Episode notes
Bigger Is Less Risky
- Buying a larger, well-packaged business reduces risk compared to a tiny owner-dependent business.
- Aim for a $1–$3M revenue target because the work to acquire is similar regardless of size.
Match Business To Your Life And Skills
- Define a qualitative buy box: will the business fit your lifestyle and match your skill set?
- Buy to leverage your strengths (e.g., marketing strength → operationally sound business needing sales).
Quantitative Buy Box Rules
- Target service-based, simple businesses with $1–$3M revenue and $300–$600k SDE.
- Prefer high margins, low customer concentration, three years of financials, and local proximity for your first buy.
