November 14, 2017John Dade - Manage Your Future (K1417)A 1 minute highlight of John Dade's interview. Transcript: Bill: Why should an investor look into something like a managed future? John: Well, managed futures should be part of every investment portfolio. This goes back to the 1950's. A lot of people smarter than myself, Harvard professors, professors at the University of Chicago, Henry Markowitz back in the 1950's, came up with what's called, "Professionally Managed Futures: A Modern Portfolio Theory," which states that when you add a non correlated asset class to a balanced portfolio, not only do you get higher rates of return, but you also reduce your overall volatility and risk in the portfolio. A future's position is a commitment to do something whether you guess right or wrong, and it can be very expensive. On the other side, an option's position is what it is, it gives you the option, if you're right or wrong, to commit. So, simply, it's less downside risk. Want more control of your business growth?

November 13, 2017Josh Brown - Bet On Yourself (K1317)Host: Bill Black Audio Library: www.ExitCoachRadio.com Josh Brown discusses business ownership and offers tried & true methods that help both business and franchise owners scale and grow. Transcript: Bill: So, where do people tend to go wrong when they get into franchising?Josh: I think people fall in love with brands, but they don't understand the underlying business model. And, if you're going to buy a franchise, and be a good operator, you have to understand the underlying business model. I think people don't take as much time and consideration into factoring in their territories, because, as much as you are buying a system, and you're buying a brand, and you're buying the expertise of somebody else who has come before you, your location, your backyard, your geographic location is so important for your business because we were talking about how small business who are not franchised compete against franchises, well franchises are competing against them, as well.

November 12, 2017Swami Tirtha - How to Reduce Stress (K1217)Swami Tirtha is the Author of "The Hip Guru's Guide", and for the past 40 years he has been helping business owners and their families with natural health and stress management. Transcript: Swami: There's actually a lot of wellness research that shows that when businesses take care of their workers by giving them wellness plans, for example, several things happen more than we even expected. First, of course, they start feeling better. Secondly, they start to feel a sense of purpose, which you wouldn't necessarily put those two together. They then become more productive, more involved with the company, productivity goes up, quality goes up, and then another thing that people say is, "well, maybe if the workers are healthier, we won't have to pay as much in medical insurance or medical care," which is true, but they also found they were able to reduce their medical insurance costs in places like Safeway, saving millions of dollars a year. Taking care of your workers improves your heart, your soul, and your pocketbook. Want more control of your business growth?

November 11, 2017Terry Shope - Practice Your Steps Before You Get To The Big Dance (K1117)Terry Shope, Principal - MPL Consulting,Inc. discusses some of his practical tips for owners to prepare well in advance for the sale of their business. Transcript: Terry: One of the many situation that I step into is that you're dealing with the entrepreneur or owner, who's very creative, many ideas. One day they have this great idea and they work to implement it and the next day they have another idea. In a situation like that, I typically step maybe in as an interim manager, CFO, COO role, sometimes even as president, and we start working together to create a structure for the company, a line, a path both short term and long term. After a few conversations they allude to me, they develop a little bit of trust, that they're looking to exit their business, and of course they don't want their employees to know. After a period of time we set it up, we found opportunities to strengthen the top line, they had very sporadic sales revenues, and so we found ways to stabilize that top line and even grow it, which greatly helped the bottom line, and from that we were able to take some money, they had a profit sharing plan in place, but they weren't able to fund it. So, now, we set up a target sale date, and we start funding that profit sharing because the business was doing much better and we were able to manage a budget and things of that nature.
