Rob Rowsell shares how to build a successful company from the ground up. Rob built a multi-shop auto repair business and invested his wealth wisely. Eventually, he cashed out and sold his business, transitioning to a passive residual income. Here’s how he did it.
Build A Successful Company – Step By Step To An Extraordinary Business
Rob starts out the discussion by introducing us to a five point strategy to build a successful company. This takes in all of the phases, from purchasing the business all the way to cashing out and retiring into a new life post-ownership. Here are Rob’s steps to business success:
Intelligently Invest Your Active Income
Congratulations! You now own a business. Chances are you are working the counter and doing other jobs as you establish the systems and processes your employees will follow. Ideally, others will handle all of the day to day operations once you are more established. Meanwhile, you need to be socking away whatever cash you can from your active income. Opportunities will come along to increase that income as your business grows. As your income increases, your investments should, too. Rob goes into great detail about those investment opportunities in our monthly Zoom meetings. Are you serious about growing wealth as you build a successful company?

Pay Yourself Tax Efficiently
There are many tax benefits to owning your own business. You must pay yourself first, but don’t take chances. Make sure you consult with your CPA regularly to find legal tax advantages. The more money you can keep, the more you can invest.
Build a Successful Company by Using Active Income to Build Your Net Worth
Your business is an active income machine. It’s easy to keep escalating your lifestyle as the money rolls in, but avoid going overboard! A few Community members also have worked in the auto repair industry, and can attest that it is a great bang for buck investment. When you purchase and renovate an automotive shop, the revenue will soon pay you back.
Grow Your Company’s Value
Business growth is always an unrealized gain. Therefore, it is extremely tax efficient. Over time, you could very well 10x the value of your business from the purchase price over the years. This could be done by opening more locations and finding new revenue streams. You will not take a tax hit on the value of that business until you eventually put the business up for sale.
Transition to Passive Residual Income Over Time – The Final Step to Build a Successful Company
There are many opportunities to invest your active income. If you play the money game right, you can eventually replace your active income with regular passive residual income. Eventually, that means you can retire and live off of mailbox money derived from your investments. Remember, to build a successful company is only one part of the financial journey. The end goal is to eventually work yourself out of a job!
