Step 6: Consider buying an established business

If you went to the trade shows, then you may have already considered spending the money to buy a pre-packaged business. But this is not solely limited to franchises. There are businesses that come up for sale every day for any number of reasons. Perhaps the owner is retiring to a beach in the Bahamas, maybe the owner passed away and the children do not want it, or simply they may be looking for a change of pace. Many of these are wonderful and profitable businesses that are available to be bought and taken over from day one.  

Many real estate firms have at least one broker or agent that handles business related sales. These brokers should specialize in identifying any exisiting businesses for sale, and should recognize any potential issues that may be specific to that market. Better sellers will even help make the transition easier for both you and the customers. This come sin quite useful as you will not want to lose any customers when you take over.
