When I started a lawn care company, it was because I just wanted to get my feet wet in business.
I used some good ole fashioned pattern recognition and critical thinking and made it successful. Any business can win if you are not a moron.
I moved down to Tampa and built a group of entrepreneurs.
One night, me and one of my friends said "how can we make a lot of money and not have to do much?"
We decided we would buy companies at a discount and sell them. Private equity.
We made a brand, made an ad, and started getting leads of retiring business owners wanting to sell their companies. The leads are still coming in, costing about $10 each.
My sales guy calls them on the phone. The call is transcribed. Claude reviews all of the calls and financials and tells us which businesses to buy.
How do we buy businesses? Where did we get "the money"?
We get that question a lot.
Sure, we have a little bit of money, but our goal is always to buy with none of our money.
#1. These sellers need to be highly motivated, which means they would be willing to accept heavy seller financing. Having lots of leads helps have abundance.
#2. We have a large group of entrepreneurs who also know a lot of people. We personally know many of them looking to invest hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars, not including other investors who our friends know. We can raise almost any amount we want.
#3. We can use SBA funds if we need to.
We get hundreds of leads for businesses to buy. We review their financials and do our due diligence.
We come across fantastic niche businesses that have a proven track record and make tons of money.
I will be sharing the businesses that we come across. Their business model, how they do it, how you could do it, and what you could expect to make.
No, I'm not under any NDA. And I'm not sharing their exact business. I'm just sharing basic information.
The real value is in the fact you are unaware and lack validation. Seeing a real business make real money shows you it can be done.
