Business Buying Strategies from The Dealmaker's Academy

This year, we have featured more business buying success stories than ever before.

Buying a business transforms your life. You just need to hear the stories of those who have follow the system and taken action to know that you can do it, too.

The stories we have featured on the Business Buying Strategies podcast range from experienced business owners using acquisitions to rapidly grow their business to individuals holding down a 9-5 job who transformed their life by buying a business in their spare time.

In the latest episode of Business Buying Strategies, we look back at some of the major client wins and business buying success stories from the last 12 months.

2023 has been a great year for business buying entrepreneurs. But 2024 promises to be even better.

If you are thinking about acquiring a business in 2024 and want to feel inspired, listen to this episode and discover how people – just like you – transformed their lives by buying a business.

Here are the key highlights:

How Alison acquired a business in a sector she knew little about (and saved £100,000 on a bad deal, thanks to her Mastermind group)

How David tried to grow his business organically for years yet added more revenue in one "no money down" deal than he achieved in 12 months

How Darren built a group of profitable hair salons without spending any of his own money (and one owner even paid him £20,000 to take the business off her hands)

How Dan successfully acquired an eight-figure business without using any of his own funds

How Danny acquired businesses in sectors he knew nothing about by following a proven business buying system (which is entirely possible when you shift away from an "operator" mindset)

What limiting beliefs hold you back from starting your business buying journey? What stops you from doing more deals or striving to close bigger acquisitions?

If you want to succeed at business acquisition, you need the right mindset as well as the right knowledge and strategies. By levelling up your mindset and adopting a new way of thinking, you can change how you see yourself and how others see you, to do bigger deals, more frequently.

At the last Dealmakers Retreat, executive coach Vicki Espin revealed how to develop a 'game-changer' mindset to stand out and attract opportunities. In this episode of the Business Buying Strategies podcast, you can listen to highlights from the presentation, including an exercise to write a professional brand statement to attract dealmaking opportunities to you.

Here are the key highlights:

• Your most important relationship in life
• Understanding 'Moments of Truth"
• Your current performance = your potential minus your interference

• Your top signature strengths

Here is what you will discover…

• What is a game-changer mindset and why you need to adopt a new way of thinking to shift where you are right now

• Why the most important relationship you have in your life is with yourself

• Why you need to figure out what you want people to say about you when you're not "in the room"

• Why nothing in your life changes unless you do this ONE thing

• Why you need to pay attention to your emotional intelligence to close more deals

• The No.1 thing that nearly every conversation about personal brand completely ignores (that you can use to your advantage)

• The secret to crafting a compelling personal brand statement (it's not just through practice)

• Why your non-verbal behaviour counts for far more than you may realise

• How to use a scoring system to continually improve your brand statement (or any pitch or presentation document)

How to grow a business through acquisition

In this week's episode of Business Buying Strategies, Jonathan speaks with BBC Apprentice winner and founder of the Millionaire Mastermind, Joseph Valente about the opportunity for business owners to rapidly double the size of their business through acquisition.

In conversation in front of a room of ambitious entrepreneurs, Jonathan explained why 2024 is a year of opportunity for those business owners who want to grow, why it is better to buy a big business for your first deal and how to avoid the pitfalls experienced by many first-time dealmakers.

If you're a business owner and you're frustrated or impatient for growth, you need to listen to this episode.

Here are the key highlights:

00:51 - Jonathan's accidental entry into the world of mergers and acquisitions

01:22 - How Jonathan had an epiphany when he sold his first business

02:14 - Why being the operator in a business is not the best way to get the result you want

02:27 - How to get a great deal when buying a competitor business

04:13 - Why you should never cut corners on your deal team (easily avoidable legal and due diligence issues are so much more expensive in the long run)

04:29 - Why the "Buy, Build and Sell" strategy is the fastest way to achieve your financial goals

04:47 How just one successful deal can transform your business – and your life

05:16 The 3 keep questions to ask when assessing any business acquisition

10:29 Jonathan's top advice for anyone looking to start acquiring businesses

19:16 Why you must always be through in your due diligence when buying a business

30:54 Why it's a good strategy to keep the previous owner on-side (it can get really messy if you don't)

33:30 How Jonathan helps business owners to acquire the right businesses to grow

Here is what you will discover…

• Why it is better to buy a £2.5m business for your first deal rather than a £250k business (as one of my Mastermind clients did)

• How to quickly assess whether a deal is worth pursuing by asking 3 key questions

• How to use the tactics of experienced M&A dealmakers to close your own acquisitions using none of your own funds

• Why your mindset is the biggest obstacle to acquiring a business (regardless of whether you're experienced in business or completely new to it)

• How to fund your deal through the existing owner of a business

• Why you don't need to worry about your personal credit rating or need to have available funds to buy your first business

• Why future dealmakers need to be ready ahead of January 2024 if they want to secure the best deals available
• Why you need to discover the seller's "real" motivation for selling (and it's usually nothing to do with money)

I waited too long to get started… but then I bought a £2.5m business

In this latest episode of Business Buying Strategies, we visit a Mastermind client, Carsten, at the £2.5m revenue tree surgery business he recently purchased.

By his own admission, Carsten was a little slow getting out the blocks, as he previously believed he needed funds to acquire a business. He joined our FastTrack programme and saw other dealmakers buying profitable, established businesses with no money down.

After joining Mastermind, Carsten followed our business buying system and took six months to buy his first business. In the episode, we go behind the scenes with Carsten to discover how the deal was put together and the reality of owning rather than operating a business.

Here are the key highlights:

00:00 – Why he chose to buy a £2.5m business as his first acquisition

00:00 – What held Carsten back from getting started earlier

00:00 – How Carsten runs the business in just a few hours each week from his home

00:00 – How Mastermind helped Carsten learn what he needed to close his first deal

00:00 – How Carsten took six months to complete the purchase

00:00 – How he creates systems to conclude deals more efficiently

00:00 – What Carsten is focusing on next

Here is what you will discover…

• Why buying a bigger business with a management team is always better than a small business
• How to avoid getting stuck in the day-to-day running of the business
• How to avoid wasting time and money during the deal sourcing process by having a system in place
• Why a network of experience dealmakers is essential to saving time and money on any business acquisition
• Why you need to get started learning business buying now – even if you think it's too soon
• How to avoid wasting time and money during the deal sourcing process by having a system in place
• Why a network of experience dealmakers is essential to saving time and money on any business acquisition

Did you know there is a government-backed lending scheme in the US that allows you to borrow up to 100% of the cost of acquiring a business?

In this episode of Business Buying Strategies, Jonathan talks to Ray Drew from Fund-Ex Solutions and an expert in SBA lending about the scheme and how it has become a useful way of buying a business without using any of your own money.

During the interview, Jonathan and Ray discuss how SBA lending works, why it was set up by the government, the various options available and how to apply.

If you're a listener in the US and are not aware of this scheme, you need to listen to this episode.

Even if you're not US-based, it is worth listening as Ray reveals why the trend of Baby Boomers retiring and selling their businesses presents one of the biggest opportunities in a generation for people looking to acquire a business.

Here are the key highlights:

01:18 - How Ray became an expert in SBA loans and how the landscape has changed in the last few years

01:54 - Why SBA lending was developed and how it is currently being used

02:52 - How SBA 7(a) funding works

04:26 - How to apply for SBA funding

05:02 - Why business experience isn't essential for a loan (and what other experience and factors will help)

07:15 - What options are available for raising a deposit

10:36 - The role of the seller during the process and how SBA lending benefits them

13:30 - Key conditions around the loan terms and conditions you need to know

17:40 - The importance of negotiating working capital for the acquired business

21:24 - Applicant and business eligibility for secure borrowing

25:52 - How to get Ray's help when seeking an SBA loan

Here is what you will discover…

• Why SBA 7(a) programme is "like a Swiss Army knife" of lending for small businesses in the US
• How the "Silver Tsunami" of retiring Baby Boomer business owners will create an incredible opportunity for business buyers in the next 12 months
• Why business acquisitions now make up 80% of Ray's funding activity (a huge increase on previous years)
• How much loan-to-value you can expect using SBA funding and the maximum financing level available
• Why the SBA programme has created an exciting opportunity to build wealth for individuals who traditionally would not have considered buying a business

• How a buyer can access up to 100% deal financing by demonstrating strong sector experience or transferable skills
• How buyers are protected through government-mandated interest rates (you never pay about a certain fixed interest rate for your lending)
• Who is eligible for SBA 7(a) funding and what businesses are specifically excluded

Notable quotes

"The business plan is just the tip of the iceberg. It's what you would call a full doc program, but the business plan doesn't have to be too crazy because it's for an existing business."

"We look for relevant experience. Most of all, we look for management experience. Experience managing people, managing a budget, managing a P&L, things like that are going to transfer over to just about any business."

"So a credible buyer for that type of business really has the potential to buy or pay up to $5 million for a business."

if you've already bought a business, you should be part of my Inner Circle group where we discuss raising capital, integration management, and exiting. Email Maria at [email protected] for more information.

In the latest episode of Business Buying Strategies, we hear from seven dealmakers who have successfully bought businesses without using any of their own money.

Each dealmaker is a member of the Business Acquisition Mastermind and has bought at least one business. These are not distressed businesses, but profitable, established businesses that gave the buyer cash flow from Day 1.

If you are still unsure whether 'no money down' deals really can be done, this highlights episode answers the question.

Here are the key highlights:

01:05 - How Danny bought a manufacturing business for £900,000 without any of his own money by bringing in a property investor

09:10 - How James acquired a heritage family-run funeral director business by going undercover as a chauffeur to meet the owners

18:35 - How Dan managed a challenging vendor to successfully complete his first eight-figure acquisition in the plant hire sector

26:48 - How David bought three small companies, rolled them together and used efficiency of scale to create a highly profitable business

32:20 - How Chris joined Mastermind and instantly acquired a competitor business

36:46 - How Akram acquired a commercial cleaning business originally listed for £180,000 for just £25,000 using a negotiation technique taught in Dealmakers Academy

43:12 - How Nick grew his printing business through acquisition rather than taking years to grow organically

Here is what you will discover…

• Why you only need to be a few steps ahead to successfully negotiate with business owners
• Why it is so difficult to start a new business today (and how buying a business takes years off your path to profit)
• Why buying an established business with existing staff and client list is always the best idea for your first business acquisition
• Why you should never put in an offer to the business (and what to do instead to get the best price possible)
• How to deal with business owners who threaten to walk because they suddenly decide they want more money
• Why you should never believe a vendor who says they've changed their mind (and why it always pays to keep the conversation going)
• How to use margin improvement to make your acquired businesses more profitable
• Why you should always hire operational functions as soon as you can afford them (or even before) so you can focus on strategy and acquisitions
• Why most businesses listed with brokers are already overpriced
• Why money is not always the No.1 motivation for buyers (and how to get a buyer to reveal their true reasons for selling)
• Why some business owners fall out of love with their business and are looking for a buyer to take the business from them (some are even willing to pay you to take their business)
