BUYING 101
BUSINESS OWNERSHIP THROUGH ACQUISITION
Whether you are a manager wanting to make a change in your career, serial entrepreneur looking for your next adventure or a recent MBA graduate looking to begin a management career, buying a small business is an option you should consider. You can buy an existing business, right now, and run it as CEO and forego the growing pains of starting a new venture from the ground up.
MANAGING THE RISKS OF OWNERSHIP
Owning and operating a small business may seem risky. You head may be filled with all the things that could go wrong such as:
What if revenues drop once you take over running the company?
What if your most valued customers switch to a competitor?
What if the market for the hot new technology you’ve invested in crashes?
BUYER SELF ASSESSMENT
Is buying a small business right for you? Business ownership through acquisition is an extraordinary professional opportunity—but it’s not for everyone. Business ownership can provide professional achievement, independence, and financial success, but it also takes time, energy, and sacrifice.
