  • Can You Afford A 7 Figure Business Acquisition? with Jaryd Krause

    Can You Afford A 7 Figure Business Acquisition? with Jaryd Krause
    Nov 26 2025
    Think a million-dollar online business is out of reach? The real barrier isn’t the price—it’s everything you don’t see coming before you even sign. In this solo episode, Jaryd Krause pulls back the curtain on the part of buying a 7-figure business that almost nobody talks about—the real costs, the real timelines, the real competition, and the parts of the process that can quietly wreck your deal long before you ever get to the closing table. Most people assume a $1M acquisition is simple math:Find the business, put down the deposit, sign some papers, done. But behind every one of those deals are fees, structures, advisors, lenders, deadlines, and expectations that—if you’re not prepared—will eat your budget and your sanity alive. Here’s what Jaryd gets into: 📌 The actual line-item expenses of buying a 7-figure business (legal, advisors, due diligence, escrow, lender fees—yes, all of it) 📌Why doing a smaller deal doesn’t necessarily make anything easier and why some “cheap” deals cost more in mistakes 📌How the right deal structure can turn upfront costs into credits that reduce what you owe at closing 📌 The role of buyer-side advisors —what they charge, what they’re worth, and when you shouldn’t hire one 📌 The hidden criteria lenders use to judge your deal that most buyers don’t even know they’re being evaluated on 📌 Why timelines are never linear and competition is always sharper at the top 📌 The mindset traps that sabotage buyers and how patience becomes the most profitable strategy you have Jaryd doesn’t dress it up. He walks you through the real picture—what it costs, what’s negotiable, what’s risky, and what will give you an edge when everyone else is rushing and guessing. If you’ve ever wondered whether you can actually afford a million-dollar acquisition, consider this your roadmap—and your reality check. 🎧 Plug in. This one will change the way you look at buying a business. Episode Highlights 01:15 – Differences between sub-$500K deals vs seven-figure acquisitions 02:24 – Key costs when buying a seven-figure business 04:52 – Why do you need a specialized M&A lawyer? 07:13 – How to structure legal packages for letters of intent, asset purchase agreements, and contract due diligence 16:56 – Why larger businesses can be easier to acquire despite higher costs, and how cash flow impacts returns 19:22 – How long it can take to close a seven-figure business deal and factors affecting timing 21:40 – Cash vs. financed deals: the impact on negotiation power and deal structure 23:55 – Setting realistic expectations and why compounding small wins builds confidence in acquisitions 26:17 – Why do you need to work with experts? Key Takeaways ➥ Legal fees for M&A lawyers usually run 1–2% of the deal, and using an experienced online business acquisition lawyer is essential. ➥ Finance broker fees range from $5K–$10K, with SBA or lender fees around 3.5–3.75% of the financed amount, often rolled into the loan. ➥ Buyer-side advisors (3–8% of deal size) can review due diligence, advise on deal structure, negotiate, and sometimes source pre-vetted businesses. ➥ Due diligence packages ($5K–$40K) and escrow (~1% of acquisition) are key costs, but many upfront fees can be credited toward your deposit. ➥ With smart planning, many upfront costs—legal, advisor, and broker fees—can be credited toward your deposit, allowing acquisition with just 10% cash down. ➥ The larger the business, the more leverage you have, and the more stable the cash flow. Entry costs scale, but ROI potential often increases with size. ➥ Acquisition timelines vary widely—sometimes months, years—depending on market availability, acquisition criteria, and competition. Patience is key. ➥ Set realistic expectations. Overly ambitious goals or standards can harm mindset and decision-making. Compounding small wins builds confidence and sustainable success.

  • The Truth About SBA Loans for Buying Online Businesses (Ray Drew Explains)

    The Truth About SBA Loans for Buying Online Businesses (Ray Drew Explains)
    Nov 19 2025
    What if the one thing stopping you from owning a thriving online business isn’t money… but what you don’t know about SBA financing? In this episode, Jaryd Krause chats with Ray Drew—aka SBA Ray—host of The Art of SBA Lending, the #1 podcast that pulls back the curtain on how SBA loans really work. Ray is the Managing Director at Truliant Federal Credit Union, a deal closer with hundreds of successful SBA-financed businesses under his belt, the man behind millions in SBA-backed deals, and the architect of SBA success stories nationwide. He’s seen everything—the smooth wins, the total nightmares, and the deals that fell apart days before closing. Most people think an SBA loan is simple: apply, get approved, buy the business, boom—you’re a CEO. But the truth? There are traps hidden in plain sight. And missing just one could cost you the deal—or tens of thousands in wasted time and fees. Here’s what Ray and Jaryd dive into: 🔥 The hidden misconceptions that trip up first-time buyers (even the smart ones)🔥 Why your “perfect” deal structure could actually kill your loan approval🔥 The truth about interest rates, balloon payments, and seller financing nobody tells you🔥 What really happens behind the scenes when lenders assess your deal🔥 The surprising reason your loan might get rejected even if you’re qualified 🔥 How long does the process really take—and what delays can quietly blow up your timeline🔥 Why the right M&A attorney can save your deal when everything’s on the line Ray doesn’t sugarcoat it—he breaks down exactly what’s going wrong in the SBA space and what you need to know before you sign anything. If you’ve ever dreamed of acquiring an online business but didn’t know how to fund it, this is your reality check and your roadmap. Because when it comes to SBA lending, it’s not just about money… It’s about knowing the game before you play it. 🎧 Grab your headphones. This one could save your next deal. Episode Highlights 01:12 – What SBA lending is and why it’s a game-changer for business buyers 06:40 – Why buying a business often beats starting from scratch 09:24 – The most common misconceptions about SBA loans 12:10 – Key factors lenders look for before approving a deal 15:32 – The #1 mistake buyers make during the SBA loan process 18:46 – How to choose the right lender and build a strong relationship 21:55 – Real stories from hundreds of SBA-financed deals—the smooth, the messy, and the ones that fell apart 25:08 – How does the deal structure and negotiation impact loan approval 28:26 – Why preparation is the real secret to fast, successful closings 31:47 – Ray’s process for evaluating if a business is truly financeable 34:15 – Lessons from deals that went wrong—and how to avoid the same pitfalls 37:28 – What every buyer should do 6–12 months before applying for an SBA loan 39:52 – Ray’s best advice for entrepreneurs who want to acquire a business in 2025 Key Takeaways ➥ SBA financing is one of the most powerful yet misunderstood tools for buying a business—it lets entrepreneurs acquire profitable companies with as little as 10% down. ➥ Preparation is everything. Clean financials, accurate tax returns, and a solid business plan can drastically increase your chances of getting approved. ➥ The right lender matters more than most realize. Experienced SBA lenders can structure deals creatively, solve problems quickly, and close with confidence. ➥ Not all deals are created equal—lenders look for stable cash flow, strong management transitions, and businesses with proven profitability. ➥ Expect surprises. Even well-structured deals can fall apart near closing, so patience, flexibility, and expert guidance are essential. ➥ Buying a business with SBA financing isn’t just about getting a loan—it’s about acquiring a long-term wealth vehicle that can transform your financial future. ➥ Execution beats theory. Ray’s track record proves that the best buyers are those who take action, learn from each deal, and build relationships with trusted lenders.

  • E-commerce Exit Strategy & 8 Figure Scaling Secrets with Andri Sadlak

    E-commerce Exit Strategy & 8 Figure Scaling Secrets with Andri Sadlak
    Nov 12 2025
    Most people guess marketing tricks—but Andri Sadlik knows the shortcuts, the pitfalls, and the moves nobody talks about. In this episode, Jaryd Krause sits down with Andri Sadlik, a pro at scaling SaaS, AI, and e-commerce businesses. Andri launched his first business and exited successfully. After that, he scaled multiple Amazon FBA brands from $100K a year up to $1M, and finally over $10M. No gimmicks, no luck—just carefully built systems, a strategy that makes sense, and teams that execute like clockwork. He’s also the co-founder of ProductPinion, a SaaS company he’s planning to exit, and has been featured in top media outlets for his expertise in scaling businesses. In this conversation, you’ll hear how he: 🚀 Built and sold his first business—without repeating rookie mistakes 🚀 Survived a broker nightmare—and came out ahead 🚀 Took Amazon brands from $100K → $1M → $10M+ 🚀 Created influencer programs that generate real ROI 🚀 Scales multiple businesses by connecting teams, systems, and plans Andri shares the challenges, the wins, and the step-by-step strategies that helped him grow an impressive portfolio of businesses. If you want actionable insights on scaling, selling, or acquiring e-commerce businesses, this conversation is packed with value. Tune in and learn how to take your business from 0 to 8-figures—and avoid the mistakes that can cost you big. Episode Highlights 01:04 – How Andri sold his 3-year-old Amazon FBA business in 2020 03:07 – How to vet brokers carefully 07:30 – How to prep for business exit prep 12:58 – The post-acquisition success story 16:41 – How to bring new customers with minimal effort while complementing existing PPC spend. 23:06 – Secret hack for driving real conversions. 27:36 – Why experience matters Key Takeaways ➥ Selling a business isn’t just about the exit—it’s about preparation. Optimizing operations, cleaning up books, and systemizing processes can dramatically increase value before you sell. ➥ Choosing the right broker is critical. Some may prioritize buyers over sellers, so triple-check their process and talk to previous clients to avoid surprises. ➥ Price smart: list slightly higher than you expect to sell. Buyers usually negotiate down, and a higher starting point protects your upside. ➥ Post-acquisition growth thrives on systems and expertise. Optimizing listings, ads, inventory, and operations can double revenue—even for a brand bought for “super small” amounts. ➥ Recurring purchase models are gold. Consumable products, repeat buyers, and brand loyalty can accelerate growth faster than flashy campaigns. ➥ Leveraging influencer programs strategically—segmenting creators, VIPs, and deal groups—can drive 11%+ of sales without heavy spend. ➥ Continuous experimentation, collaboration, and smart use of customer feedback unlock unexpected growth. Even small tweaks to processes or partnerships can massively scale results. About Andri Sadlak Andri Sadlak is the Head of Product & Strategy leader with a track record of building and scaling SaaS, AI, and e-commerce businesses. Scaled 8-figure portfolio, co-founded a Saas company called ProductPinion, and has featured in many media publications talking about scaling online businesses..
