EARNING TEN TIMES MORE FROM YOUR WINDY LAND

Part II

Note: if you have already registered and are part of a Team and have your authorization code, you can continue on to the first class on forming your bank.

Forming a Team:

In the last class you learned:

  • Europe is ahead of America in terms of producing power from wind.

  • A GPP lease pays land owners 5% of gross revenue.

  • European Bankers are reaping the highest profits from American Wind Farms, often earning 50% of the gross revenue from a project.

  • American Land Owners have an opportunity to take this position and earn ten times what a lease pays.

This class is part of a series of classes provided by Gold Pact Power and partners, such as Eduhosting and KCK. KCK has written software and online class for firms such as Wadsworth/Thomson Learning and the University of Phoenix.
Part I of this class is available at www.goldpactpower.com/tentimes.html
Part II (this page) is available at www.goldpactpower.com/formteam.html
Additional classes at www.goldpactpower.com/newlease.html

We have lists of Land Owners interested in "Partnering up in Teams" with people like you.

There is no charge to join a Team and no charge to take part in a forming a bank. Before you proceed, you have to ask yourself a few questions:

  • Do you want to join a Team that is already organized? This method is best for people who want others to handle the day-to-day operations of your bank. You'll still be on the Board of Directors for your Team and will receive reports on Team Progress, but you won't have to be in the center of the action.

  • Do you want to form a Team and act as a Team Leader? This method is best for people with good organizational skills and who want to take charge of their Team. You'll need good public speaking skills and will have more work on your desk than the people you lead.

Not sure? We suggest you print the first class and have a few meetings at your local diner with other land owners, or contact us and ask any questions you and your group may have and we'll try to match you to another Team or help you form your own Team.

Need more information?

Before getting into all the details, we'd like to know:

  • Where you are.

  • What your name is.

  • Your phone number and email address.

  • And how much land you have; either to create a wind farm or to use to leverage a position into a BTUBank that funds a wind farm.

Please contact us and answer a few questions, ask a few questions and we'll be happy to provide you with an opportunity to speak to other Land Owners and Teams across America that are being formed to earn TEN TIMES the revenue of a standard wind farm lease.

Your Options: a review of the prior class

As the wind industry explodes across the Great Plains and Texas Panhandle, American Land Owners, Ranchers and Farmers are faced with a variety of options:

  1. Do I leverage my land and build my own project with the help of a "Wind" certified General Contractor? This can be the most profitable if you don't mind gambling on your ability to finance and develop the project and then run it. The biggest problem in this equation is that Wind Farms are not that profitable! Compared to a coal-fired generating station or a natural gas or nuclear facility, a typical wind farm is one of the least profitable types of generating stations. Unless your facility is employing cutting edge technology (i.e. a GPP design), profit margins are usually under 10%, which leaves little room for learning, cost overruns or mistakes: a huge risk for anyone even thinking about running or owning their own generating station - especially a wind farm.

    This method can produce the highest profits, but does bring along an enormous amount of risk.

    Additionally, capital requirements to build a typical wind farm are generally out of reach of "Mr. and Mrs. Average Farmer or Rancher". The average project size at GPP is over $400,000,000 and unless you have a lot of capital, its unlikely a project you attempt on your own will be cost-effective or affordable: you're probably going to have to form a Team to develop a project of any reasonable size.

  2. Do I lease my land to a wind farm developer and take a lease royalty payment? This option is the most common and an easy way out. Land Owners used to receive a low 1/2 to 1 1/2 percent royalty based on gross profits. Gold Pact Power was the first firm to offer ten times that - a full 5 percent - and then double it to 10 percent after debt service on the turbines is complete, which is in 10 - 15 years.

    We still pay the highest lease rates in the industry: we support our land owners and local communities and always will! For example, a 2,500 acre parcel with 100 turbines on it would earn the land owner about $1,500,000 - $2,500,000 under a GPP lease. Make sure you do the math at www.goldpactpower.com/math.html and compare lease royalty rates before signing a lease with anyone.

  3. What if you could combine option A and option B to create the most profitable plan?

    Working with BTUWorldBank (www.btuworldbank.com) and using the GPP-MTN method (note - an authorization code is required to view that free class), Land Owners across the nation are learning an "Inside Trick" to profiting from wind power: become the bank.

    This method is the most profitable of all, combines the high Return on Investment (ROI) of option A, while eliminating both high risks related to financing and capital, and all of the risks of owning and operating your own wind farm. For Land Owners with smaller acreage, this option is probably your only choice. Most investors won't even look at parcels under 5,000 acres. The GPP MTN method helps owners of smaller parcels "Partner Up" with others people just like you, forming Teams that charter a bank.

    BTUWorldBank provides the structure and GPP provides both the projects and the development, construction and operating engineers.

Comparisons:

While you may wish to attempt option A, the ROI of option A isn't as high as option C, which doesn't have most of the risks of option A.

ROI comparison:

  • Option A: 7% - 20%.

  • Option B: 5% of gross revenue received by a developer leasing your land. Investment is the cost of the land itself.

  • Option C: 200% - 1000%.

Revenue comparison (based on 2,500 acres):

  • Option A: $2,500,000 - $5,000,000 per year

  • Option B: $1,500,000 - $2,500,000 per year

  • Option C: $20,000,000 - $30,000,000 per year

Clearly option C is the most profitable, but it also involves some 'organizational' skills and "ability to get along with others" - primarily your fellow Team members who are generally other Land Owners.

For Land Owners interested in the highest Return on Investment, the GPP MTN method (option C) reduces risks and provides the highest ROI - TEN TIMES THE REVENUE OF EITHER OPTION A OR B!

Support:

Land Owners who have a wind farm lease with Gold Pact Power and Investors funding GPP projects, can simply ask for free support as they walk through the step-by-step process with attorneys, bank and credit union formation and SEC compliance advisors. The end-result is your Team will charter your own financial institution, you own 100% of the stock and thereafter enjoy the benefits of the highest revenue stream and least risk, and an ROI of 200% - 1000% per year.

Partners:

With the inclusion of the GPP-MTN program under both BTUWorldBank and the classes at KWHExchange (www.kwhexchange.com), we are providing Land Owners, Investors and Utilities with the financial tools to "accelerate the global transition to renewable energy by making it profitable!"

We invite you to contact us today to learn more about how to increase your revenue through formation of your wind farm related corporation.

A review of the Risks:

  • All initial capital is return in the first year. Thereafter, your Team has no invested capital or risk, yet you enjoy revenue thast lasts for up to 99 years!

  • There is no negative cash flow or cash out of pocket.

  • Investment can be as little as $25,000 or as much as $5,000,000 - $50,000,000 or more.

  • Original Investment is collateralized at a 5 to 1 or up to 40 to 1 rate.

  • Investment is bonded and insured: if the project or process fails you receive all of your capital back.

  • Investment is held in a bank account you control: there are no 'third-parties' with their hands out for your money. No speculative hedge funds, trading platforms, CDOs or other 'gambles'.

  • 100% Transparent: you control the flow of capital through your Team's Audits and Oversight. This can be handled by you personally, or your Team's CPA and attorney, who review every aspect of the development, financing and operations.

  • Since capital is returned quickly, you can easily re-invest and/or receive distributed earnings for other 'goals and projects' in your own life.

Conclusions:

The benefits and low risk of option C outweigh both the returns and the 'gamble' you take with option A, and increase your revenue by TEN TIMES over option B. Before signing a wind farm lease with anyone, anywhere, DO THE MATH and think about both your future and the future of your children and community.

Gold Pact Power was created to help Land Owners keep their land in their families for generations and we designed our programs and classes (like this page) to insure Land Owners and Investors alike, benefit from the exploding wind power industry.

Your next step: - the coffee shop meeting.

Many Land Owners begin the process of 'organizing' their Teams with people they already know. Print this page, make a few copies and then contact us and tell us when you're having your next 'Coffee Club' meeting at a local diner. We'll be happy to answer questions over a 'speaker phone' for the group and help you and your neighbors and communities form your own Teams to take advantage of the revenue available to you from wind power.

If you'd rather partner up with Land Owners who are already in our system, please let us know when you write.

Thank you.
