[QUOTE="DentMania, post: 278305, member: 20300"] Jason, I see you have enough knowlgade and experience in business acquisition however I think thats not all you need to apply in dental technology. To me dense area means lot of opportunities which gives technicians lots of options to choose from, stability and lower cost of services we use. For instance there is no way you can ship the case to doctor or back to the lab within the same county for under $7 or you can even combine two boxes in one shipping which brings the cost of shipping down to $3.5 per case if you are not in dense area like Los Angeles. And this was just one example of benefit. Yes, I agree If I could of sell books of accounts I would of ask $1.5M and definitely not 200k I have no relationship to my accounts and I think no one needs to have any. We just need to know what we are doing . I know what I am doing and I am willing to sell my lab to someone who knows what he/she is doing. I do not believe in “Key persons“ but I do believe in quality of final product the lab should meet. I also believe any technician can get in to it within a couple of months if he/she willing to do so. I am willing to stay and train my system for those who are interested. I do not agree with your following statement “ if key person goes the customers goes too. Therefore an acquirer will not count on that revenue continuing if they are smart.” If acquirer is smart and knows what he is doing , open to learn few things during the transition then there is no reason for customer to go or bother himself in finding place to go. Doctors hate to change labs , they do it when they do not have any other options. Unless there are noticeable changes in quality and seller of the lab will be involved in another lab and offering same services for the same price . This is not my intention . I am entirely changing the field of business and ready to sign a document under penalty of perjury that I will never ever contact any accounts I did business with after I sell. Yes, There is a patent pending under my name within dental technology but it has nothing to do with the lab process I have in place and there is no way the intellectual property be included in the aforementioned asking price . Re: equipment or lab setup: Let me not agree with your statement of 15 or 25 cents per dollar for used equipment. I can get you a list of equipment I will be interested to buy unlimited for 50 cent per dollar and I bet won’t be able to get me any. How about setting it up for a smooth operation ? Does it have a value or not ? I am sorry but from your post I have a feeling you do not have technical background or even if you had any it was not deep enough to know important details in dental technology. It appears you believe more in branding then the actual product and true value which comes with it. For instance Lava equipment you have mentioned in your post : Do you know that Lava mill is nothing else then Primacon CNC machine ? I am sure need to go through lot of research on that to get it but just to save your time, Primacon is German company who build CNC mills for companies specializing in space engineering or Swiss watch makers . [URL]http://primacon.de[/URL] This mill built to last with the highest quality of standards , try to compare it with today’s branded mills from china that brake apart in few months. Or Did you know that Lava scanner is nothing else then fine German piece of fine optical equipment made by Stainbichler ( Zeiss Optotechnik ) , with 5 micron scanning accuracy , blue strip light technology ? [URL]http://optotechnik.zeiss.com/produkte/3d-digitalisierung[/URL] The cost of scanners they make and sell starts from over $100k . Try to compare it with plastic crap you buy as a result of branded advertisement. Or Did you know that Lava sintering oven is nothing else then German made Dekema Austromat uSIC ? [URL]http://jensendental.com/products/dekema-austromat-isic/[/URL] Try to call Jensen and ask quotes today then redo your entire math. In most cases success comes just by thinking outside of the box. Anyways , I think initially my post were not addressed to Jason but for those who are interested to know “ How much does it cost to set up a new C/B lab “ and I am definitely offering great alternative despite Jason’s arguments. Interested technicians should call or text me direct T. ( 818) 406- 5006 [/QUOTE]
