[Listen] The power of action in business acquisition The difference between success and failure in business acquisition is not about how much you know. What stops most people buying their first business is their mindset and belief. You can watch hours of YouTube videos, listen to hundreds of podcast episodes, and attend countless M&A networking events, but none of it has any value unless you take action. In the latest episode of the Business Buying Strategies podcast, listen to Jonathan Jay’s keynote speech from our recent Dealmakers Marbella Retreat, in which he discusses the power of action. In the episode, Jonathan reveals his journey of selling his publishing company, why belief matters, what it takes to move from inertia to momentum, why your environment matters and the role of attitude in business acquisition. If you have been procrastinating and delaying getting started, we recommend you listen to this episode. It could provide you with the kickstart you need.

[Listen] Mastering Buy and Build strategies for business growth In the latest episode of the Business Buying Strategies podcast, Jonathan Jay reveals the rules for getting your Buy and Build strategy right. The Buy and Build strategy is a popular strategy with Private Equity firms, which involves acquiring multiple businesses and rolling them up together to create a business worth far more than the sum of its parts. However, there are plenty of risks along the way. In this episode recorded during the Dealmakers Retreat in Marbella earlier this year, Jonathan explains the benefits of using a Buy and Build strategy and how to avoid the potential challenges that come with it. If you are looking to increase the size of your business through acquisition rapidly, you need to listen to this episode. Listen and discover… 👉 Why everything takes longer and costs more than you expect going through your first acquisition (and why the next acquisition is always easier) 👉 Why your biggest challenge integrating businesses is staff (and what to do about it) 👉 Why you need to be clear on your exit objective to drive your Buy and Build strategy forward 👉 Why you should never overpay for a business (even if it feels like a must-have) 👉 Why understanding deal multiples is key to a highly lucrative exit (when you play the Private Equity game) 👉 Why training your staff is the secret weapon to growing your business 👉 Why you need to be aware of your own personal flaws so you can hire people who meet those needs 👉 Why the day-to-day management of a business has to work without your involvement (unless you want another job) 👉 Why you have to keep a close eye on cashflow while pursuing a Buy and Build strategy Listen here: https://lnkd.in/e_ZYgHF9

What size of business should you buy first? An early decision you need to make as a dealmaker is, what size business will you target for your first acquisition. It is easy to think the mantra of “start small” is appropriate when buying a business. On the face of it, it makes sense, doesn’t it? Start with a small business and work up to bigger businesses as you gain experience sounds a good idea. The reality is very different. In today’s episode of Business Buying Strategies, I explain why starting small is not a good strategy for first-time business buying and what is the right size business to target. If you are at this stage of your business buying journey, I recommend listening to this episode before you do anything else.

‘Building a £400M empire through business acquisition’ Is it possible to build a £400m empire through business acquisition? One of my mastermind clients, Martin, is doing just that. What sets Martin apart from many other dealmakers is his commitment to going above and beyond to secure the deal flow he knows he needs to achieve his goal. In his sector, there are many vendors who have unrealistic expectations of the value of their business. Rather than throw his hands up in frustration and move on, Martin developed a business coaching approach where he works with vendors to give them the valuation they are looking for. In return, they agree to sell him their business once they reach the valuation. The vendor gets what they want, and Martin acquires a business he knows has strong foundations that adds to his growing portfolio. You can find out more about this smart approach, as well as Martin’s strategy and negotiation approach in the latest episode of the Business Buying Strategies podcast.  Click here: https://lnkd.in/eZWsusec
