So, you need money to buy a business, just ask the seller to take payments. The problem is that many buyers lack empathy in how they approach sellers.

Sieva Kozinsky reveals how anyone can buy their first business and quickly grow it to a $500,000 income… but does the plan make sense? Well, it’s hard to know. 10,500 people seem to like the advice. I’m getting old, so I’ve seen many deals and have some experience. Let me show you how I deconstruct this advice and see if it really plays out the way the author says. You may be surprised to learn that things on the Internet are not always what they seem. I explore the nitty-gritty of this advice and determine if it really makes sense or not in today’s video: https://youtu.be/K89r4TNebFE Other videos mentioned in this recording: Why SDE is not Cash Flow: https://youtu.be/E0IEGtsIE1o Pay for Potential, Blue Sky: https://youtu.be/INMiJJbXrZw Dead Capital in a Business: https://youtu.be/kHnIh6HM840 David and Warren Buffet Duel over Depreciation: https://youtu.be/_S2m1dieX6w Learn how to buy an already-successful and profitable business even in the covid-recession https://www.BusinessBuyerAdvantage.com Book a call with me at https://www.CallDavidBarnett.com Books can be found in my Amazon store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/davidbarnett Stop missing my new videos.

Chris sent me an email asking about whether fast-growing companies were extra-risky? Well, it depends on where the growth comes from. But, there is another risk in buying a fast-growing company. The risk that if the deal doesn’t close quickly, the seller will second-guess the price and/or other factors.

I suggested a few weeks ago that a reason NOT to buy a business was because you could make as much or more money by NOT being the owner. Let me explain… This week I’ll explain 4 different ways that non-owners can make more money, potentially, than business owners from a business. While the other benefits of freedom, control, etc may not be there for some of these strategies, they also don’t usually involve any investment risk.

In this episode, David analyzes skills and experiences to discover what areas, industries, or types of businesses are suitable for someone. He provides actionable steps to list down all roles, responsibilities, and duties a person had and assess that to extrapolate the business that best suits them. In this episode you will learn: Self-assessment to know the business that fits you Issues like risk adversity when an owner is not for the business What is changing in an industry amid the pandemic? Why small businesses have relatively low multiples How to know when markets are saturated About David Barnett: Barnett loves to say that it took him ten years to unlearn what he was taught in business school. Although university had trained him to be a middle-manager in big enterprises, he was totally unprepared for the realities of small business. After a career in advertising sales, Barnett started several businesses, including a commercial debt brokerage. Helping to finance small and medium-sized businesses led to the field of business brokerage. Over several years, Barnett sold dozens of businesses for others while also managing his portfolio of income properties and starting his career as a local private investor. Barnett regularly consults with professionals and banks on business and asset values. Presently he works as a private transaction advisor with people around the world who are buying or selling a business.
