	*What is An Effective Prospectus?* An Effective Prospectus is a powerful tool to help you sell your business to the most qualified buyer at the best price, without a business broker. We do all the researching, writing, presenting, and proofreading for you. All you have to do is negotiate a deal. back to top *What's included in An Effective Prospectus?* Every sales prospectus is custom written for a specific business, so no two documents are exactly alike. However, each sales prospectus typically contains an Industry Overview, a Market Analysis, a Competitive Analysis, Past and Present Sales and Marketing Campaigns, a Customer Analysis, Information About the Owner(s), and Detailed Financial Information. back to top Do you offer any other services? Yes. In addition to An Effective Prospectus, we offer two other products, An Effective Advertisement and An Effective Cover Letter. Both of these products are designed to work with An Effective Prospectus to help you sell your business more quickly and at the best possible price. back to top Can I get printed and bound copies of my sales prospectus? Yes. This is an excellent way to make a strong impression on your potential buyers. Custom printed and bound copies cost just $10 each, plus shipping and tax. You'll also get a beautiful four-color cover on your sales prospectuses, including your business name and logo, along with custom-designed black and white contents. The document is wire bound for easy reading and reference. back to top Can I get my sales prospectus, advertisement, and cover letter on CD-ROM? Yes, all documents can be delivered to you on CD-ROM for $5 per disk, plus shipping and tax. Please note: the state of California doesn't tax information sent over the Internet. Needless to say, if you have your documents emailed, it's much more cost-effective. back to top *How do I know if An Effective Prospectus* will work?** We cannot guarantee that you'll sell your business; there are simply too many factors involved. However, we do guarantee that An Effective Prospectus will make a strong positive impression on your potential buyers. Remember, when buyers first learn about your business, the only things they have to go on are your advertising, your cover letter, and your sales prospectus. Professionally written, proofread, and formatted materials will make a superior impression every single time, generate more leads, attract quality buyers, and present your business in the best possible light. back to top

	*How do I order An Effective Prospectus?* Ordering is easy. Just complete the intake form and we'll contact you within one business day to schedule your phone intake interview at a time that's convenient for you. How does the process work? First, we evaluate your intake form and schedule a phone appointment at your earliest convenience (we do this on your schedule, not ours). After your intake interview, our staff will begin researching, writing, editing, and proofreading your sales prospectus. Five business days later, you will receive a preview copy of your sales prospectus via email or fax for approval. After you approve the preview copy, we'll deliver your final An Effective Prospectus in the format you've chosen, just one business day later. back to top How do you know what information to include in my sales prospectus? During our initial phone appointment, we conduct a detailed intake interview, asking you various questions about your business. Then we conduct our own research into your industry, local economic conditions, recent sales of similar businesses, and so on. back to top How long will the intake interview last? What will it cover? The intake interview takes about 30 minutes. During your interview, we'll go over your intake form, ask you questions about your business, and take your credit card information if you wish to make your 50% deposit by credit card. It's best if you choose a time when you'll be relatively free from distractions so you can concentrate on giving our researcher your full attention. This ensures that you get the highest quality product. back to top

	How Do I Pay? After your phone intake interview, you'll be asked for a 50% deposit for the services you've chosen. After you give us final approval of your faxed or emailed preview documents, we'll ask for the other 50% of your fee (plus shipping and tax on the CD-ROM and printed and bound copies) before final shipping or delivery. We accept checks and credit cards! back to top Why doesn't your website take credit cards? We feel it's better to review the information from your intake form and speak with you personally before asking for any payment. We want to be sure our service is right for you before you pay any money. back to top What do I get for my $499? A 30-minute phone intake interview with one of our researchers A preview copy that has been professionally researched, written, and proofread, delivered to you five business days after your intake interview Changes (if any) included to your preview copy free of charge Free email delivery in PDF format, ready to distribute and print, only one business day after we receive your approval back to top

Please see prices and delivery page for more details. back to top How will you deliver my advertisement and cover letter? If you order An Effective Advertisement and An Effective Cover Letter (recommended), these will be delivered to you in the same manner and on the same schedule as An Effective Prospectus. back to top What if I need my documents sooner than five business days? We can do that. For just $99 more we can complete your documents within three business days. Unfortunately, we can't complete the process in less than three days. back to top What happens if I want to see a second preview copy of my sales prospectus, advertisement, or cover letter before final delivery? No problem. We'll make the necessary changes and fax or email you another preview copy for your approval. Additional preview copies cost $49 for An Effective Prospectus and $20 for An Effective Advertisement or An Effective Cover Letter. These extra fees are necessary to cover our added costs. back to top

	*How did you come up with the idea for An Effective Prospectus?* It happened when Kristy Harris, our Founder and General Manager, was looking for a small enterprise to purchase. Kristy was surprised at the lack of quality in just about every sales prospectus she saw, and the light bulb went on. Realizing that small business owners simply don't have the time or expertise to put together a professionally researched, written, formatted, and proofread document, Kristy decided to develop a service to help small-business owners sell their own businesses without having to pay ridiculously high broker commissions. back to top How Do I Contact An Effective Prospectus?
