Business With Purpose

Written by: David Roberts
  • Summary

  • Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no- one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell and this show is where these stories come to life.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Improving your finances takes the pressure off of family life and enables you to make better decisions and do the right thing for yourself and others.

    • Knowing how to budget and invest is just as important as knowing how to earn money.

    • The trading and Forex education industry has a bad reputation, which is not entirely undeserved. Lewis explains how he cuts through this perception issue so he can still have a positive impact.

    • Money is not everything, but it gives you freedom of choice which makes things easier.

    • Most people can learn how to successfully trade for 30 minutes a day, enabling them to keep their jobs while they hone their skills.

    • Mindset matters, if you believe you are blessed and good with money, that is the life experience you will have.

    • Understanding your personality type will help you to understand your tendencies including those that can get in your way when trading.

    • Using Lewis´s Star Trading method can legally be done in the UK without paying tax. How is explained in the episode.

    BEST MOMENTS

    “We're just chronically stressed, chronically worried. That stops us having fun, that breaks down relationships.”

    “Families are such an important dynamic for how society operates and works. If we can change that for more people, then we change the whole of society .”

    “It's not get-rich-quick, you do have to learn a skill set.”

  • Spotting a Gap and Scaling Up
    Dec 27 2024

    For this episode, David is joined by Andy Lee, who is the founder of Parallaxes Capital, an alternative asset manager and a market leader in monetising tax-receivable agreements on behalf of investors. Andy helps companies and organisations access tax receivables as an asset class rather than as a cost.

    He also explains how companies can take latent assets and use them to generate cash now. Before walking you through how to spot a gap in a market, educate customers about your unique and new service and scale your business.

    David helps owners and leaders to build their business without having to do it all themselves, so that they have a business that is ready to sell when they are ready. To build your business, so it is ready to sell, without the frustration and overwhelm,

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Parallaxes Capital accesses and deploys funds that others overlook as sources.

    • If you can claim tax (VAT) back e.g. £100 but need the cash today, Parallaxes Capital will give you a percentage of your refund immediately e.g. £90, then claim the full £100 and wait to receive that money.

    • Not many businesses or entities are aware that they can improve their cash flow using this technique.

    • Many companies are not leveraging the way the tax system works to finance their endeavours.

    • There are many ways companies can take an asset that is sitting there making nothing and use it to generate cash now. Some of which are discussed during the episode.

    • Every person you hire needs to add to your bottom line, not just cover what you pay them.

    • Marketing is equally as important as product development. You have to do both in tandem.

    • Don´t overpromise. People appreciate integrity.

    BEST MOMENTS

    “We provide liquidity for assets that are otherwise unloved or stranded.”

    “It's a nascent asset class, and candidly, it's one of those things where it's all about education.”

    “You help people to access these tax receivables as an asset class, rather than as a cost.”

    “The price that you're willing to pay is entirely dictated by the value perceived to have been delivered to you.”

    “That's a latent asset that can be converted into cash.”

    “Many people spend too much time working on the product. They don't work enough on the marketing of their product.”

    “Good growth is when every incremental individual you add, not only pays for themselves, they also deliver you a return.”

  • Key Things Not To Do When Selling Your Business
    Dec 20 2024

    In this episode, David, who has created and sold many businesses, shares seven things you should not do when selling your business. Often, these relatively simple errors end up costing you a lot of money and making it far harder to sell, so the consequences of making these mistakes are serious.

    David explains why these mistakes are so easy and common and, most importantly, how to avoid making them yourself. Including some things you need to start doing years before you eventually sell your business.

    David helps owners and leaders to build their business without having to do it all themselves, so that they have a business that is ready to sell when they are ready. To build your business, so it is ready to sell, without the frustration and overwhelm,

    Download David's Free Guide '3 reasons you will never sell your business and how to fix it FAST! https://businessbreakthrough.live/3reasons/3-reasons

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • At some stage, the majority of successful entrepreneurs end up selling a business.

    • Even people who have no intention of selling their business end up doing so at some point. They get sick, priorities change, or their children do not want to inherit the business.

    • Running a business as an asset that you will one day sell, pushes you to build a far better business.

    • To be saleable a business needs a strong team, good processes, decent infrastructure, a sound culture and great products or services. All of which will also boost profits while you own it.

    • Your business should be able to run without you, so you can take time off when you want. This has the added benefit of making it easier to sell.

    • Sell to the right buyer, usually you will be partnering with them for months while you hand the business over.

    • Do full due diligence on the buyer. The last thing you need is for the deal to fall through after months of work.

    • Don´t get distracted, keep your business performing while the deal goes through. If sales drop off the buyer will likely pull out.

    • Have someone working alongside you on the marketing and selling process. They will provide perspective and help keep things on track.

    BEST MOMENTS

    “Having an exit plan for a business, even if you don't want to sell it right now, can help you to avoid making common business errors.”

    “Do not ignore the chemistry with a potential buyer. You have to be able to get along. You have to be able to come to reasoned and rational decisions together. .”

    “Don't get distracted by anything other than cash, profit, people and service.”

    “Complete on the deal emotionally.”

    “Remove that dependency on you.”
