In this episode, we dive into eight creative ways to buy a business without putting your own cash on the line. From buying for just £1 to deferring payments and using the business’s own funds, we unpack real-world strategies that actually work. We also chat about how to handle sellers who expect full payment upfront — and how to reassure them without giving personal guarantees. It's a practical, no-fluff conversation about smart deal-making and building trust during negotiations.
