Most people hear about spectacular acquisitions made by strategic acquirers or giant private equity groups. But the reality is, you’re likely to sell your company to a small business in your sector that nobody outside your industry has ever heard of.  In our latest episode of Built to Sell Radio, part of our Inside the Mind of an Acquirer series, we get inside the head of Kristi Herold. Kristi is the founder of JAM, a company based in Toronto that connects people through adult recreational sports leagues and corporate team-building events.  Kristi has successfully completed 11 acquisitions, making her a prime example of how small businesses buy other small companies.  You’ll discover how to:  Understand what small business acquirers look for in potential acquisition targets. Learn the key steps one small business owner uses to prepare for an acquisition. Recognize the deal structures small acquirers use to ensure favorable terms. Protect your interests when selling to another small business owner. https://lnkd.in/eY-hXHUR

More buyers than sellers In the RIA space. We have all heard this.... But where are all the buyers? We are seeing PE firms and roll ups dominate acquisitions By a LANDSLIDE. We beleive there aren't enough next generation entrepreneurial firm owners. Owners with the clarity, confidence and capability to really step in from an acquisition standpoint in a meaningful way. That's what we are building. Owners of the future.

Knowing when to sell your business is a question many ask. But strangely enough, some business owners don't even realize that their business is actually an asset they can sell. Just like a stock is partial ownership in a pubic company you can sell. Your own business is an asset you might be able to sell. The guys at Peterson Acquisitions are two professionals who work in Kansas City, Lawrence, Topeka and all parts of the State of KS. So, listen, watch and learn from these two guys.

How Did I Successfully Navigate My First Business Acquisition? Answers: https://lnkd.in/gMt3qbMR #Acquisition #BusinessGrowth #EntrepreneurJourney Hey there! I wanted to share my journey into the world of business acquisitions and how it all started for me. 🚀 In October 2019, I decided to dive into acquiring existing businesses instead of starting something new from scratch. I purchased Ryan Kulp's really insightful course on acquiring businesses. It really lit a fire under me! 🔥 While I had a couple of projects I built myself, they weren't seeing any revenue, and I was eager to work with something that actually worked. Fast forward to July 2024, when one of my favorite developers, Michael Lynch, announced he was selling his site, Is It Keto. I couldn’t resist! I filled out the application and was honest about my excitement, even mentioning my interest in working with him, even for a small stint. I made a $2k offer and crossed my fingers. Guess what? 🥳 Michael picked me! I was over the moon and we kicked off the process. The first thing I did was wire the money to Escrow.com, which felt surreal. Now, here's where it got a bit tricky: Escrow.com slowed ...

Distressed businesses are not usually advisable acquisitions for the first-time business buyer. Well today's guest flouted that convention — and was rewarded for it. Ben Rizzo bought a 4th-generation, 90-year-old elevator servicing business in Pittsburgh. The business was in the red, but when Ben took a close look at it, he jumped. We spend time on how he got comfortable doing that, his analysis. It's a lesson in looking beyond the P&L and reaching to understand the intrinsic value of a business. This interview is also a lesson in how to effect a successful turnaround. Ben shares in detail what was ailing the business and the cures he prescribed. How he quickly got the team on board for dramatic changes. How crucial the mutual trust between him & the seller was. How crucial recurring revenue was. And how, just 2 years later, he'd not only stabilized but doubled the business *and*... ...found a buyer, resulting in a life-changing outcome. We also get into what Ben has done since, including diving in again as an owner-operator of another business in Pittsburgh. And potentially another in the months ahead. Which would make him something of an *accidental* holdco entrepreneur. (Because he was not an aspiring holdco guy, and he speaks plainly about the pros & cons of that model.) Lots & lots in this interview with Ben Rizzo, former owner of Hadfield Elevator 👇 👇 👇

Owning and acquiring businesses is not just a career—it's my lifestyle. I’ve spent 20 years running a business that I started by accident. In 2021, I decided to dive into business acquisitions, and let me tell you, it’s a marathon, not a sprint. Building relationships, making cautious decisions, and navigating through family obligations, running multiple businesses, and other spinning plates—it’s a path that requires persistence, not a quick win. What I know is that business acquisition isn’t just about being your own boss; it’s about adapting to challenges, developing long-term strategies, and knowing when to step back and assess. Every day brings something new, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. If you’re considering buying a business, remember, it’s not just about ownership—it's about understanding if this path fits your life and ambitions. Let’s chat if you’re ready to explore how business ownership could fit into your world. #BusinessPath #EntrepreneurLife #BusinessAcquisition #StrategicGrowth #FamilyBusiness #VeteranEntrepreneur #LongTermSuccess #BusinessMentorship
