Let"s Buy a Business ·

2026/03/30

Jaryd Krause shares how he went from being a plumber in Australia to buying online businesses (starting on Flippa in 2014) because he wanted a travel-friendly lifestyle. He then breaks down a recent deal where his clients bought a US-based business that helps Amazon sellers get product feedback and saw big upside from systems, team, and expansion opportunities. The acquisition used SBA financing plus a seller note, but the process got messy with legal slowdowns, tax/IRS hiccups, and classic "deal

Nick Akers started by founding a venture-capital-backed company, then moved into a more "traditional" track leading a manufacturing company before spending ~2.5–3 years doing an ETA-style search. He ultimately acquired an IT services business (STL Communications) and rebranded it to Enzo Technologies, where he focuses heavily on cybersecurity for small/legacy businesses.

Chad Petersen has done A LOT of deals. We dive into his accidental entrepreneur journey....started mowing lawns at 13, realized ownership = freedom, then built + sold his first company at 19 and kept repeating the "build cash flow → sell for a liquidity jump" playbook (six of his own). * What buyers do wrong with brokers (and how to stand out): the market has more motivated buyers; buyers kill deals by showing entitlement, fighting NDAs, and not having a personal financial statement ready. *

A Searcher Bought a Job and Thought it Would be Passive

Let"s Buy a Business ·

2026/01/06

I knew a searcher who was buying a job, but didn't know they were buying a job. Buying a job is a bad thing. You just need to be realistic about what you are actually buying and what your intent is with acquiring a business. Repeat, there is nothing passive about buying a business. If you want a mailbox check, buy dividend-paying stocks or CDs. Join the How to Buy a Business Cohort https://www.letsbuyabusiness.com/p/how-to-build-a-business-cohort-with-ryan-condie/ Sourcing

Math doesn't lie. Be real with your position, which side of the equation are you on? Are you using Multipliers? Are you capturing 7% of the value or 93% of the value created?

Salary is linear while equity compounds via multiples. $1M profit. $250k goes to employee. $750k in profit left goes to owner. $750k x 4 (equity multiplier) = $3M $3.75M goes to owner. 6.6% of the value goes to the employee. 93% of the value goes to the owner.

Most management tasks shouldn't take six months. Yet many companies let them drag on. Break each day into three lists: 1. Tasks that bring in new business (raise revenue or cut costs). 2. Tasks to maintain or keep operations running. 3. Tasks others expect, but that don't add value. Never start list 2 until list 1 is done. Never start list 3 until list 2 is done.
