Acerca de esta escucha
Do you dream of being your own boss? You can start a small business, or you can acquire one already underway. After going through this program, you will understand the particular risks and benefits of each method. We will explore what it really means to be successful in your own business beyond the surface-level statistics. You will learn how businesses are valued and how to use tools like debt to acquire one or buy the stuff you need to do a startup. Most importantly, we’ll explore the real risks of small business and manage those risks by understanding how to plan for contingencies, pivots and setting limits.
WARNING: This is not a book to get you all excited with lots of empty-headed pro-entrepreneurship lifestyle cheerleading stuff. It’s about the real world and based on the author's experience as a business owner and advisor since the 1990's.

Many smart entrepreneurs prefer to buy an existing business instead of beginning a new one. Buying a business that is already operational will bring many benefits, including an already established product or service, well-trained staff who know the business, and enough success to have kept the company afloat for a period of time. Not having any money to purchase the business will not necessarily keep you from buying it.

You make your money when you buy! That's right, the biggest opportunity to make profits buying businesses or traffic assets is to buy them with the least possible amount of your own personal cash out of pocket. A lot of people think that the most successful deals happen when you sell, but if you can acquire businesses or traffic assets with $0 out of your own pocket, your returns can be almost infinite.

After the savings, mortgages, term loans, vendor financing, lines of credit, and even credit cards have been applied there sometimes remains a 'gap' in the money required to buy a successful business. David C Barnett has spent years helping people buy and sell businesses as both a business broker and private transaction advisor. In his years of experience, he has had to bridge that gap several times using broker loans. Business brokers are not in the normal business of lending money. How does one convince a broker that this is the right thing to do?

Once a barista in a small cafe making $6.50 an hour, Andrew Wilkinson built a business valued at over a billion dollars by the time he was 36—and yet, his path to success was anything but a straight line. In Never Enough, Wilkinson pulls back the curtain on the lives of the ultra-rich, sharing insights into building a successful business that has been called a “Berkshire Hathaway, but for internet companies,” and a surprising first-person account of what it's actually like to become a billionaire.

Everyone wants ownership, but almost no one gets it. Whether we’re talking about the start-up game, the crypto game, the freelance game, or the lemonade stand game—most paths to ownership lead to dead ends. That’s why Codie Sanchez carved a new, smarter path to total freedom. In Main Street Millionaire, she reveals the method she teaches her community of seven-figure investors for building wealth by creating a portfolio of boring businesses. That’s right—the money is not in flashy startups or in the corner office.

Wise and without hype.
If you’re looking for honest advice without influencer spin, this is the book for you. Not a bloated how to manual but rather a concise primer on what to expect and lookout for. I’ve consulted 1:1 with David and would recommend the same for anyone considering pursuing business acquisition.
Also, a tip of the hat to the narration, very well placed and pleasant to listen to. Major kudos to the author for going through the painstaking process, The impact of the work would not have been the same had he not.
