We can help you . . .
1. Be among trend setting and state of the art
service providers to small and midsize businesses.
2. Earn non-contingent plus contingent fees
advocating for buyers.
3. Avoid conflict of interest & disrupting your practice.
4. Increase your income without attracting more leads.
5. Be more knowledgeable about buy/sell transactions.
6. Further differentiate yourself from typical service providers.
Buyers Are Paying for Advice • If buyers are paying you non-contingent or contingent advisory fees,
it can be more profitable if you use the system I pioneered in the 1970s, which users have improved during their 500 year collective experience serving buyers.
• If you are not being paid by buyers, you're missing an opportunity enjoyed by us and the business service providers who maximize their dealmaking income.
• Don't take my word for it. Without obligation, if you qualify to be an Authorized Business Buyer Advocate, I will show you my entire system. And then you can decide for yourself whether you would be better off with or without it.

Service providers to small and midsize businesses . . .
What would it mean to you if some
of the people who want to buy a business
were to pay you a non-contingent fee
to be their Business Buyer Advocate ®?
You can earn non-contingent advisory fees ranging from $10,000 to $50,000 from each buyer of a small or midsize business whom you guide through our Street-Smart 22-Step Acquisition Sequence ™.
You can earn additional income, including a contingent dealmaking fee. And services you already offer can be valuable to buyers before and after their merger or acquisition.
Using our system, you can serve business buyers — without disrupting your practice and without conflict of interest between your practice and advising buyers.
Would you like to further differentiate yourself from business brokers and other service providers?
What would it mean to you if you could materially increase your income without attracting any more leads?
Don’t under-estimate the value of third-party branding. Our Business Buyer Advocate ® reputation, tradename and proprietary materials can
differentiate you from service providers who merely add-on to their practice the
services they create in-house and then ask buyers to pay for.
Using a product created outside your industry and then proven in the marketplace
can reduce the natural fear of business buyers that may arise if you declare you
can “serve" buyers.
Similarly, some of the most successful service providers that diversify into exit planning
invest in third-party training, support and branding, which has been packaged and
sold to service providers from companies that specialize in exit planning.
A unique benefit of becoming an Authorized Business Buyer Advocate is you won’t be
among thousands of people offering the same type of service.

Why use our System and Best Practices?
Can you retire before you die?
Authorized Business Buyer Advocates
pose that question
to prospective clients.
The sad truth – most people cannot save enough during their working years to maintain their lifestyle in retirement.
For many people, buying a business is the most practical way to safely and predictably increase net worth, and support themselves during retirement in a lifestyle comparable to what they enjoyed during their working years.
“Survey says American workers can't get no job satisfaction.”
Only 45% of Americans are satisfied with their work, the lowest level ever recorded by the Conference Board research group in 22 years of studying the issue.
“About 20% of all businesses change hands each year. Your biggest hurdle may be finding the right one.”
Edward Moldt, Wharton Entrepreneurial Center
Why not take control of your worklife and income?
For people who can manage employees and have cash for a down payment, isn't it smarter and more profitable to buy a mature, profitable, fairly-priced small or midsize business?
Seller financing can solve the financing “problem.”
Of businesses for sale by business brokers:
• Numerous buyers compete for every profitable business for sale.
• Buyers commonly pay more than a business is worth.
Institute of Certified Business Counselors (business broker trade group)
Comment by Business Buyer Advocate: Do not misinterpret the above statements and do not blame brokers. The best brokers attract more buyers. This is good for sellers. Savvy buyers obtain third party advice to price businesses for sale; other buyers don’t have that advantage. ICBC data is from a study. As in all studies, the data may not be representative of the entire marketplace.
We show buyers how to access the hidden market of businesses for sale by-owner, where there is little, if any, buyer competition.
Only the most naïve buyers bid against other buyers.
We have the only system that integrates
5 activities essential to business buyers: • Business search, due diligence, financing,
valuation (pricing businesses for sale)and dealmaking.
Business Buyer Advocates are paid by “buyers” who don’t buy a business.
• The nice thing about being a Business Buyer Advocate is being paid non-contingent fees for valuable and necessary services, even if the client does not purchase a business. Only the most foolish buyers proceed without seeking competent advice on certain topics before they execute a purchase contract:
Business search, due diligence, financing, valuation (pricing businesses for sale)
• And then we can earn a contingent fee for our dealmaking services (which follow the above activities) if the buyer achieves a done deal.
Some business brokers say:
• They are not able to “sell” as many businesses.
• They are changing their communication with buyers to cautiously “present” the seller’s documentation.
• They fear legal ramifications if the business fails after the transfer to the buyer, and then the buyer (and maybe the seller) threaten the broker with legal action.
Clients hire Authorized Business
Buyer Advocates because they
don’t want to give up their dream
of owning a wonderful business
or have their dream become their
living nightmare.
Do you want a new or another source of profit?
A necessary service to offer existing and new clients?
Here’s the Answer!Here’s the Answer!
It’s Powerful!
Our program began in 1974.
We created & dominate our niche.
It’s Powerful!
Our program began in 1974.
We created & dominate our niche.
It’s exciting!
We help people get into business and grow their businesses — safely & profitably.
We’re the ONLY company with a 35 year proven track record of introducing business buyers to the best businesses for sale, 80% of which are for sale by-owner on the hidden market.
As an established service
provider, you may not need any
new clients to succeed with
our system!
Some of your existing clients
(including buyers if you presently
serve buyers) need our service.
You (and we) have a network of
professionals who refer clients.
These sources of referral
create additional revenue.
Here’s an example:
You know people who will
someday want to buy a
business.
You want to be the first person
clients call when they want to
get into business, don’t you?
We
can make that happen!
What kind of person needs (and wants) our help?
Savvy people! Those who get into business
the right way, with help from experts.
They also
stay in business.
Every client you help get into business or buy another business will pay you a non-contingent fee.
You can earn additional income, including a contingent dealmaking fee.
After that, you may be called upon year after year, to provide the other services you offer.
That is what you want, isn’t it?
Why do people going into business need help?
Look at the odds for failure, which you can help people overcome.
The Institute of Certified Business Counselors did a study:
On average, 54 buyers contact a seller.
Business buyers stand in line, to compete with a horde of inexperienced buyers.
Using our system, you will introduce your clients to businesses for sale by-owner, which are not advertised.
Your client is the first & only buyer to meet these “hidden market” sellers.
Only 20% of businesses for sale ever sell.
There’s a lot of junk out there. Realize how important it is to help your client find a winner. Our quick-screening system saves them time and money.
95% of "buyers" never buy.
Most become frustrated. They see their dream go up in smoke. It’s hard to keep the fire lit when people don’t use our win-win system.
Buyers commonly pay more than a business is worth.
You provide a valuable service when you help your client pay a fair price (and use creative financing).
These are powerful numbers.
These are powerful numbers.
The odds are dramatically against someone who wants to buy the right business, the right way.
Imagine how you will feel when your clients praise you for fulfilling their dream and saving them tens of thousands of dollars.
What about all those people who want to start a business?
The SBA says 63% of start-ups don’t last 6 years.
Finance is # 1 concern
“Guidance on finance and financial management represents the greatest area of need. Three out of four respondents said outside assistance with financial matters is their most important need.”
INC. magazine survey of small businesses
“What skills or knowledge do you need to enhance?”
Business finance is what 25% of executives and entrepreneurs answered.
Business Week survey
We wrote THE book for creative financing:
“How to Get ALL the Money You Want For Your Business
Without Stealing It”
About 300,000 businesses are sold every year, 94% of which are small businesses.
There are about 5 businesses for sale for every one that actually sells.
The Business Broker
The Institute of Business Appraisers:“Each sale of a business
should involve two appraisals, one for the seller and
one for the buyer.”
The greatest transfer of wealth in history will occur in this country over the next decade; an estimated $10 trillion is expected to change hands, and much of this wealth is tied up in family-businesses.

How exactly does an
Authorized
Business Buyer Advocate
help a client?
Let’s look at some of the problems we solve.
Our company is not a business brokerage.
We’re an acquisition expert: Business Buyer Advocate.
If you or anybody you know has been looking for a business to buy, you’ve discovered that it’s very difficult to find winners. Right?
Losers and businesses “with potential” are plentiful.
These sellers hope to find a greater fool ─ and they do!
That’s not surprising. In fact, it’s normal because of a major roadblock — few winners are advertised for sale, but they are for sale to people who know how to find them.
If a winner is found in the public market, there’s a horde of inexperienced buyers trying to out-bid each other for it.
They create a seller’s market.
That’s where our
“Business-For-Sale Locating & Screening System ™”
comes in.
Our system puts buyers in touch with
unadvertised businesses, the ones
for sale on the hidden market –
where 4 out of 5
of the best businesses are sold.
Buyers have another problem:
They are afraid of making a mistake.
After all, it’s their life savings.
So they invest in our
“Business Acquisition System ™”
Our street-smart system guides the buyer through the 22-Step Acquisition Sequence ™. We make sure buyers ask the right questions -- and get the right answers.
It’s risky to buy the wrong business, and a nightmare to buy the right business the wrong way.
The typical buyer (unnecessarily) pays 1/3 more for a business.
Our clients don’t, because they do not compete with the horde of other buyers and because we help them determine a fair offering price.

‘Why bother with running shoes? There’s no way you can outrun a lion,’ says the first. ‘Who said anything about outrunning a lion?’ says the second. ‘I just want to outrun you.’”
