Re: [WISPA] Selling ISP
If you have no money and at that point you have nothing to lose. Selling means cash. My 2cents worth!!

The #1 question asked to be answered is how bad do you want to sell. That doesn't apply just to being a WISPbut buying a house, a boat, a stake in something...many things. Some of us really like fire sells. Others of us will work really hard to make a deal happen if someone really needs to sell. If you don't need to sell but are just shopping, that's something entirely different. I've read a few books on the matter and actually learned quite a bit from WISPA shows on this topic. Nothing like putting a few bites out there that you might be interested in buying someone - so when they're actually tired of it - you're in a position to start wheeling and dealing with them., - Original Message - From: Matt Hoppes mailto:mhop...@indigowireless.com To: WISPA General List mailto:wireless@wispa.org Cc: can...@believewireless.net Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2014 7:44 AM Subject: Re: [WISPA] Selling ISP Cash is king.

The short answer to those on this list: If your business attorney or CPA is telling you “Always do cash deals” or “Never use seller financing,” then thank them for their time and find someone else to advise you who is comfortable advising sellers on a full range of options, guiding them to the best ones, and is including the right protections for you. The longer answer: Here’s why we’re on the same page. The first question is not “Is the offer 100% cash?” but “Why am I selling?” The second question is “What do I want out of the sale?” That’s what you’re doing below. A couple people have expressed concern about getting the business back if something goes wrong. There are many ways to structure that deal so as to greatly minimize the time or expense of getting the business back, as I’ve mentioned elsewhere. Your concern is getting out entirely. There are many ways to structure that deal. 100% cash is one way to do it. Another that I mentioned during the course of this is through an annuity (which you have the option of selling to get cash or keeping to get the higher payments, according to your risk tolerance). You can do sweep accounts where the bank guarantees that you get paid first as money comes in coupled with business insurance options. The deal structure that might work best for you will depend first on your goals as a seller, second on your buyer, and finally on your risk tolerance. Saying “I’ll only take 100% cash” is definitely an option, and sometimes the best one, but it’s never the only one. If you have an advisor locking you into an all-cash deal, that’s a sign that he or she may not be the best advisor for you. I’ll even bet that they’re probably missing things even in that all-cash deal they’re drawing up for you. If anyone here on the list ever wants some confidential guidance on how to structure a deal, language to put in an agreement, or about sales/purchases generally, I’m happy to help share what I can and get you pointed to the right advisor (attorney, CPA, whoever) to help (and I’ll be happy to contribute to the employment piece of whatever deal you do).

The last thing I'd want to do is go through the enter sale process only to have to take the company back at a later date. Even if I was able to get my company back immediately months later with zero customer loss, the time, effort and lost growth just aren't worth the risk in my opinion.

Re: [WISPA] WR ccu 3100
Chris, I would have to check with the tech's, but I believe that is the same one we are using. With the same problem. WR, said it was everything but the unit, we ordered another one and doing the same thing. We have changed everything at the site and it is still doing it. I will double check, they are at the tower today, so I don't like to bother them when climbing. Maybe we can get something done with WR (Vecima) if we stick together with the same problem. That is a total of 5 units doing the same thing. Surely they will have to help more than they have. All we have gotten is a runaround so far..

Re: [WISPA] Water Tower Mounts
Carl We used one from Tessco that has a collar that bolts around the vent on top of tank and adjustable legs for leveling.It has been up there 4 years with no problems.It was easy to install approx 1hour.

I have successfully used magnets on a couple of towers for 2 years now... I don't completely trust them, so I also run a safety cable around the mast and anchor it to a solid projection on the tower so that if the magnets did turn loose, the mast wouldn't hit the ground, but in two years, and through several thunderstorms and pretty good winds, the magnets haven't shifted a bit that I can see. -- John Vogel - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.vogent.net 620-754-3907 Vogel Enterprises, LLC Information Services Provider serving S.E.

We seen the need for speed and then starting offering DSL as well. We were hesitant about going wireless because of the many hills and trees in our area.

Re: [WISPA] Walmart RFID update
I did not mention broadband reports,they found it on their own.I was unaware that one of our partners was posting there asking for input on the problem.They didnt mention this thread,maybe haven't discovered it yet.We sure were relieved when they called and acted sincere about resolving the problem.I will post the contact info here when we meet with their rep.That way if the problem shows up in your neighborhood you will know who to call without spending days trying to get to the right person.Never underestimate the power of the internet or press.

[WISPA] Walmart RFID update
Hello Everyone Wanted to update you on our walmart rfid problem.We spent hours on monday trying to talk to someone on their rfid deployment team,we finally made contact.We were informed that it used the whole spectrum,had to run at full power and used circular polarity.They stated they were operating within the legal limits and could not change anything to help with our interference problem.I ask if they could turn off their equipment for 30 days to give us a chance to relocate to a new site.They agreed to two weeks which suprised me.When they turned it off all of our links instantly went back to working including the one inside their store at the eye doctors office.We start looking for a new site and equipment to install on it.Well today walmart calls us and say they want to work with us on the problem and they are sending a engineer to this store to check for a possible rogue piece of equipment and possibly trying to place some type of schielding between them and us IF we will QUIT posting info about this problem on broadband reports forum.I am amazed that they changed their whole attitude because of a little bad pr.Maybe we will be able to find a solution to the problem now that they seem willing to cooperate.Again thanks to everone who offered their advice on the situation.

[WISPA] walmart rfid
Hello List We have an interference problem come up this week that we have been unable to resolve.Hopefully someone here has some input on how to resolve it.The problem is walmart installed a rfid scanning system at there loading dock which instantly raised the noise floor at our 900 mhz waverider access point by 20 db which killed about 30 of our weakest links.this equipment is operating across the whole band so there is no way to change channels and get away from it.The walmart store manager says its not his problem and refuses to call the company that installed it .I called the company which is adt security and they refuse to do anything unless walmart request it.walmart home office will not return my calls and the regional manager actually hung up on me and will not take calls from us now.We have been very polite with them upto this point and gave them no reason to act like jerks.Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this problem?

Re: [WISPA] walmart rfid
Travis Thanks for the input .that is a possible solution but not one that could be implemented quickly or easily.It would require a new Hpol omni about $2200 a climb to install it and a trip to about 100 customers home to change their eum antenna to h pol.This may be how it gets resolved but really all we need to to do is have them turn the power down on their equipment which only needs to reach 100 ft or the area of their loading dock.or drop to a 5or 10 mhz channel that is not on our freq of 918.4.It would be a simple problem to resolve if we could get any cooperation from walmart.Any ideas on how how we could create interference to their system to get their attention.I realize this is not the proper way to resolve the problem but it might encourge them to be better rf neighbors maybe.

[WISPA] Walmart
Hey All We really appreciate you taking the time to offer your ideas on how to resolve our problem.We have decided that switching to Hpol and sectors will be our fastest and cheapest way to resolve the issue which in the long run is probally a good idea to avoid future problems.We may try some of the legal and publicity suggestions that were mentioned,but in the short term it looks like walmart wins.By the way we are located approx 2000 ft LOS from their docks.again thanks for all the advice.
