Top M&A Entrepreneurs

We acquire great companies. And we help other companies acquire great companies. We always offer fair, fast and friendly terms. We have learned how to acquire companies by doing it ourselves and by learning from the best. Every week, we talk to the "Top M&A Entrepreneurs" today to ask them about their process, where and how they source their deals, analyzing deals, valuation, and pricing, negotiating the deal, due diligence, transition planning and closing. We talk about their successes, failures, their acquisition model, their acquisition scorecard to evaluate potential acquisitions, finding the right type of seller, identifying the right type of characteristics in an acquisition, deals to avoid, the financial deal stack, buying a business with no money down or raising capital to financing the deal, what M&A means to their business, their results, how they do it and why they do it. We also talk about the seven types of businesses they buy if they already have an existing platform business and how you can turn expenses to profits and how bolts-on can grow your business faster than organic growth. We ask about their KPI's, critical drivers and what they focus on. We ask about patience, ego, boldness and how it affects acquisitions. We also talk about their journey, how they started, their call to adventure, the mentors who inspired them, their major challenges, how they crossed the threshold, the ordeal, rebirth, what keeps them motivated and how process changed their life and business.
