the deck up front and follow up with those that "stick"?Here are two big problems with that thinking:1. Having not done the basic research beforehand, should a call come through for an initial phone screen, you are caught dead in the water. You don't even have any basic knowledge about either the company or the job opportunity. Not only do you look foolish, you're now toast. You've just been ruled out of contention after a 5-minute phone call. Your resume has just been thrown on the reject pile and the interviewer moves on to

People are living longer, mainly due to changes in lifestyles but also because of incredible advances in health care. One of the results is the need for more healthcare professionals, including nurses. One way the industry is changing is by offering career choices in the form of more educational opportunities and options.The Associate's Degree in Nursing has only recently become an option, though it's quickly gaining favor in the health care industry. While there are naturally some differences in the training for an associate's degree as opposed to a bachelor's degree, many health care agencies - including hospitals and doctor's offices - are recognizing the fact that those graduating with associate's degrees can perform many of the same duties and handle many of the same responsibilities as those with bachelor's degree. But is there really a difference?Th

Finding freelance writing jobs require great skill, dedication and lots of patience. There are many qualifications that businesses look for prior to hiring an individual to fill their job vacancies though.

Benefits to the Business Entrepreneur
Before taking such a step, consider the benefits of becoming a public company.
a. Private placements are easier if you are a public company, as the investors can trade their stock on the open market.
b. When it comes time to sell, your company is priced on its share value times the number of issued shares, generally far exceeding the balance sheet value of a private company.
c. Banks prefer public to private companies when considering loans.
d. It’s easier for a public company to expand into the Global Village.
e. You will become more attractive as a potential acquisition or merger target.
f. You will have sufficient funds with which to market and distribute your goods or services nationally or globally.
