$100 Million Dollar Loans

If your like many people, you dream of world-class travel, building empires and kingdoms, living the life of a celebrity and making more money then you can dream of. you can achieve your dreams of living the good life if you plan carefully and make the right moves. That's why you should consider a $100 million loan.

This is the opening paragraph on the website 100milliondollarloan.com . The site suggests that you could just take out a loan and live off of it for a while without having to pay it back. this of course is not the case. These are business loans for commercial purposes such as real estate transactions or business acquisitions. They claim that you can get you approved in less then a week. It sounds way to easy to be approved which makes me think that they get a lot of late night people submitting loan requests just to see what happens.


After finishing the book How to Billion dollar Company from Scratch. Which I wrote about in my last entry. I see a lot of possibilities to do business with a company like this. I don't need $100 million yet but if I could find a company doing $30 million in sales that wasn't setting the world on fire. I might be able to get them to loan me $15 million to buy it and then turn it around. To help pay off the loan. And then wait for the next target company to come up for sale and do the same thing until you have a company doing $100s of million each year and can hire professional management to run it day to day.

How to Build a Billion Dollar Company from Scratch

I recently read the book how to Build a Billion Dollar company from scratch by Harry Figgie. Harry built a $1.3 billion company over a 30 year period by buying struggling companies and turning them around before combining them with other companies he owned to create a conglomerate known as figgie international. The book talks about a lot of the great ideas for how a person can build a very large company in today's economy with a strategy of growth through acquisitions.



Harry bought a $23 million dollar company in the mid 1960s for $7 million. He raised money from banks and personal contacts to cover the purchase price. The company was in tough financial shape and barely breaking even when he took over. He looked at the places on the balance sheet where they were spending the most amount of money, materials and administration costs and figured out what the best way to reduce those costs was. He was able to triple his net income by reducing his basic costs. (Every penny you save after break even or better becomes a penny of profit)

The most interesting thing in the entire book might be the idea that it is easier to get to a billion dollars if you start with a $20 million company then if you start from scratch. if you can buy a company whether it is by yourself or with others you have a better chance of building an empire that last a life time.

If you are looking for ideas on how to become a expand your business or find a way you join the ranks for the wealthy elite reading this book is a good idea. and it is also short interesting and easy to read.

search engine optimization


Since mid november I have been on a very long and drawn out process of hiring an SEO company to make our e-commerce site more search engine friendly after taking a strong look at our site we found that there was alot of things that we had done poorly and that we could increase new leads, grow our revenue and hopefully reduce the amount of money we were throwing at google adwords. over $300,000 a year.




Paid ads were accounting for almost 71 percent of our traffic out of 11,437 visits in the last 30 days.


Since december 2nd I have been writting Meta tag descriptions for all 3 thousand products we sell and along the way i have found 442 parts that descriptions that just didn't do the products any justice. all of that has now changed. for the better and constant improvements will be made in order to reach our goal of building a large presence on the internet.




on a side note hello to all of my readers in pelotas Brazil.
