Posted: Aug 18, 2008 10:40 am Post subject: Investor returns |
|
|
Well I am working on a new business plan (Importing). It's a work in progress that will require some capital before I make any returns. I have people whom I have discussed my plans with and have offered to help with investments. I am working on a proposal right now for a loan from the bank, as well as something to show potential investors.
Now my question is, what kind of returns does someone you borrow money from, expect? Would it be the total plus a percentage in one lump sum, or more of a monthly return with a certain percentage added to it until the initial principal is reached. For example, if I was loaned 10K, do I tell that person he/she would receive $1000 plus a percentage that we agree upon a month for 10 months.
I am not sure how to approach this, and would love some advice. |

That is probably more lucrative than granite machinery anyway. |

that is a loaded question, But, what kind of returns are your investors looking for? As a general rule, once you make a profit and decide to take a share of that profit for yourself, that number should be divided by how many investors you have and distributed. Also always follow the quarterly rule not monthly |

They are accepting the liability. They are also accepting more than you will receive. If your company has investors, you are going to receive employee wages until your monthly receivables are surpassing the investors' original liabilities.
It would be best to keep your 9 to 5 until you can finance yourself. Investors will reap the profits of your hard work.
