How to get Unlimited Cash Financing Without risking Personal Assets or Damaging Personal Credit

Livonia—The National Real Estate Network welcomes The Opportunity Creator, Pat Gage, as the featured speaker at the Mega Evening Event in May.

Every business needs funds to operate, whether it be for start up, inventory and supplies, marketing, hiring and recruiting, or expanding into new markets. Many business owners spend countless hours, applying for financing or on the phone with lenders. It’s very frustrating, to say the least, when one doesn’t hear back or their denied the funding they need and deserve to have. Pat Gage struggled along this way for some time before nearly going bankrupt because he didn’t know how to raise the capital needed to run his business. He sought education, attending workshops and purchasing programs from others who were successful. Throughout all this he managed to come up with some very key secrets to obtaining financing. Now, he has put together a program of his own that works.

Mark Maupin and Janak Mehta, of the National Real Estate Network, are proud to have Pat Gage speak to their members about business financing. “I have people asking me all the time, how they can get a business line of credit or an unsecured loan,” says Mark Maupin, co founder of NREN. “I’m looking to Pat speaking and sharing his ideas with our group.”

Some of the topics Pat will cover are the different types of business credit and how to have the banks and financial institutions eager to contact you to loan your business the money it needs to operate, how to separate business credit from personal credit to protect your personal credit score and personal assets, how to talk to bankers, fill out applications and get quick approvals, and more. He will answer questions and share his program with participants at the meeting.

The event begins at 6pm with structured networking and resource tables featuring local real estate experts and their products, followed by updates from founders at 7pm and the featured speaker, Pat Gage, speaking at 7:30pm.
The meeting will be held at the Laurel Manor, 39000 Schoolcraft Rd; Livonia, MI 48150, from 6pm to 9pm on May 15, 2008. Call 248-762-0800 to register. Visit http://www.megaeveningevent.com for more information.

Go Fly A Kite! -- Learn a Life Lesson


Here in the midwest United States it is now spring and yesterday was the first really nice spring day. It was 65 degrees and a beautiful blue sky. So I promised my daughters that we would go fly kites. About 2 in the afternoon we headed out with our brand new kites that my wife had purchased that morning and went to a local park.

We had a lot of fun flying the kites and at one point I was helping my daughter let out all the string on her kite so we could fly it as high as possible. She asked what would happen when we got to the end of the string, concerned that the string would not be tied to the handle and the kite would fly away.

I realized at that point that there was a great lesson of success I could teach my daughters at that very moment. So I explained to them what kept the kite flying high.

The only thing that keeps the kite in the air is the string. The string provides tension on the kite which makes the kite fly higher in the wind.

I then explained to them how life is the same way. We have tension, conflict, and struggles in life, but that is what gives us the opportunity to soar higher. Most people just complain about their problems and want them to all go away, but that is like the string in the kite. Without the tension what happens??

Well since my daughter was so concerned about the kite flying away I had to demonstrate to her what would happen if I just let go of the string. So the kite was flying high and the pull on the string was very strong. I explained to her that we were going to let go of the string to see what would happen. I don't think she believed what would happen.

As soon as I let go of the string the kite started to fall. Because there was no tension on the kite it now just floated with the wind and started falling. It fell to the ground within 100 yards of where we were. My daughter thought it would fly higher and be lost if we let go but quite the opposite was true.

Flying a kite is just like life. Many people think their life would be so much better if they didn't have any struggles, but quite the opposite is true. Without the struggles and the challenges in life we have nothing to overcome, nothing that allows us to become stronger and to soar higher.

So stop right now and think about your struggles. Take a look at them and STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THEM. Figure out how you can use these struggles to SOAR HIGHER. Use the tension of them to fly higher and overcome and achieve bigger and better things.

So that is why I say Go Fly A Kite. There is a great lesson of life in doing so!
Soar high in life by overcoming your struggles!

Financing Apartment Buildings—Cash on Cash Return and Cap Rates

Financing apartment buildings is a lot easier that most people think. It’s all about the income that is generated from the property. Commercial buyers and brokers use Cash-on-Cash return and Cap Rates to analyze the deal.

Cash-on-cash return is looking at how much money you have to take out of your pocket to purchase the building, then how much you get back at the end of the year after all expenses and debt services have been paid. For example, your down payment and closing cost are $120,000 and at the end of the first year, your profits were $12,000. That is 10% cash on cash return, which is average for an apartment building. Anything less than 10 – 12% return is not a great deal. It means you are either overpaying for the property or didn’t get the best financing.

Cap rates, short for capitalization rates, is a formula that’s used in the commercial industry, to show how much income is being generated from the property had you paid all cash for the property. For example, you paid $1 Million cash for a property that generated $100,000 net operating income. This would be a 10% cap rate. Of course you’re not going to hand over $1 Million cash for a property; this is just to simplify the explanation of cap rate.

Market cap rates vary in different cities and with different classes of apartment buildings. There are 4 different classes, ranging from A to D, A being brand new to 10 or 15 years old, with all the amenities of new buildings including pools, fitness centers and gated communities. Class B are 10-15 years up to 20-25 years old with whatever amenities were most common in their time. Class C are about 20-25 years old up to 40 years old and in need of more maintenance. Class D are like class C, with the only difference being that they’re the ones you hear about in the news, for the wrong reasons.

With good market research and analyzing of the numbers, the lender will be more likely to finance your deal. Remember that the lender is your friend; he has done the same analysis of the property that you have done. He is putting his money on the line, so he will be likely to catch something if you should miss it. It’s a good idea to develop a relationship with a lender and appreciate his concern, even if he denies the loan based on his analysis; chances are, he’s saving you from making a costly mistake.

Boot Camp-Eight Weeks to Educate on Purchasing and Managing Apartment Buildings

Anthony Chara is an experienced investor in apartments who has also mentored hundreds of students. The eight week program begins with a three day boot camp where students are taught the full process of buying apartment buildings, from locating the property, quick analysis, and making an offer.

Many people spend so much time looking into every nook and cranny that they lose their focus and never get around to making an offer. The quick analysis takes about five minutes, then it’s time to make an offer. Since the analysis and offer are made quickly in order to tie the property up, it is important to have escape clauses built into the contract. This protects the investor in the event of an unforeseen detail in the property arises, making the deal less desirable.

Investors also need time to perform their due diligence to confirm the accuracy of the numbers received from the seller are accurate. If there are discrepancies, further negotiations on price and terms are needed to come to an agreement. The final step is to teach students how to close the deal.

This is a lot of learning packed into a three day event. Many come home and put their books away and get back to their same routine. They never take action and apply what they have learned in the boot camp. To avoid having students held back by fear or lack of confidence, there are eight weeks of follow up consisting of teleseminars and webinars to get through that mindset and give students an action plan to follow.

Can a Nine to Five Worker Handle Investing in Apartment Buildings?

You work 9am to 5pm, living paycheck to paycheck, and have very little or no money in the bank. You know there has to be a better way to live. Anthony Chara is a real estate investor and mentor. Read on for a story about one of Anthony Chara’s students.

George did not work 9 to 5; he worked 8am to 8pm, before coming home to his wife and two small children. His days and evenings were eaten up by work and family. Thanks to the internet, he was able to search for an apartment building, analyze the numbers and make an offer. He would often stay up until two or three in the morning. He would send his letter of intent to the seller’s agent in the middle of the night and call them on his way to work in the morning to request they take a look at it and get back to him. That is how he got started investing in apartment buildings.

So, the answer to the question is yes, you can do this part time because you are buying a business. You can have a management company handling the maintenance, collections, accounting and other tasks, while you continue to work your regular job until you are sure you are making enough passive income to give it up if you choose to.

Investing in Apartment Buildings-Market Cycle and 10/31 Exchange

The beauty of owning apartment buildings is the monthly cash flow. But, there comes a time when you have paid so much into the principle and reach a certain peak that you are no longer able to depreciate the building as much as you would like to. How do you determine when it is the right time to sell?

This is a good question for your accountant to answer, but on the average, it is recommended that you own the building for somewhere between five to ten years. Unlike buying a house, fixing it up, and flipping it to make $50,000, you are buying the apartment building for the cash flow. Look at the market cycles because each city has its own cycle regarding apartments, single family homes and the economy in that particular city. There comes a time when you will be receiving maximum rents, getting maximum depreciation and expenses should be under control. When you are no longer able to depreciate the property quickly enough to enjoy the tax benefits that is the time to do a 10/31 exchange, which is when you sell this first building, by a new building, and transfer the equity and start the depreciation cycle all over again for another five to ten years.

Purchasing Apartment Buildings with Seller Financing

There are several ways to finance the purchase of apartment buildings besides traditional financing and conventional mortgages. Seller financing can be a favorable option to both the seller and buyer.

One of the things investors do not think to ask for in purchasing an apartment building is seller financing. There are some sellers who are not open to it because they don’t understand it or they don’t know about how they can reduce their tax liability by accepting monthly payments rather than getting the full payoff up front. They do see a large amount up front, and by taking a carry-back, they continue to receive payments for the next few years. Another advantage is that they continue to see the cash flow from the building without the headache of management and maintenance.

The advantage to the buyer is they are able to purchase the building with less conventional financing. Perhaps they are held back by credit issues and are unable to qualify for the full amount required to buy the building.

Purchasing Apartment Buildings with No Money Down

Is it really possible to buy an apartment with no money down? Absolutely! Anthony Chara, a seasoned real estate investor with over 15 years experience, has mentored several hundred students. Here is his story of how some of his students purchased their apartment building.

First of all, lose the mind set, “I don’t have the money for a down payment.” If you continue to say that, it will be true; you’ll never be able to do anything because you don’t have the money. Realize that ‘no money down’ doesn’t necessarily mean you are buying without making a down payment. It simply means you are using other people’s money.

Two students found a 98 unit building in Louisiana; they each put in $1,500 ($3,000 between the two of them). The total down payment was $300,000! They were able to convince other people to invest in their venture for a return at a later date. They bought the building for $1.2 Million; within 12 – 18 months it should be worth close to $3 Million. They will share the cash flow and the equity with their money partners.

It’s all about mindset. Lose the attitude “it’s too much work,” or “I cannot afford to invest the money.” Look around you; people are doing it all the time. Make a plan and work the plan. Set a goal for yourself and take action now-see yourself as being financially independent and you will succeed.

Time Management Software is a must-have when Purchasing Apartment Buildings

Once you have your business plan down and a team of professionals to work with, it’s time to begin seeing what is on the market. Remember, it’s all about the numbers, total units, market rent, debt service, property taxes, insurance, utilities, management fees, repairs and maintenance and any other unforeseen costs that may arise. The analyzing can take literally days to accomplish.

Investors use two forms of special software to expedite the analyzing process quickly and accurately. One is called the Quick Analysis; it looks at the numbers of as many as 100 deals and generates an income and expense report within minutes. When one found that meets the needs of your team, do your letter of intent to make an offer. The goal is to get as many offers on the table as soon as possible.

The other piece of software is called an APOD, which stands for Annual Property Operating Data. It actually breaks down all the information into a detailed look at the numbers. Rather than just providing total income and expenses, it will show each individual expense amount. These numbers matched up to IREM reports, obtained from IREM.org, and compared to data obtained from property managers in that market to verify and confirm that you are within the right tolerances for each category.

Investing in apartments is a lucrative form of business. The average apartment building is going to appreciate about 5% a year on average over the long term.

Consider the Capitalization Rate when Investing in Apartment Buildings

The difference between determining value when purchasing apartment buildings and single family homes is valuation determined by the capitalization rate and valuation determined by comparables based on supply, demand and emotion, respectively. The decision making process in purchasing an apartment building is all about the numbers, there is no emotion involved.


An apartment complex is valued based on the income generated from the property. Look at the number of units and the average rent being generated by each unit. Subtract the expenses to come up with net operating income, also known as capitalization rate, or cap rate for short. Based on the cap rate for the type of building in your market, you come up with a value. You’re not buying the building because you like the exterior, or it has a nice, big yard. Your lender doesn’t care about any of this; he’s going to have his own set of guidelines for making the decision to finance the purchase. A lender’s decision will be based on the income generated from the property and the average cap rate for the market. The purchaser must show adequate income generation to cover any unforeseen crisis he may encounter, to assure the lender that the payments will be made timely and there will be minimal risk involved in financing your business venture.

Investing in Apartment Buildings versus Single Family Homes

Real estate investing, like any other business venture, has its pros and cons. There are reasons why some real estate investors do better than others; they take the time to fully analyze the deal to make better choices.


Some investors are not aware of the profitability of investing in apartment buildings versus single family homes. Apartment buildings can generate $1,000 to $5,000 a month in positive cash flow, where the profits on single family homes are as low as $100 to $150 per month.

Many investors will not take an interest in purchasing apartment buildings because of their lack of knowledge and experience. They don’t understand how investing in apartment buildings works and they feel they do not have enough money to make this large of an investment. A surprising fact is that it can be easier to purchase an apartment building than a single family home. When purchasing an apartment building, you are buying a business stream of income in which the cash flow makes the payments and pays overhead costs. A lender looks at this when analyzing the risk factor of his investment in providing the financing. So, even if you don’t have great credit, you can team up with other people and borrow-in essence, use other people’s money; use other people’s credit. So purchasing an apartment building is easier because the lender will see that the building stands on it own financially before they even take a look at the borrower.

What it really comes down to is they are limiting themselves with their own thought process, telling them selves “they can’t do it,” instead of changing their mind set and taking action to do what many others around them are doing.

Teamwork is the Key to Successful Investing in Apartment Buildings

Real estate has proven to be an effective means of reaching a desired lifestyle of comfort. The challenging decision to make is the particular area of real estate to go into. The bottom line is whatever area of real estate you enter the key to success is research, networking and coaching.


It has proven that buying an apartment building with a group of people is far more profitable than purchasing the property alone. Building a solid team is paramount especially on the first or second deal. With a team, the risk is being spread so in the event of financial crisis, the team as a whole will cover the challenge. With a team of multi-talented professionals to share the workload, each partner performs their given task, including bookkeeping, repairs and maintenance, collections, tenant relations and more. Each partner is of the same mindset; they share same goals, therefore, they are all motivated to do quality work as their contribution to the venture.

An important step for the team to consider is financing. The lender will want to see an appraisal on the building, and the business plan that shows income and expense flow. During this investigation period the lender will determine profitability of the investment to be sure the venture covers expenses including mortgage payments, property taxes, insurance, management, maintenance, utilities and repairs. The lender wants to there is enough profit to cover any losses, including vacancies, non-paying tenants, eviction costs, and upcoming repairs and maintenance. The more the cushion that’s left over each month, the less stringent the lender will review the credit worthiness and reserves of the perspective buyers. Simply put, if the investment is not profitable, the lender will not approve the loan. One factor to remember is that when an investor buys an apartment building, they are buying a business. The building must stand on its own financially and create the money to support the business. A great team with a great business plan reduces the lender’s risk concern.

Top 4 Tips to Arriving First In Life When You Aren’t the Fastest

There will always be someone faster than you in life. At least that’s what self-made millionaire Matthias Schmelz would say. Although it’s daunting to be last, Schmelz says there are ways to arrive first in life even when you aren’t the fastest.

Never stop moving.

When you have found something you enjoy doing, keep doing it. Once you have found a project that works, keep at it. Stopping one project only to take on another will hold you back. It takes patience and follow-through to reach end goals.

Although you may feel frustrated with your project, Schmelz argues we have to stay dedicated to what we are doing in order to find success. Much like the tortoise and the hare, the tortoise moved slower but never gave up. He never took breaks to do something else. He stayed with it. And he won.

Make use of free time.

Believe it or not, you can arrive first even using free time. In spite of the advice in #1, the key is to use your free time well. Define what you want free time to mean for you. Does it include recharging your batteries, spending time with family, or taking care of your health by going to the gym? It can also include reading up on industry research while waiting for your flight or plotting your next business move while you wait for your appointment.

Knowing how you want to use your free time strikes that balance between getting your to-do list done and having time to rejuvenate for your next big move. Using free time effectively makes that possible.

Have the end in mind before you start.

In order to be successful, you’ve got to have the end in mind before you even begin. Without it how will you know where you’re going? How will you know when you’ve arrived? Successful people start making plans even when they don’t have all the answers.

Develop strategies for what you want to achieve. And turn those ideas into reality. Practice setting goals at the start of each project. Determine what you expect to get from it and identify the steps you’ll need to take to make that happen.

Balance your 80/20.

It’s no secret that 80% of business comes from 20% of clients. The reverse is also true. Arriving first in life means we fall into the former category, not the latter.

Where do you fall in these scenarios? Find what makes you most of your business and keep doing it. This means you must evaluate your projects and objectively look at what is making you money and what isn’t. Change up your strategies to make them more efficient and effective. If they aren’t profitable, don’t waste your time with them!

The Worst Jobs and How to Avoid Them

What does it mean to have a job? According to Matthias Schmelz, it means being “just-over-broke”. So what are the worst jobs? The jobs that are focused on making your boss richer. And that’s just about every job out there. So what’s the secret to getting rich? Being your own boss.

There are numbers of reasons people continue to stay in jobs that make everyone around them richer. But the successful stop the cycle and create their own opportunities. Fear of failure and lack of confidence can paralyze people from taking the big leap. You don’t have to let these slow you down.

Start your projects on the side. It’s okay to be your own boss, even if it’s part-time. Many successful entrepreneurs started out with side businesses that eventually grew into something bigger.

Try often and fail often. Really, it’s okay to fail. Entrepreneurs accept that failure doesn’t have to be the end. It is often the beginning of something even better. Another opportunity to try out. A chance to make something better. Be willing to give your best effort and give it often. Even Schmelz once had to try many different projects to see what fit him best. And believe it or not, he failed a time or two. Why is he a multimillionaire today? Because he never stopped trying.

Stick with the goose that lays the golden egg. Once you have a successful project, keep at it. According to Schmelz, don’t diversify into lots of other unrelated projects. Become expert at what is working best for you, and watch it grow.

Remember the psychology of success. When you see something that works, adopt it. When it isn’t working, do the exact opposite. Very wealthy people know when something is working and when it isn’t. They also respond quickly to get the most out of their investment.

The Diversity Question: Tips Every Entrepreneur Should Know About Growing a Venture

One of the most common questions Matthias Schmelz gets asked is: Should I have multiple streams of income or put all my eggs in one basket?

According to Schmelz, put all your eggs in one basket. And then watch it grow. It may seem contrarian in a culture focused on mitigating risk. But in reality, successful people find something that works and they stick with it.

Critics would argue that’s dangerous. According to them, too much of one thing is never good. Advocates rightfully point out though, that having multiple streams of income eventually becomes too difficult to manage. The problems that result such as poor financial management ultimately defeat the original purpose of becoming wealthy.

So what should you do?

1. -If you don’t want to lose, then put your eggs in many different baskets. You may not win much, but you won’t lose much either.

2. -If you’re in it to win, put your eggs in one basket and watch it diligently. Pick one product in the market and become an expert on it.

3. -Think before you decide. Know your goals and what you want to achieve. Get the necessary information. And then act on it! Sitting on good information is just as bad as utilizing poor information. Balance your decision as much as possible between rationality and your gut instinct. If all else fails, go with your gut!

When deciding the best course of action, remember to give yourself credit. You may not have all the answers you want, but you know a lot more than you think you do. Give yourself room to think through the information you do have. The first thoughts that come into your head are usually the most accurate. You’ll be surprised at what you come up with.

Success: It’s all about the Outbound Mode

How many emails do you get per day? Hundreds? Ask yourself how long you spend each day checking and responding to these messages. For some it can take hours to get through email messages.

The successful know how to manage this phenomenon. They focus on outbound mode activities first – those that allow them to get their work out the door. Secondly, they attend to inbound mode activities – those tasks that others have for them. What does this mean? It means getting your work done first before doing everyone else’s.

How do you switch modes when you’re faced with 1-2 hours of email reading per day? Read below to find out.

1. Send 10 emails every morning before responding to those sent to you. This allows you to get your work done before thinking about what everyone else wants from you.

2. Analyze the calls and emails you do get. Are they requests for your time, advice, or money? If so, be careful how you respond. Too many of these requests will drain your energy and ability to stay in outbound mode.

3. Turn the tables. Once you’ve analyzed those messages, you’ll notice they are likely inbound activities. Take the opportunity to turn the tables and become the one in charge. Start selling. Make calls. Send emails. Do what you need to do to get your outbound work completed.

4. Become an aggressor. Yes, I really mean “aggressor,” but I mean it in the good sense of the word, which means taking control of your own life. It also means living proactively. Waiting for inbound messages to reach you is wasted time you could have devoted to your outbound activities. The successful don’t wait for people to need them. They are constantly out there doing. They are constantly moving. You should be too.

5. Avoid debt. Although this can mean financial debt, it also includes debt from the messages that surround you. Demands on your pocketbook and messages that tell you need more are distracting. The television and Internet are prime areas for becoming indebted to marketing messages. Be wary of listening too carefully. You have your own plans and goals to achieve.

Outbound mode empowers us to take care of our responsibilities. It also reminds us to avoid the drain of incoming messages, whether they are emails, ads, phone calls, or meetings. Taking a proactive approach to the way you live your life is yet another step toward becoming and staying successful. “Today is Your Opportunity to Rise Up and Live the Life You Choose!” Lance Hood

Stress: Who Knew it Could be Good For You?

There are books, tapes, shows and countless other methods for reducing stress in your life. While stress can cause many problems, in moderation it can be very healthy. Matthias Schmelz, a self-made millionaire, knows this for a fact.

Thought of as primarily bad, stress is excellent for many things including keeping us on our toes, staying ahead of the competition, and looking for ways to improve ourselves. Cut out stress entirely, and you cut out an important tool for forging ahead in life.

“The successful need stress,” states Schmelz. It’s what keeps them going and makes them successful. They thrive on the energy stress creates. This doesn’t mean you should lead a life of constant turmoil. Meditating, praying, and taking time for yourself are important for health and well-being. But appreciating the vibe stress creates is important too.

Tips for successful stress management include:

1. -Becoming bigger than your problems. See your problems as challenges and respond to them quickly. Be optimistic, and if the challenge seems too large, break it down into smaller pieces.

2. -Reminding yourself that stress is also a reminder: that we’re alive. As Schmelz rightly points out, the only people who don‘t have problems are those six feet under the ground. Recognizing stress is a tool for forging ahead. The successful thrive on it. They appreciate it. And they face it head-on.

3. -Recognizing challenges as growth opportunities. If you experience challenges, then you are growing. Growing and responding to challenges can improve your business, leadership abilities, and get you closer to your life goals. Addressing challenges can also enhance your profile as you demonstrate your skills even under difficult circumstances.

4. -Using free time carefully. Stress often comes about because we manage our time poorly. By utilizing free time to achieve personal and professional goals, we’ll reduce the amount of bad stress we feel.

5. -Helping others. If you learn ways to embrace stress, show others how you did it. Not only will you improve your own stress management skills, but you’ll also improve your relationships with people.

Follow these steps for a better understanding of the benefits of stress. By utilizing these steps on a regular basis, you’ll feel more comfortable with the stress in your life. You’ll also be more adept at managing it. The successful use stress to their own advantage. Now you can too.

Overcoming Obstacles: How to Deal with Tough Situations

If dealing with obstacles lets you know you’re alive, then there are likely times you feel more “alive” than others. Dealing with difficult situations never seems enjoyable. But responding to challenges helps us improve ourselves. And is something the successful do very well. Below are a few of the many tough situations you may face on the road to becoming successful and the solutions for moving forward.

Difficult customers. We all have them. Whether we are self-employed or work for someone else, we have encountered difficult people. Likely, we have been the difficult person before too! It’s tempting to disengage difficult people, but sometimes on the road to being successful, and then staying there, we have to embrace those who drive us crazy!

First, evaluate what they bring to the relationship. If they are high paying customers, it might be worth your time to get along with them. Do they have valuable connections? Again, it might be useful to maintain the relationship.

Second, be patient. Everyone has bad days. If they take it out on you, try to stay calm. If necessary, get to the root of what is frustrating them. If you can fix it, then do so. If you can’t, listen patiently but maintain control of the conversation.

Finally, remember difficult customers can be found everywhere. Although the grass may seem greener on the other side, it likely isn’t. Rude customers are a part of doing business no matter where you are in the chain. Accepting it as a reality can help you stay calm when it happens to you, and may serve as a reminder of how to behave the next time you are the frustrated customer.

Deciding between right and right. You may have numerous great ideas for making it big. Deciding between lots of possible ideas, or choosing between right and right, isn’t easy. Tempting though it may be to back track and start over, pick a project and see it through.

Successful people stick with their plans. They accept the project might fail. They also accept that it could turn out well. Your ideas will never come to fruition if you change your direction every few months. Success doesn’t have to happen over night to happen at all. Staying the course, even when you have to choose between many great ideas is necessary to achieve goals.

Asking for that promotion. If you want to get ahead while working for someone else, ask yourself first what you can do to make the organization more successful. Then, ask your boss. By putting yourself in her shoes, you are demonstrating your ability to lead within the organization. The boss’s role is to make more money for herself and her shareholders. If you demonstrate how you can contribute to that goal you are well on your way to professional growth.

Remember: by enriching others, you enrich yourself.

Obtaining start-up capital. So you want to own your own business but don’t know where or how to get the money? Matthias Schmelz says get it from your own pockets. Relying on other people’s money to make your own is risky. It can be tough to pay back loans. It’s okay to grow slowly. If growing slowly allows you to use your own capital, then do it.

You can also look for ways to reduce the amount of capital you need. As mentioned before, growing slowly is a great method. If you really don’t have the capital to do it on your own, look for a company willing to sell their goods and services on consignment. By selling on consignment, you get paid first and pay your expenses second. Taken from an interview between Lance Hood from SuccessInsiders.com and Matthias Schmelz.

Leadership: 5 Tips Every Entrepreneur Should Know

Leaders are the very best in their field. They are the highest paid too. Becoming a leader overnight may be difficult to do, but the tips below are designed to help you achieve leadership possibilities on your road to success. And once you’re there, how to sustain them.

1. Ask the right questions. Two of the most important questions you can ask in order to be successful are:
How - Asking how gets you out of problems and in the direction of solutions.
Why – Prioritizing your goals and knowing why you want to achieve them gets you closer to achievement.

An important reminder: Keep these questions positive. Asking “why me” or “why do I have to do that” are modes of negativity. Negative leaders don’t last long. The positive, optimistic ones do. It’s okay to be realistic and know there are challenges ahead. But asking “how” provides results and knowing “why” keeps you motivated.

Communicate. Want to be a leader? Communicate with everyone you meet. Some will be above you. Others below. No matter the situation, focus on your communication skills. One of the best methods for rewarding people you lead is communicating with them. And communicate often.

This also means you have to listen. Listening to your team members and knowing their points of view ensures you will be a more effective communicator. And keep at it. Becoming tired of communication is a surefire way to lose your leadership position. Stay motivated and know that by communicating with others you are establishing and maintaining your position as a leader in this fast-paced world.

Have a compelling vision. Leaders have visions. They set goals and take steps to achieve those goals. They also show others how to do the same. Having a vision inspires and motivates others, which is crucial for anyone wanting to lead. No one will follow if they don’t believe your message.

Keep your vision in the forefront of your mind and the minds of those you are leading. Listen to others and learn about their visions. Inspire others but also allow yourself to be inspired.

Know more about less and stay focused. Leaders know what they know and they know it best. Rather than know a little about a lot, they become experts in perhaps one or two areas. And they stick with their choices. Constantly staying abreast of trends, leaders know it isn’t possible to stay current on everything. By picking a few areas of focus they keep the task of maintaining their knowledge that much easier.

It’s tempting to be a know-it-all. But fortunately, as a successful leader we don’t have to do that. Do your research. Decide what you want to areas of focus to be. Keep the list short and then watch it. Watch your knowledge in those areas grow and your leadership skills will improve as well.

Keep your passion high. Leaders focus on what they do right rather than what they do wrong. Once they identify what is right, they keep doing it and eliminate what isn’t working.

To be a successful leader you must be able to motivate people. By focusing on what your team is doing right rather than everything they are doing wrong, you can motivate them to higher performance. It isn’t always easy to stay positive, but as a leader it is a must. So, at the end of each day, ask yourself what went well and what you did right. You’ll notice very quickly that you’re well on your way to success.
