Talking to Advertising Representatives
Local advertising representatives have extensive relationships with the local business community, and are often the first to know when business opportunities are available.
Making contacts in the advertising industry will put a prospective buyer in touch with those most likely to know when an opportunity will be presented. More often than not, representatives from advertising agencies will be willing to share valuable information with a buyer who is candid about their intentions and curious to know about business opportunities.
Talking to an Investment Banker
Investment bankers have seen countless business start-ups. They have also seen these same businesses transfer hands, flourish, fail, and start again. Investment experts have extensive experience in the industry and they know what it takes to make a business succeed, as well as the reasons why businesses fail. They are an excellent resource for learning how to effectively run a business.
Additionally, Investment bankers advise countless people every day on finding great business opportunities. Asking an investment banker about the ins and outs of particular industries, as well as business opportunities can be a quick way to ascertaining how an industry functions and moves.
