Will Your Business Last?

Posted by Jack Garson on July 14, 2011

Don’t just think about starting your own business--actually do it!

My book, How to Build a Business and Sell it for Millions, is based on one fundamental affirmation: there is no better time than today to become your own boss.

You need to be realistic; not every business idea is cut out for the long haul. If you want your small business to be successful and last, it is essential that you research the current market trends. Ask yourself, will my business flourish in the current economy?

Posted by Jack Garson on September 3, 2010

Commercial rents have dropped 20 percent or more, but the prices to buy vacant buildings in some DC area locations are down even more. With your lease coming due, and the economy hurting, is it time to buy or lease?  This is a weighty issue I spotlight in my column, The Legal Edge, featured in September’s issue of SmartCEO Magazine.

Be smart about selling your business

Posted by Jack Garson on August 24, 2010

I often tell people that now is the time to build and sell your business. In the next three to five years, buyers are going to be looking for profitable businesses, and one of those sought-after companies should be yours. Don't let the recession discourage you. Some of the world's largest companies were started during times of economic distress, like IBM, Disney, and General Electric, to name a few.

Now's the time to start your own business

Posted by Jack Garson on June 17, 2010

Building and selling a successful business is the next big investment trend. Why? Because right now, buyers are getting bargains when it comes to purchasing companies - in just a few years, those companies will be flipped for tremendous profits. I just discussed this trend with Angie Miles on the nationally syndicated show, First Business. Angie brought up some great questions about planning for your own venture - How much money do I need? What types of companies are likely to get purchased? Who should advise me?

Is Your Business Idea Profitable?

Posted by Jack Garson on June 1, 2010

Recently I was a guest on ABC-2’s Good Morning Maryland show in Baltimore to discuss my book, How to Build a Business and Sell it for Millions. While the book covers a wide range of areas in creating and selling your own business, there are four key factors of success that we discussed on air - consistent profitability, a competitive edge, sustainability, and scalability.
