Show Notes:
  • Succession plan for Riverside Automotive- Matt buys out the current owner
  • Salesman stops into the shop offering consultation work (not automotive based)- consultant comes the next week looking into receipts and paperwork. Tells the owner his accountant is doing a poor job and asks what their ballpark agreement for sale price tag is. Immediately tells the owner it is priced too low and he could write a check for him today for more. Also adds in a scare tactic with IRS and 'gift tax.' Explains his team could get this deal done for around $40,000
  • Hunt Demarest- aggressive salespeople will pray on the owner's goals, insecurities and dreams with pressure behind it.
  • The importance of valuations from someone that is versed in the automotive industry.
  • Seller and buyer have to be on the same page with transparent communication
  • What is your relationship with your banker?
  • Be mindful of the opinions you are getting and who you are sharing information with
