  • Resumen

  • Andy and JT welcome you to another episode of The Deal Board Podcast. This week, they explore the surge of Millennials and Gen Z buying “boring” small businesses (such as sawmills, packaging companies, and HVAC services) as Baby Boomers retire and sell their long-held enterprises. They discuss the shift in generational ownership, the appeal of steady cash-flowing businesses over startups, and how younger buyers are using technology to modernize legacy operations. The conversation also covers the importance of relationship-building during business transitions and debunks common myths around “no-money-down” deals. Tune in to learn how this generational shift is reshaping the business-for-sale landscape (and how you can get in on the action)! Listing of the Week: Taylor Bombardiere presents a rare opportunity to acquire a thriving specialty retail business just 30 to 40 minutes outside of downtown Denver. This established business features two high-performing divisions: one focused on fine jewelry and the other on antique and premium firearms. Generating $357,000 in annual cash flow, it’s listed at $1.2 million, with the real estate also available for $1.8 million. With little to no competition within a 10-mile radius and a prime high-traffic location, the business enjoys strong community support and a reputation for excellence.

Deal of the Week: Jenn Armstrong and Philip Handke celebrate the successful sale of a nail salon in Scottsdale, Arizona, Phil’s second nail salon deal in just six months. This back-to-back success highlights the strong demand for well-run, service-based businesses in the Phoenix metro area. While the sale prices remain undisclosed, this latest deal showcases Transworld’s ability to match quality first-time buyers with thriving local businesses.

[Where] can I start?' But there's a whole wave of education online that says, don't start [from scratch]. Buy a cash-flowing business, a boring cash-flowing business.” — JT Tatem [0:03:14] “[Buying] a business is a much less risky proposition than starting a new business and maybe even getting a job.” — Andy Cagnetta [0:09:04] “[Interact with the seller] face to face, have a conversation, shake their hand. – There are businesses that get sold sight unseen, – [but] most businesses, you don't buy that way.” — JT Tatem [0:12:41] “There's tons of boring businesses out there that you can buy.” — Andy Cagnetta [0:25:49]
