I used to own 13 restaurants across NYC and TX. Sold everything for some huge eight figures in 2020. Had my funds diversified under a full service CFA. My portfolio returns six figures every quarter. Anyone of you going for FIRE(financial independence and retire early) make sure get help before taking steps. It feels good to be in control of your life having made the best investment decisions.

[@theexpendables3152]

Good for you. The financial markets have been crazy. Never been the same since the pandemic. Many are currently selling off due to crash. But tbh I'm in need of a good investment plan currently, I have a lump sum of $800,000 in a savings account yielding next to nothing

[@mattgallagher9940]

@@theexpendables3152 Highly diversified portfolio using trade signals from my investment advisor Susan Lynn Hoyt a US registered CFA who you might have seen in the CNBC news and tbh it's been a huge relief. Good earnings and little to no engagement at all on my part. My aggressive portfolio returned almost $300k in Q4 2021.

Just last year I would have said "I'm never selling." As time goes on and my life goals become clearer it's apparent to me, eventually I will sell. Likely within the next 10 years. Why? So I can move on to phase 2 of my life plan. There's so much to be done. Thanks for making this one I'm sure it will help me plenty in the future. As for raising capital I forgot all about that video, I'll be watching it a little later, but for now it's time for my post gym shower and a quick nap. 1 hour of learning to code then... 🤘🏽IT'S FINALLY METALLICA DAY!🤘🏽 Stay Passionate!

content marketing... that PDF that he talked about in the beginning is a "lead magnet", he then works on those leads to sell his product (increased revenue)... education causes him to be trusted and an authority. You're welcome for the valuable knowledge.

[@havefunoutthere6378]

I am in the process of selling right now. I received an offer letter last week and will begin negotiating this upcoming week. My take away is that every emotion that I'm feeling isn't unique - everyone goes through them. Glad to know I'm not alone. Thank you for the video.

Thank you for this video. I'm actually in the process of selling my company and we are in the due dilagence period.

[@ResourceTalks]

People buy from people they know. And something else I've learned in all of the years I've ruined different businesses is that we (people) are cry babies and don't just want VALUE, we want every single aspect of the thing that we buy (may that be service or goods) to be perfect and full of all extras and options, and since getting a credit is not even a super hard thing to get anymore, we don't even care how much it costs. So if you want to increase your business' value, pay attention to the details and stuff it with quality options everyone can enjoy!

[@ramiawad4857]

Excellent video, you are a beast.

It amazes me how someone can do a Kiki challenge video and get to 3 million views in one day, and a channel was so much information like this one we cannot get to a million, Pat maybe you or Mario should do a Kiki challenge video on the Rolls, I also think it'll be awesome if you did take some live calls or answer some questions from the fans, I know I have two questions it will be life-changing for me if they got an answer from a person with your caliber, maybe we can call it "Ask it with Patrick"

When you talked about what kinds of offers should you expect... could you teach us more on how to make sure you are not underselling ? like your ask would be the sweet spot where the buyer would not turn off and they would also go high?

It is really confusing I have one question Mr Patrick you were in military then how did you learn about business and management all that stuff from

[@plaisirdelanglais]

I would like to know your opinion also about the employees and how to deal with the culture and feel of the business. It does happen quite often that actually the business goes down after the sale and people leave because of the new hierarchy or attitude. For example my business is very personal and based on close relationship with the client. So my future employees will have to be very carefully selected in order to give the same personal service as I give. Obviously I am very small business, so I am trying to put in the systems in so I can be replaced or not be always present, but I see it a lot with the bigger companies.

In your situation, selling your business to your apprentice(s) can ensure your clients get the same quality service while you peacefully exit the business.

Many business owners need to realize that it's never too early to consider your "exit strategy". The earlier the better as you can focus on growth and maximize your sale amount! #exitplanning

[@alexaelole]

1. Determine why are you selling 2. Meet with an M&E banker or broker 3. Set timeline expectations 4. Know your exit strategy options 5. Define your buyer 6. Before going on the market , what can you do to increase the value of the 7. Call your lawyer and get all your contracts in one place 8. Make it a good story for a buyer to make an offer 9. Fire your small CPA’s and hire a team with a regional office 10. Negotiation process 11. Companies are bought in different ways 12. Understand the Closing process

Is $300k your EBITDA? The market tells you the multiplier to use ( maybe 5x, maybe not), look at other businesses like yours, restaurants, that sold in your market (or similar mkt characteristics) in the past year to extract a multiplier.
