Miriam Goodman - How to Survive Retirement As a Couple

We add new content daily! Listen on iTunes: iTunes.ExitcoachRadio.com. See the Index for more on this Topic or by this Guest. New content daily - check back often!

Transcript: 

Miriam: So often, people have internalized their plans for retirement for so many years. It's so much a part of them, they don't feel like they need to talk to anybody about it, and even if they're sharing that retirement with another person, they just assume that the other person is on the same page, and that's where all the trouble begins. People haven't talked about it, they think that retirement is just this reward for a lifetime of work, and they haven't sat down to say, "well now that I have it, how am I gonna make this important? How am I gonna make this what I want? How am I going to enjoy these years?" Now people are retiring and they might have 30 years of good health, good mental health, and they don't know what to do with it, and they haven't really thought about it.

Kim Flynn - Playing Big in Business

We add new content daily! Listen on iTunes: iTunes.ExitcoachRadio.com. See the Index for more on this Topic or by this Guest.

 

Transcript: 

 

Kim: Women have a stronger tendency to go into a service based business than a product based business. The reason for that is because it usually doesn't require much, and start up cost to start a service based business, obviously, if I want to teach piano lessons, I could just pass out flyers, you know $10 at Kinko's, and voila, I have two clients. But the problem with that is, it's not scalable on training time per dollars, I can't grow that business beyond my own time. So, the solution to that is, either go to a product based business, which will require more start up cost, obviously if I'm going to manufacture pianos, I'm going to have to get a big loan or get an investment, and then I can scale that business as much as I want to scale it. Or, if you have a service based business like I do, be willing to scale it, and that means be willing to understand that you are replaceable by employees, and you have to be replaceable. Your position in the company is to oversee the company and not to actually be in there working as an employee in your own company.

Minda Wilson - Health Care & Small Businesses

Host: Bill Black. 

Minda Wilson discusses health care legislation and its effects on small businesses and their employees. 

Transcript: 

Bill: There are some health care penalties coming up for 2015, what will they be and how will they effect small businesses?

Minda: Starting after the first of the year, if you have more than 50 full time equivalent employees, 50 or more, you're going to have to offer insurance to your employees. And the thing that most small businesses don't realize is that that means full time equivalent is calculated by adding up all the hours that your part time people work. And generally I advise people if you're 49, 48, you probably still should look into providing insurance because they do count overtime.

Chris Hill - End of Life Planning

Host: Bill Black Audio Library: www.ExitCoachRadio.com

Chris Hill discusses decisions that have to be made after the worst happens, and how you make the difficult process easier. 

 

Transcript: 

 

Chris: When somebody passes, there are about 150 decisions that need to be made within a 24 to 48 hour period, and there is no guide, there is no funeral director that takes you through all this stuff. There are so many things surrounding that, I don't even have enough time in an hour to tell you what they are. But, you have all these decisions to make, and at the same time, you've lost your spouse. And think about this, you've lost two things, you've lost their companionship and their income. Now, by companionship, I mean everything you did in your life, you did with that person, every decision you made. Now, you're own your own, and you've got a decision to make where you don't know what they wanted, how they wanted it, they're not with you to help guide you.

Larry Sukay - A Strategic Approach to Purchasing Insurance

Here's a past highlight from one of our Guests. Find their full interview at www.ExitCoachRadio.com -- just click "Audio Library" in the "LISTEN" section and enter their name to hear all of their past interviews!

Transcript: 

Larry: Purchasing insurance: so often that a CEO of an organization or the CFO of an organization, the biggest mistake they make is they go ahead and they focus on the cost of it. So that, kind of going back to what's the process? You know, first you're doing an organizational analysis or operational analysis, then you do a coverage analysis of the current programs, and then the third step is to write an insurance spec. Okay, so that's spelling out what insurance that we need and how it needs to be structured, and then going out to market and getting quotes based on that. Limits of insurance mean absolutely nothing, what's critical is the details that are within those policies. So if you have an insurance spec of what everything is supposed to be covered, how it's supposed to be covered, the detail of what you're looking for relative to the terminology within that legal contract, then you go ahead and look at the market price based on that. That's how you buy insurance. Buying it just based on limits is literally Russian Roulette.

Transcript: 

Gail: You know, if you document your procedures before selling your company, or before a key employee leaves, the documentation ensures that employees follow best practices no matter who does the tasks. If you do it right it provides that detailed step-by-step of how and why a task is performed. The other thing we like a company to do, is we know that the big picture is easy to see if you have process work flows. You can spot inefficiencies and areas that need improvement immediately. I recommend that all private companies should create workflows of their processes, their procedures, and their tasks. I also mentioned we do some consulting, and since we are spending time with our clients to learn that inner working of the company, we're gonna offer you a fresh perspective on what is and is not working efficiently. You know, that might even include not having the right people on the seats in the bus, and I've seen that often enough with many of my clients.

Larry Bell - Turning Life Insurance into a Planning Tool

Larry Bell discusses group term life insurance, and the benefits of turning it into a tax planning tool.

Transcript: 

 

Bill: A lot of people think group term life insurance is just a throw away benefit that your offer for employees. Here, you come off and say, "wait a minute, that could be an incredible, tax beneficial planning tool?"

 

Larry: So, today, we want to talk about a time tested approach using group term life insurance, a section 79 plan, to provide benefits for your employees, but also have a small group of those special employees that you want to handle differently, for just the owner themselves. And, we can set this up, and we don't have to fund it until the following October 15th of the year that we're getting the deduction for and that we're funding for the selected employees.

T. Phillip Boggess - Planning First Steps

T. Phillip Boggess of TPB Financial discusses the critical first steps of planning.

We add new content daily! Listen on iTunes: iTunes.ExitcoachRadio.com . See the Index for more on this Topic or by this Guest .
Host: Bill Black, The Exit Coach Radio Show - the Information Station for age 50+ business owners. 

Transcript: 

Bill: What's the first step in planning? Here's T. Phillip Boggess

T: The first thing for everybody, whatever you're doing, is you need to get started. The plan isn't worth the paper it's written on, unless you take steps to move toward your goals and take the action steps you had in there. The reality is, the earlier you get started on most of these things, the more options you have, the more likely you are to be able to accomplish what you're trying to accomplish. And the second part is, your plan has to be flexible, and you have to review it to make sure over time that it's still performing the way you want it to, because things change, you know, whether it's laws, taxes, economic environment, your goals, your personal situation, it's gonna change. So, we have to review it and make whatever tweaks are necessary along the way to keep you going along that path, or making the turn, if your goals have changed, to your new path so we are going the direction that you want to go at that time.

Rhett Bray of BeaconPath discusses how employers can use the services of a Broker to contain medical insurance costs.

Transcript: 

Bill: Medical insurance is a big part of your budget. How do you contain those costs? We ask medial expert, Rhett Bray. 

Rhett: We'll talk about wellnesses, how we can start to communicate the importance of wellness, and that we give the people and the employers the opportunities to do things that will help them to become healthier. We start to educate them on the importance of annual physicals, we start to educate them on preventative care. Women do this quite well, men have the tendency to wait until body parts don't work, and then they go, which can be late. And it's interesting, we take better care of our car, we change the oil, we see the lamplight come on, and for a lot of us, we don't do the maintenance that we should do on a regular basis. That will identify a lot of issues people have, that now you can start to address easily through medication, through exercise, or diet. There are just a few key areas that you can identify that will drive these higher costs.

Marc: I think the most successful companies are the ones that manage change the fastest. And so if you can manage change the fastest, you're gonna win. It's no longer good enough for the CEO to have a command and control style. Everybody has to be engaged and deliver on the brand purpose. And it's so satisfying when you as a team leader can put a challenge out to your entire team and have them help you to manage change and really drive success.

Transcript:

Don: There is somehow this aversion to the terminology of being viewed to be planning an exit. I have taken to characterize the process that I go through as endurance. I really have done it that way because what I do is try to help business owners prepare by building endurance across three distinct areas. And one is endurance for their businesses so that it can be sustainable after they’re gone, and we know that that’s one of the very important critical factors that a prospective buyer looks at. Two is establishing endurance for their personal wealth so that the after tax proceeds for their eventual transfer is enhanced and endured for family. And three is confirming the endurance of their personal performance. For those people that really want to move on voluntarily, we need to be taking steps to be making sure that the next phase of their life provides as much satisfactions as they’ve realized through business ownership.

Transcript:

Bill: You might be missing out on huge opportunities to get new business from existing customers. Here’s Tammy DeLeeuw:

Tammy: Where business owners really fail, after talking to hundreds of them, is they don’t think about their own database first. How do I get the people that already love me, that already trust me, that already think that I am the cream cheese of life, how do I get those people to go and tell their friends, their neighbors, and their relatives, without seeming like I’m begging? Database marketing, finding new ways to engage them…that could be with videos, they bought a widget from you, maybe they need parts for that, maybe they need to come in and bring it back and have you maintain it, you send little videos out that will help them remember to come back and see you, or remember to tell their Uncle John about you, or whatever. It’s really about content, it’s not about selling them something.

Transcript:

Bill: What does the future for business sales look like? We asked expert Heath Frantzen:

Heath: It’s a buyer’s market for the next 20 years. The Baby Boomer generation in this country has approximately 225,000 business owners turning 65 each year, looking for an exit. The problem is, is that there’s only about 24,000 sales each year, and 3 out of 4 of those are failures, so you’ve got a 3% chance, and only the most profitable businesses with the most flexible seller’s are gonna be sold successfully. And know that astute buyer’s have lots of choices, so you’ve gotta do the things that it takes to give yourself a fighting chance against your competition. Spend some time understanding that the professional buyer’s buy investments, and the difference between owning a job and owning a business is leverage, and this is leverage through delegations, systems, culture, finance, etc.

You have to give notices to your employees about their healthcare options, when you employ them you have to give them annual notices, you have to provide certain information to the IRS about your employees, you have to have certain systems in place for monitoring health care, you have to report healthcare dollars that you spend for them on their W-2s, and there's a whole litany of things you have to do.

Harry Barth - Asset Protection Can Lead to Reasonable Resolutions

Here's a past highlight from one of our Guests. Find their full interview at www.ExitCoachRadio.com -- just click "Audio Library" in the "LISTEN" section and enter their name to hear all of their past interviews!

Harry Barth, BarthCalderon, LLP discusses a primary goal of Asset Protection strategic planning -- to slow down the litigation process so that reasonable resolutions can be achieved.

Transcript:

Harry: “I think a very important component to understand is that as with all business deals, asset protection being just one of them, is to be able to settle a proposed claim within reasonable limits. It’s very, very difficult to do that if you’re in the jeopardy of losing your home, losing your business, and losing your life savings, so I think that it’s important that asset protection is granule. We look at the various components, we take into consideration all of the goals and objectives of our particular clients. And there’s not one particular size fits all, every situation is very, very different, every background is different, every family make up is different, every business transaction is different."

Doug Wilder - Overcoming Obstacles to Your Success

Here's a past highlight from one of our Guests. Find their full interview at www.ExitCoachRadio.com -- just click "Audio Library" in the "LISTEN" section and enter their name to hear all of their past interviews!

Transcript: 

Bill: What are some frequent obstacles that business owners or people run into as they try to plan their success?

Doug: Well, usually when they start off with a plan, they jump right into, "alright, here's what I need to do, steps one, two, and three." And that's probably better than no plan, but I recommend they start with why. There's a book out by Simon Sinek, Start With Why. What happens is, when they start with why, then they start to get a bigger picture of why are they doing this, what's their purpose, what is their reason to be, whatever you want to call it, but the bigger picture that drives them. Because if they can understand that, put it into words, and the fewer, the bolder the words possible, the stronger that statement will be. And then, when they have that, then offer it not only to their employees, but to their clients, to their banker, to everybody out there that they might want to influence. If they start with why, put the why first, then everything else starts to make sense.

Pete Tentler - Clearing Up 2 Misconceptions About Reverse Mortgages

What have you heard about Reverse Mortgages? In this brief highlight, Pete Tentler of Liberty Home Equity dispels 2 common misconceptions about Reverse Mortgages. The interview was conducted by Bill Black, The Exit Coach, on The Exit Coach Radio Show - the Information Station for Baby Boomer Business Owners contemplating Business Succession and Exit Planning.

Transcript: 

Pete: Many believe that when you obtain a reverse mortgage, the lender owns the home. However, this is not true. The borrower's will retain the title and ownership during the life of the loan, and they can sell their home at any time. The loan will not become due as long as the borrower continues to meet loan obligations, such as living in their home as their primary residence, maintaining the home according to the FHA requirements, and paying property taxes and homeowner's insurance, just like you normally would. 

Bill: I had heard one time that home equity conversion mortgage means that they lose the home when they die. Now, is that correct, or is that wrong? 

Pete: That's wrong. This is another common misconception. Their heirs can sell the home to pay off the loan or keep the home by paying off the loan, balance in full. So, they can live in the home for as long as they desire, and at no time can we say, "hey, time for you to move out." As long as they maintain the property as their primary residence, and pay their property taxes and insurance, they can live in the home forever.

Martin Holland - All Businesses Are Identical

Pop the hood, they're all the same -- so says Martin Holland. Find his full interview with the search bar.

Transcript: 

Bill: We've had a lot of coaches come onto the show and tell us that, "Yes, businesses look different from the outside, but inside they all look pretty much the same." Here's some great advice from expert, Martin Holland. 

Martin: All businesses are identical. And as I say frequently, all businesses are identical, and all businesses are unique, and of course, that is an oxymoron, but there are things common to all businesses, no matter what the industry. That's what I do as a coach, is we work on those common factors. The things that are unique: even within the same industry, one plumber is different from another due to work ethic, the systemization, the capital requirements, the location they're in, and so on. So that's really what I take away from having been in a lot of businesses in a lot of different areas.

Roger Royse - Today's Start-ups need to prepare for Exit Early

Here's a 1 minute highlight from an interview with one of our Guests. Find their full interview at www.ExitCoachRadio.com -- just click "Audio Library" in the "LISTEN" section and enter their name to sell all of their interviews!

Roger Royse, Attorney-Royse Law Firm discusses why many Start-up companies have a shorter life span and they must be very attuned to having an Exit Strategy right from the start.

Transcript: 

Roger: Start up companies, if they expect that they're going to get institutional funding like a lot of them do, have to anticipate a fairly early exit because their venture capital investors are managing funds that have definite endpoints, those funds term out. What happens is, as they get to the life of the end of the fund, or as they hold an investment for awhile, they're going to get increasingly demanding about seeking the liquidity of that. So, even though the founders might like to stay in the company for a long time, you can expect that the investors are going to want to see an exit, in other words, the sale of the company, certainly within 5-7 years. Now, having said that, I've got companies, legitimate startup companies, that have been my clients for 15-20 years. It just turned out that it was a good cash business and they just hung onto it and didn't just build it to sell. But, the typical startup, they expect a pretty fast exit, especially these days.
