Thanks Phil as always,

Scroll down and read, then print out and hang on wall, computer, monitor, somewhere you can see it every day:

Structuring a Percentage Deal & Using Other People's Money

It is the most succinct COURSE on deal making and is RIGHT ON.

Other comments,

Dien, I'm getting a full blown lesson on deal making from Harvey Brody...and consider that he makes 99% of his multi-million dollar deals from his home office...over the phone, fax and computer...he must have this deal making thing down pat (he does...and it is remarkable to those of us who haven't experienced it, to HB, it is daily routine)...

Harvey tells me he knows almost immediately if the deal presented is worthy of pursuing. That ONE skill alone is a valuable time saving money-making asset. You won't get BOGGED down in "bad deals".

Also, Sandi, I'm going to disagree with this statement:

"You or they, have a problem or there'd be no reason to be discussing a deal".

And it may be semantics or splitting hairs, let me know.

When you look at the deals that guys like Harvey Brody, Jay Abraham and Robert Ringer put together, it more often than not doesn't solve a problem, it creates more revenue or income. They make deals that produces passive income for themselves while increasing the bottom line.

The reason I say this is because many companies they work with are very successful, they don't have a problem, per se, they need to be educated or shown another revenue stream...exactly as Ryan says in his response to young Greg...

"Explain to the owner that they have no risk, as they will not have to pay you unless you bring in sales."

These type of deal makers increase profits for some very successful companies and businesses that are humming along, problem free, but aren't maximized in ways that a guy like Harvey Brody can help them with.

So, before negotiations even begin, the deal maker has to have a very clear idea, a well defined outcome, and the right attitude (as you mention) before an approach is made.

And the ultimate postion of strength is being able to walk away from any deal if it doesn't meet your criteria and makes you happy.

Once you have whetted their appetite, and you have a proven track record (although that didn't stop 17 year old Ryan)...they have more trouble walking away from a lucrative deal and are more willing to meet your "demands".

I do agree that "knowledge doesn't ... equal skill, but it sure helps".

It sure does.

Hi Gordon;

So when do you think you'll have this completed? AND most importantly, will it be available to us Sowpubers?

I loved the first report you put out on Harvey's material and have been anxiously waiting for more.

I think it's a poor choice of words on my part, Gordon. Rather than a problem it should be a 'situation' , which could include wants/desires as well as, or as substitute for, a problem on one side or the other.

On the other hand, if one wants more, or doesn't have what they desire or need and someone else has it, it can be a problem for them so... Ah, well, same thing, different way of expressing it, that's all.

Hi Carol,

Thanks for asking. The first part or Beginner's Guide to Toll Positions should be available before winter is over, maybe sooner. As far as "completed" goes, well...

I'm astonished at the amount of information, after all he's been doing this for 53 years now...and it may take a couple of years, working full speed, to get the whole of it "completed". But that doesn't mean we won't have some very useful, and practical...

no theory, pulled from the 53 years of success...

information on HOW TO GET STARTED that will help us all get established in the Toll Positon, or Toll Booth aspect of passive income.

Your patience will be rewarded, there is NO ONE out there that teaches this kind of stuff...I've been at it over a year, and I've just scratched the surface...although with Mr. Brody's help, I have gained not only knowledge but also have put into practice his methodology too.

IF you have a specific question regarding Toll Booth prosperity, I'll include it in the question sheet I send to him, OK?

Thanks Mack for the recommendation!

I'm sure I've seen his book around in bookstores... When I find it again, I'll pick it up and leaf through it to check it out... (and most likely get a copy)...

Cheers,

Hi friends, I work at a University and I have some visiting researchers coming over for weekly periods to engage in research. They get their salary by the company in France but I wanted to know whether we should tax them as according to my interpretation of Article 21 of the double taxation agreement, they should not pay tax in the UK. Is anyone else who have helpful suggestions on this as I am not sure if we are following the correct procedure?

Hi,

I'm no expert in this - for an expert opinion, you probably need to see an accountant.

However, many countries have double-taxation agreements. That generally means that if a person is receiving a salary from one place, and paying taxes on it, they should not be taxed in the other place. (Otherwise they would be taxed twice.)

I don't know for sure, but I would be very surprised if the UK and France didn't have such an agreement. However, to be sure, you probably need to see an accountant. You probably have accounting professionals working at your university who can tell you the answer, since I'm sure this can't be the first time this has happened...

Best of luck,

Dien

Not sure if any of this helps but it might contain some answers...

Although it might Not as it looks like much of it hasn't gone into force...
