Title: Silver Bullet #1: Don’t Sell Your Business. Lease It
BUSINESS LEASING
You might not be ready, or in a position to lease out your business right now. If not, we encourage you to tuck this away for a better time in the future. Business Leasing is something that every business owner should know about.
WHAT IS BUSINESS LEASING?
If you own a business, sooner or later, you will be faced with a decision about it.
- Keep working to age 100 and hope for the best
- Close your business and walk away empty-handed
- Give it to a family member
- Turn your business over to Probate (you are dead).
- Sell your business. Relax and enjoy life.
- Lease your business for long-term monthly income
and continue to own it while it grows without you.
Maybe you plan to work until you can’t. The question becomes, do you choose to work, or do you have to work?
Business leasing is an innovative retirement alternative to selling your business, specially designed for business owners who have not saved enough for retirement. Business leasing bypasses all of the traditional problems of selling a business.
- Walk away and collect
- Higher guaranteed long term monthly income.
- Hands off management
- Work by choice, not from need
- No capital gains tax
- Increased income as the business grows
- Still own it. Can always sell it.
- Keep your retirement
- Get the most money from your business
The truth about selling your business.
Over 90% of all small business owners who try to sell their businesses realize significantly less than what they ask for. If they are lucky enough to find the right buyer, they discover that they have overvalued the business to begin with, and after broker fees, legal and accounting costs, capital gains tax, and contingent deductions required by the new owner, the money they finally receive is rarely enough to meet the needs for retirement.
Business Leasing takes no less than 90 days to prepare, and can take up to a year to prepare to lease. Just like owning real estate, you must lease the business in good “show ready” condition.
So, what kind of dollars are we talking about here?
After it’s all said and done, you have four choices about what to do with your business.
Q: How much can I lease out my business for?
A: You can lease your business for last year’s 12 month gross profit divided by 6 (your annual renewable lease). Multiply your annual lease times the number years that you plan to renew.
Q: How can increase my lease value amount?
A: For starters, by increasing the business margin (Gross Profit) for the current year to lease for the next year. Unlike selling your business for a one time static amount, you are renewing your lease at the end of the term based on the the improved business value.
Q: What happens if my Lesseee fails in my business?
A: Your annual 12 month lease is guaranteed while you (or we) spend the rest of the year looking for another tennant.
This is unlikely, if you engage a Management Company to manage the business in your absence.
Q: What happens at the end of the lease?
A: You still own the company. Renew the lease based on how much the Lesseee grew your company during the lease term. You may also choose to sell it. After all, a good lesee is a built-in buyer.
Business Leasing is a viable, long term alternative to selling.
