Synopsis "How to Buy the Right Business the Right Way: Avoid Buying the Wrong Business or the Right Business the Wrong Way"
Too many people buy the wrong business or buy the right business the wrong way. Longtime dealmaker Ted J. Leverette's book, How to Buy the Right Business the Right Way: Dos, Don'ts & Profit Strategies, is the definitive guide. The sad reality is poorly prepared people, who cannot show their advisors worthwhile deals, are the #1 reason why attorneys, accountants, lenders and other others kill deals or have trouble with clients. Business brokers and sellers, too, suffer from ill-prepared buyers. Don't believe it? Ask them. This book distills decades of Leverette's dealmaking experiences with entrepreneurs buying, selling, and advising small and midsize businesses. It explains hundreds of dos, don'ts, and profit strategies, any one of which can make or break the deal you intend to do, especially relating to companies with annual revenue of $1 million to $20 million. "Anything smaller," Leverette warns, "is not a smart investment for searchers capable of buying bigger and more profitable." Readers see reality. How to be taken seriously by brokers, sellers, and lenders. Understanding the dealmaking playing field. Detecting and screening opportunities and vulnerabilities. Due Diligence - Valuing - Financing - Negotiating - Transitioning Into the Company. Readers educate themselves and showcase what they bring to the table, plus other things they can do to achieve the best deal, at the lowest cost and in the least amount of time. Leverette says, "why settle for some of the businesses for sale if you can access all of them on the unadvertised and huge hidden market of sellers, which is where to find the best companies and the best deals." Business owners, sellers, and their advisors use this book to better-understand and deal with buyers. Written clearly, easy-to-read, and organized for quick reference, "How to Buy the Right Business the Right Way," empowers buyers to save time, money and aggravation during their journey searching for and acquiring companies.
