...without taking a taxable distribution or incurring penalties

Guidant has helped thousands of entrepreneurs achieve their dreams of business ownership by tapping an often overlooked source of debt-free financing – their retirement funds. By utilizing Guidant’s 401(k) Small Business Financing plan, new business owners can launch their enterprise with minimal (if any) debt while securing significant tax benefits for their company.

SAVE MONEY This program allows you to utilize up to 100% of the funds in your retirement plan to purchase a business as an investment, thus avoiding a taxable distribution, paying penalties or incurring interest from loans.

LOWER BUSINESS OVERHEAD By using retirement funds instead of debt to buy your business, you can use the initial cash flow generated to invest in new initiatives rather than spending it in the form of interest payments.

INcREASE SUccESS RATE A business which carries less overhead from reduced debt payments has more capital available to invest back into the company. This increases business success and accelerates growth.

ELIMINATE PERSONAL LIABILITY When your retirement funds are used for financing, you do not have to pledge your home or personal credit as collateral as you do for most loans.

ENJOY TAX-DEFERRED SAVINGSAs your business grows, you can defer significant income back into your retirement plan – potentially saving you thousands of dollars in taxes and growing your retirement funds.

INVEST IN YOURSELF Unlike taking risks in the volatile stock market, funding your business with retirement funds is an investment in yourself – one that you can count on!
