Growing Your Business Through Social Media Assets🚀

Facebook Groups, YouTube Channels, Blogs, Newsletters, TikTok or Instagram accounts can streamline customer outreach and the growth of your company. 🚀 Social media marketing for small business is all about being strategic. While enterprise companies have the luxury of dedicated resources and time, small businesses need to be more agile, nimble, and creative.

There are now over 4 billion social media users 🤯 That’s almost twice as many as there were just five years ago, in 2017. Those users spend an average of 2 hours and 25 minutes on social channels every single day. Each social media platform offers different ways to reach your target market, which has become more important than ever before.

For example, Facebook Groups have become a popular trend to locate a target audience that fit within your customer demographic. And recent data from the 2019 Sprout Social Index highlights that 40% of marketers view private communities as a top social trend to prioritize in 2020 and beyond. Facebook Groups also provides a more flexible forum without some of the platform's constraints.

Well, maybe you've been using social media but I need to jumpstart the reach and effectiveness of your social media efforts.💥Instead of starting from scratch and bootstrapping a social media campaign that can be extremely time consuming, there are ways to streamline the process.

In fact, our sponsor, MediaAcquire, has developed the #1 program that can teach you how to acquire Facebook Groups, YouTube Channels, Blogs, Newsletters, TikTok or Instagram accounts. 📈 Click the link below to create your account.

How to Finance Your Acquisition? 🚀

In 2022, there were roughly 2,000 to 3,000 small businesses 📈acquired each quarter in the United States with the mean sales price of $300,000 💰 Most business searches don’t have an extra $300,000 in cash laying around for a deal, and even if they did, most would prefer to finance it to avoid allocating too much cash on one deal 🤝

SBA Loans - Small Business Administration loans 📄 are a great financing option, and the 7a program is probably the most popular option. For smaller acquisitions you might check out the Microloan Program which would be even faster and easier for you 🤓 Here are some key things you need to know about using the SBA loan:

  • Maximum SBA 7a Loan Size = $5 million 💵
  • You can finance up to 90% of an acquisition with an SBA loan
  • Minimum equity injection for an SBA loan acquisition is 5%
  • You can use a seller’s note for 5% of the purchase price
  • The maximum SBA 7a loan term = 25 years
  • You will need to sign a personal guaranty 😧
  • Your SBA 7a loan will need to be fully collateralized or SBA will require that you pledge all available collateral which could include your home or other personal assets 🏠

Seller’s Notes - A seller note is when a seller agrees to receive some portion of the purchase price of the business through a series of payments. Often this will be treated as a loan where the seller can earn interest on the portion of the purchase price that is financed with a seller note. Example: $2,000,000 purchase price with an $1,600,000 SBA loan, a $200,000 equity injection from the new owner and a $200,000 seller note that is paid over an agreed upon term.

Other Options: Of course an SBA loan and seller note are not the only options for financing an acquisition.  Here are a few more options that you might consider:

  • Start a search fund to acquire a business
  • Use your retirement account to acquire a business
  • Find that rich uncle 🧐

"Turnkey" Medical Screening Company For Sale - an established medical screening company is looking for a buyer to take over its streamlined operation with long-term customer relationships. It specializes in performing onsite medical screening (heart disease, vascular disease, cancer, and COVID) for a wide variety of companies.  Preventive healthcare is a rapidly growing industry and this onsite screening provides a "win-win" proposition for any company looking to include an additional benefit for its employees at a reasonable cost.
