If you own a business
The fastest way to hit your business goals is to acquire another business. You can grow your business faster and sell it for more! Business acquisition wins over slow, organic growth, every time.
If you want to get into business
Skip the years of trial and error, and product testing. Buy an established business which already has an office, staff, accounting systems, marketng strategies and most importantly - cash flow
The Framework of Risk-Free Acquisition
To make any deal work, you're first going to need to find a motivated seller. This is something I go in-depth on during the The Business Acquisition QuickStart Programme.
When sourcing deals, it's important to understand that not every deal will be right for you.
Some business owners won't be open to the type of deals we're after, and that's fine. We only need to find the ones who have what I call 'Deal Possibility'.
Your job now becomes negotiating the deal, using the appropriate strategy for your situation.
On the Business Acquisition QuickStart Programme, I'm going to teach you the deal structures that I've used to buy over 100 businesses.
The 4 Acquisition Myths:
1. You Need Capital
Most of the deals I've done in my career have been without investing any of my own money.
2. You Need Good Credit
The strategies I teach don't involve you personally borrowing money, so your credit score isn't relevant.
3. You Need To Do This Full Time
By using other professionals (funded by the business you're buying), you only need a couple of hours per week.
4. You Need Experience
The majority of Business Acquisition QuickStart graduates do their first deal without having any prior experience.
