THE BARON INSIGHT
(How to Discover Your Million-Dollar Idea)

If you are thinking about starting a new business, your product and service offerings should incorporate at least one of the following four elements: something new; something better; something for an underserved or new market; or better integration of existing products and services. Without one or more of these four critical elements, your business will struggle and you will be unable to command premium pricing in the marketplace.
If after a period of research, you are still struggling to find a unique idea, don't try to reinvent the wheel. Find a concept that is working well in another market and bring it to yours or vice versa. Think nationally or internationally and create local partnerships. Once your company is established, use strong branding, increased integration, and top-tier strategic partnerships to fend off competition.
If you are considering joining a direct-sales company, purchasing a franchise or buying an existing business to build wealth, it is important that the company you choose provides the following: a clear business model for sustainable success; a recognizable brand; an existing customer base; an accurate estimate of the ongoing operating costs; comprehensive training; and strategic partnerships. Without these six key elements, you will exponentially increase your costs and chances for failure.

Ask "The Baron" Question of The Week

What is the best way to build a
million-dollar business?
— Shawn D. | |
Willliam R. Patterson says:
When you say a "million-dollar business," it is important to clarify whether you are talking about a million dollars in revenue, earnings, or owners' equity. They mean different things and can be achieved with different strategies.
Here are key points to keep in mind:
- From a planning standpoint, your business model and exit strategy are important factors that will determine the speed at which you can build your business.
There are many entrepreneurs who are not looking to create sustainable businesses, only companies that they can eventually sell to larger players in the competitive space. This requires a different level of skill and planning than a sustainable business.
It is also important to clearly define your exit strategy when you start your business, and whether you will "cash out" of that business by automating it, creating franchises, an acquisition, Direct Public Offering (DPO), Initial Public Offering (IPO), etc.
One option for quickly creating a million-dollar business is to take your idea and develop it into a proven business model , then sell stock to accredited investors. This gets you to a million dollars in capitalization without necessarily having the revenue or earnings to support it. As you saw during the dotcom era, there were lots of businesses with billions of dollars in capitalization and little-to-no earnings. This is great for the founders and investment bankers, but does not mean much for new shareholders.
It also becomes a lot quicker to get to a million dollars in capitalization, revenue, or earnings if you are doing large deals and selling high price, high margin products and services.
- From an operational standpoint, your management team, advisors, and strategic partners will be key.
I should point out that it is one thing to build a million-dollar business, it is completely another to be able to sustain it, particularly in the face of competition. It also takes a different level of skill to run a million-dollar business, versus a ten million-dollar business. Most entrepreneurs we encounter are not prepared or equipped to grow the business beyond a certain point.
When we do acquisitions, we often have to replace whole management teams, because the business has grown beyond their ability to manage and/or to make attractive to a large pool of investors.
For the small entrepreneur, everything becomes a lot faster, easier, and more stable with the right mentors, advisors, and strategic partners. I often say, "most people are trying to do too much with too little knowledge. On top of that, they do not have a well thought-out business model or the right strategic partnerships in place."
Ultimately, business success revolves around four things:
- Developing a proven business model
- Recruiting experienced management
- Accessing capital
- Forming strategic partnerships
In THE BARON SOLUTION, we teach the 25 keys to building a successful business covering the following areas:
- Business concept development
- Forming entities and financing your business
- Branding, marketing and selling effectively
- Tapping into additional sources of revenue
- Developing the proper exit strategy for you and your investors to "cash out" of the business
To reach any significant level of success, every small business owner should have a business coach to help them avoid many of the hurdles and pitfalls that exist and rapidly build the business with integrated turnkey solutions. We have invested hundreds of thousands of dollars and tens of thousands of hours to identify more than 100 ways to dramatically improve any business. Operating without this knowledge, puts a small business owner at an extreme disadvantage and in a position where the probability of failure is very high. Whether you are building a million-dollar business or a billion-dollar business, always leverage your time and money by using the knowledge of experts and models that work.
