    How Acquirers Get Swindled Into Dud Deals Without Understanding Proper Business Due Diligence with Elliot Holland
    Jul 16 2025
    Strap in for a brutally honest conversation as Jaryd Krause sits down with none other than Elliot Holland, a Harvard Business School alum, seasoned entrepreneur, and strategic founder. Elliot runs a seven-figure due diligence firm that performs "mini audits" on businesses, helping investors avoid being misled by clever sellers and slick brokers. With nearly 20 years of experience in small business acquisitions, Elliot has seen it all—and then some. From hidden red flags in financials to smoke-and-mirrors marketing metrics on Amazon and SEO-driven sites, he shares exactly where buyers get it wrong—and how those mistakes can cost you hundreds of thousands, or worse, your entire investment. This episode will pull back the curtain on how unsuspecting buyers get swindled into buying dud deals, all because they skipped real due diligence. Highlight the critical considerations buyers often miss in the acquisition process: ✔️ The most common (and costly) mistakes buyers make in due diligence✔️ Why relationships with sellers matter—and how they can go sideways fast✔️ How sellers can mislead or manipulate the narrative to close a deal✔️ Financial vs. marketing due diligence—what most acquirers overlook✔️ The frameworks Elliot uses to assess businesses like an expert This is not just theory—Elliot has personally helped countless clients dodge bad deals and secure multi-million-dollar wins, all by demystifying the due diligence process. With his signature humor, straight talk, and lived experience, he makes complex business buying principles not only clear but actionable. Whether you're a first-time acquirer or scaling your portfolio, this episode will save you more than money—it could save your sanity. Don’t even think about buying a business until you listen to this conversation. Episode Highlights 04:15 – Red flags usually show as many small issues rather than one big problem 10:30 – Verifying seller’s time commitment by reviewing task lists and holding strategy meetings 18:45 – Wanting shortcuts in due diligence can lead to costly mistakes 23:00 – Sellers often resist reasonable buyer requests like strong non-competes and management interviews 26:10 – Negotiation is a strategic dance where sellers test buyer strength 29:15 – Cheaper advisors often bring higher risks and lower value on seven-figure deals Key Takeaways ➥ Red flags are subtle and require a sharp, skeptical mindset to detect ➥ Sellers use stories and distractions instead of admitting flaws outright ➥ Due diligence takes time and can be uncomfortable but shortcuts are costly ➥ Experienced advisors are critical for high-value deals to avoid disaster ➥ Buyers need to be ready to walk away if sellers are not transparent or cooperative ➥ Emotional detachment helps buyers make better decisions and negotiate smarter About Elliot Holland Elliott Holland is a Harvard Business School alum, former business acquirer & OG in small business acquisitions.

  • Risk Prevention Strategies in M&A Deals & Building The Right Team with Jerome Fogel

    Risk Prevention Strategies in M&A Deals & Building The Right Team with Jerome Fogel
    Jul 9 2025
    In this compelling episode, Jaryd Krause is joined by seasoned dealmaker and legal expert Jerome Fogel, partner at Fogel & Potamianos LLP, a boutique law firm specializing in high-stakes mergers, acquisitions, and capital raises. With a client list that spans venture funds, emerging tech companies, and elite athletes, Jerome offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to structure smart, safe, and scalable business deals. Unpack the most critical questions aspiring buyers need to ask before acquiring an online business: ✔️ What are the hidden risks in buying or selling?✔️ How can poor team dynamics tank a deal?✔️ Should you use financing to buy a business—and what’s the best way to structure it?✔️ Where are the most promising online businesses being acquired today? Dive deep into the importance of due diligence, the common pitfalls buyers fall into, and how Jerome has helped high-profile clients—both on Wall Street and in the sports world—navigate complex transactions and build generational wealth. Whether you're looking to buy your first online business, scale your portfolio, or just want a masterclass in deal-making from someone who lives and breathes it, this episode delivers powerful insights and practical strategies. Don’t miss this one—it’s packed with value from start to finish. Episode Highlights 04:45 – Current valuations explained, covering how tariffs and supply chain issues impact multiples and buyer decisions. 07:20 – Typical ways buyers finance acquisitions, including credit lines, SBA loans, equity rollovers, and search funds. 10:55 – Major mistake buyers make by rushing post-acquisition integration without building trust within the team. 12:45 – What successful acquisitions have in common by retaining key team members and valuing the founder’s knowledge. 24:10 – Key risk prevention strategies involving thorough reps and warranties, clear earnout terms, strong IP protections, and precise legal language. 26:30 – Why clear definitions around risk and performance clauses are vital. Key Takeaways ➥ M&A valuations currently range from 3–8x EBITDA for traditional companies and 10–15x for platform tech businesses, influenced heavily by tariffs and market uncertainty. ➥ Buyers typically operate in the $2M to $25M+ EBITDA range and rely on strong banking relationships, SBA loans, or creative financing like equity rollovers. ➥ Structuring deal terms clearly—especially reps and warranties and material adverse effect clauses—is critical to managing risk in acquisitions. ➥ Post-acquisition integration is one of the toughest challenges; involving existing teams and respecting founders’ knowledge leads to smoother transitions. ➥ Restrictive covenants are essential to prevent sellers from competing after the sale and protect buyer investments. ➥ Every deal is unique and requires customized, creative solutions; cookie-cutter approaches don’t work in M&A.

No guest this time—just Jaryd, and over ten years of real-world experience helping thousands of people build financial freedom through smart acquisitions. This episode is a deep dive inspired by Jaryd’s most-watched YouTube content and the questions he hears constantly from aspiring buyers: Why should you buy a profitable business?

Get ready for a no-fluff breakdown of: ✔️ Why buying a profitable online business can fast-track your path to income and freedom✔️ How much capital do you need to get started (spoiler: it’s not always as much as you think)✔️ The truth about financing a deal—and what creative structures work✔️ Where to find legitimate, vetted businesses for sale right now✔️ The rookie mistakes that could cost you thousands—and how to avoid them This isn’t financial advice—but it is packed with insights from someone who’s helped people go from browsing listings to building six- and seven-figure digital business portfolios. If you’re ready to move from dreaming to doing, this episode will show you exactly what to consider, what to avoid, and where the real opportunities are in 2025’s online business marketplace. Hit play and take notes—this one’s loaded. Episode Highlights 04:17 – Why buying a profitable online business is better than starting one from scratch? 07:38 – The ideal type of online business to acquire as a beginner. 13:24 – How much money should you invest when buying your first business? 18:43 – Why must you understand the ROI beyond just net profit? 27:46 – Myths around no-money-down deals and what real financing looks like. 31:22 – Where to find online businesses for sale: brokers vs. off-market deals?
