A Market on the Verge of an Explosion...

THE FACTS:$11 Trillion worth of businesses will be sold by baby boomers

A $4 Billion a Year Private Annuity Trust Industry Disappears

76 Million Baby Boomers Are Nearing Retirement

12 Million Private Businesses Are Owned By Baby Boomers

How do you plan on grabbing your piece of thelargest appreciated asset mass exit in U.S. history?

Dear fellow professional advisor,

In the next 25 years the U.S. will see the largest and most affluent generation in history move from their income phase to their retirement phase.

Some say this is the “perfect storm” when it comes to opportunities for professionals in the financial, real estate, health, vacation, and various other industries.

Baby Boomers will begin to exit their highly-appreciated real estate and businesses and transfer those assets into other financial vehicles that will best help them to live the lifestyle they want to live during retirement.

Already, we have seen the beginnings of this market explosion start to take shape. Sellers by the thousands are seeking information and advice on how to best exit their highly-appreciated assets and transfer that wealth into something that can help them reach their financial and lifestyle goals during retirement.

As you know, no one strategy will fit the needs of ALL sellers. So... it is your obligation as a professional advisor to equip yourself with a variety of strategies, each tailored to help your client accomplish a specific set of goals.

In this impending market explosion, the professional advisors who position themselves as the experts who can best meet their clients’ needs, will succeed.

Will you be one of the few who will choose to rise up as the expert in your area?

With the help of the Exit Advisors Affiliate Program™... YOU CAN!Read on...

Capturing YOUR Share of the Market...

“$10 trillion wealth transfer over the next 18 years into the hands of the baby boomers.”Forbes Magazine

“...planners who only think about wealth accumulation will miss their piece of this $40 trillion pie today and in the future.”Insurance Journal

How Will You Capture Your Share of the Market?

“5 percent of all baby boomers own at least one vacation home...”Realtor.org

“the number of baby boomers who are planning retirement will hit a record number in 2011 and stay strong for another 10 or 11 years...”EconSouth

“57 % of Americas vacation homes are owned by babyboomers...”Licensed Realtor - Sarasota Experience

With the massive growth of the exit planning and wealth transfer markets, you need to position yourself for successright now.

There are two schools of thought on how to become an expertin your area and capture more market share:

Pick one or two strategies and specialize - Specialization places you as an expert in your area of specialty and people look to you when your specialty fits their needs perfectly.

Become a Full Service firm with various solutions and options for sellers -

Often these firms are seen more as comprehensive planners who can solve their clients needs, whatever those needs are.

Either method you choose to capture market share, youneed to have a solid solution for the ever growing groupof sellers looking for the following benefits:

> Capital gains tax deferral

> Safe; secure stream of GUARANTEED income

> 100% safety

Do you have a solid and safe strategy that helps sellers reach ALL of the goals above?

Odds are... YOU DON’T

» Control over their asset » To liquidate their real estate holdings

» A guaranteed return » To pass on assets to their heirs

» Reduction of estate taxes » To put their retirement in a safe place

» A high yield » To fulfill charitable desires

... and that is only a partial list!

The Ensured Installment SAle™

What is the Ensured Installment Sale™?

The Ensured Installment Sale™ is a capital gains tax deferral strategy that enables the sellers of highly appreciatedassets such as real estate and businesses to collect fully customizable installment payments GUARANTEED by a Fortune 50 life insurance company. Currently, Allstate Life and Prudential Life offer the Structured Sale annuity, although more insurance companies are planning to enterthis growing market.

This strategy was developed by Allstate Insurance in 2005 and has become more and more popular... ... even garnering attention from the Wall Street Journal andother top authorities in the tax and financial world.

One of the nation's top tax attorneys, Robert W. Wood - Wood and Porter San Fransisco, has written several widely- read articles on the Structured Sale which speak extremely positively of this strategy from a tax standpoint.

IMAGE HERE

Ensured Installment Sales™ are nothing like the now defunct Private Annuity Trust. The Ensured Installment Sale™ actually follows the IRS guidelines... rather than tramples over them like the PAT.

In essence, the seller sells his asset to a cash and/or financed buyer... and is able to defer his or her capital gains tax (for as long as they want!) and collect a GUARANTEED stream of income (that the seller helps design!) that is 100% backed by the Fortune 50 Life Insurance company. You can't get awhole lot saferthan that!

Basically, the seller gets all of the benefits of an installment sale... WITHOUT THE RISK of buyer default!

Better yet... it usually doesn't cost the seller, buyer, professional advisor, etc. anything at all to use this strategy. No ongoing maintenance fees, no set up fees, NONE.

Can you imagine actually offering your client a strategy that truly doesn't cost them anything... but that you still earn a nice profit from?

What is the Exit Advisors Affiliate Program™?

The Exit Advisors Affiliate Program™ is an affiliation between Settlement Professionals Inc., a national structured annuity specialist, and you – the professional advisor to offer the Ensured Installment Sale™ to your clients coupled with the industry's best service and support from SPI.

By joining the Exit Advisors Affiliate Program™ you are choosing to equip yourself with one of the newest and most effective tools for deferring capital gains tax, providing a guaranteed stream of income ... not to mention the many other benefits it offers.

The Affiliate program enables you to offer this strategy to your clients and earn large commissions indoing so.

For instance, for a $1,000,000 annuity, you can earn up to $30,000. With the average size of these transactions being between $500,000 and $1,000,000... these commissions can really add a nice income stream to your current business.

To this date, the largest Ensured Installment Sale™ transaction through one of the annuity issuers is around $8,000,000 (that's up to a $240,000 commission!). The reason for the top transaction of around $8,000,000 is because of the "Special Interest" rule that charges the seller on capital gains deferrals of over $5,000,000 an interest penalty for every dollar over the $5,000,000 mark. For this reason, the Ensured Installment Sale™ is most effective for deferrals of $5,000,000 or less... which is an extremely large and ever growing market.

So, why can't you just work directly through the annuity issuer rather than working with us?

The annuities used in these transactions are structured annuities borrowed from the Structured Settlement industry. They run by different rules than normal annuities and require a certain designation and series of training to offer them.

As of now, there are less than 30 companies in the entire U.S. (SPI is among the top in the industry) that qualify and are designated to offer these annuities directly from the annuity issuers... and less than 500 industry professionals within these companies.

Until now, no one outside of these companies can offer the Ensured Installment Sale™ and earn commissions this high. The Exit Advisors Affiliate Program was created to enable professional advisorsto transact the Ensured Installment Sale™ through our company... and earn most of the commission generated by the annuity placement.

After all, why should your client have to work with us rather than you to use this strategy?

... we don't think they should.
