The American College Dictionary definition of an entre-
preneur is - "one who undertakes to carry out any enter-
prise."

A number of candidates with whom we interface have established successful technical and managerial ca-
reers, and now wish to take the next step toward own- ing a business. Fergason Associates' long time inter- action with professionals has shown we understand the entrepreneurial mind, thereby enabling us to provide counsel and introductions for those wishing to launch new enterprises.

One primary solution to many an entrepreneurial need is to acquire, or propose to acquire, an existing busi-
ness with a history of profitability; and this act opens the doors to potential investors and funding institutions.

Fergason Associates, Inc. (teamonefinancial) can pro-
vide the required parts of a proposed enterprise, wheth-
er it be locating a suitable available company, or a
funding source.

Depending upon the characteristics of a subject enter-
prise, we know which group of high net worth investors might be favorably inclined to consider an equity in-
vestment, and may work with an entrepreneur on terms he or she will find acceptable.  In another case we may suggest one of a number of asset based lenders known to us.  In yet another situation, the entrepreneur's tech-
nical knowledge may prompt us to introduce a well matched manufacturer to "partner" with our client in a joint venture advantageous to both parties.

The intermediary services of Fergason Associates can prove to be very beneficial to aspiring entrepreneurs.
