Although many are familiar with SBA loans for acquiring a business, lots of entrepreneurs are unaware of the potential value of using outside equity investors to purchase a much larger endeavor.
This will allow you to put other people’s money to work, guaranteeing you much more in annual revenue while retaining 70-80 percent of a much larger business all while putting less of your own money into the business.
The real challenge is finding a deal that is right for both you and the outside investors. They are also going to want to make money, usually the value of their initial investment over five years or so in additional to their stake in the company.
