I remember looking at a TV show like Shark Tank and just thinking, “Hey, that’s exactly what I want to do. I want to be the main shareholder, I want to share my advice and knowledge, but I don’t want to deal with the day-to-day tasks. I want to call the big shots, the over all strategy of the business.” Moran’s advice for solopreneurs Most people just focus on one business – it has become their whole life. But the truth is, you’ll never know when your business is going to go up or down. If you’re in the business for 10, 20 years, something is bound to happen that will be out of your control. So Moran’s advice is instead of investing the money you’ve made back into your business, go invest it somewhere else. As one of his mentors always said, “You only build wealth by having equity in multiple transactions.” Approach to sales “Something that I’ve learned over the years is that the best way to get a deal going or to close a sale is just by figuring out the other side, making sure you understand what their needs are, what their problems are, and finding a way to give them good answers to those problems and challenges. The only way to get a deal going is to have a win-win scenario.” Mentions Connect with Moran on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter www.abdassets.com

At a glance, the journey of a business towards success can seem like a pretty set-in-stone path, regardless of your industry. Build a client base, sell more and more products, increase your hires and expand the company – that’s the framework you’ll often find in a business, but that doesn’t mean it should be the one that you follow. Instead of battling against competitors using that standard process, what if you could acquire those competitors – or other business that possess synergy with yours – and expand that way? Sure, it’s bound to be quite an expense during your company’s formative years. But, if you pick the right businesses and negotiate well, it’s an investment that could give you some serious pulling power.
