Buying a business sounds like a shortcut—but most people never make it to the finish line. Why? Because they chase the wrong deals.

In this episode, I talk with Richard Parker, founder of Diomo Corporation, about what really works when you're looking to acquire a business that fits you—and what most people get completely wrong.

🎯 You’ll Learn:

  • Why experience doesn’t always translate to ownership success
  • The 5 filters that’ll save you from a bad acquisition
  • How to tell if a business is a spaghetti mess—or ready to scale
  • The one shift you must make before even reaching out to a seller

If you’re even thinking about buying a business, start with this episode.
