Anyone ever sell a business model? How did you go about it?
To answer the obvious questions. I have came across a system that allowes me to double an investment every 7 days. I have been using it for three months. There is more to it then just an investment though, there is work involved. So far without fail I will at leat double my investment ever 7 days.
I know that other people could benefit from this but I dont know if it is worth trying to sell or not.
Any advice?

No, I wish. I am talking a diffrent investment ever 7 days. If I only have 50 to invest. I end up with 100. The next week I may only have 30 to invest. I am not talking huge numbers here.

Not the point. My reason for posting was asking how to go about selling a business model. And to find out if it is even worth the time to try and do.

Or you could patent your business model, and sue anyone who tries to use it for even greater profits!

I do not even know if anyone out there is already using it. I have done some research and came up with nothing. But with my luck it may already be in use.

So why not re-invest the money? Just start with $10, then in one year you will have $4.5*10^16, and be the richest person in the world...

Nearly spit out my coffee after reading that :D

You're saying that you can easily double an investment, but the investment vehicle can never be the same thing in order for it to work?

Like I said I have only been using this for 3 months, and working with small amounts of money. There will come a point where the amount of work/money invested will be to much to physically do. But at least it will get to that point. Its hard to explain without going into details.

Easily yes. But the more money invested the more work is involved. a $100 investment will require about 6 hours of work. There is work involved. It is not just put in the money and wait.

So you'd make $100 bucks with 6 hours of work? That's not bad money, but if it scales up linearly, you aren't getting rich either.

Exactly! I am making money, but by no means the kind of money the people in the above posts where suggesting.

No, nothing even close to that. Investment is in a specific item. Bought from wherever. Not a specific person or business. Nothing illigal, nothing shady.

Well, you put the money in yourself. You do the work yourself. The more you put in the more work you end up doing and the more you earn.

I used to sell business models. I had one that looked good draped over a Xerox printer - she sold a lot of toner.

So it's a job, you just get to pick your own hours.

That being said, feel free to share as I have some free time :p

Thats less than $17 an hour. I don't see how there would be a big market for a plan with those numbers.
I'd advise selling it the way all the get rich quick schemes are sold, advertise. Offer to sell your ?amazing? plan for only $19.95. If it really works, so much the better.

Without a lot more research I have no idea how much I would sell it for.
