A strategic playbook for acquiring small businesses.

Book Cover & Preview Text
Let's say you want to buy a business through seller financing, but they want a 40K deposit to make the deal happen.
Do you plunk that amount down on a credit card? (I mean, you could, but probably not wise.)
Instead, you could take out an SBA 7(a) loan for the total amount. You'll have enough to cover the 40K deposit and can continue paying the seller over the agreed-upon number of years using the profits from the business. And since the SBA loan money is just sitting with you in your bank, you have some breathing room to cover unexpected costs or even reinvest in the business itself.

About the Book
A few decades ago, the American Dream meant a white picket fence, two-point-five kids, a yellow lab playing in the backyard, and a healthy retirement plan from a forty-plus-year job. Three crises and a pandemic have exposed the fallacy of a system that is no longer designed to support this dream.
Authors Matthew R. Meehan and Luigi Rosabianca believe everyone should own some type of business. Whether it’s a part-time side hustle or a full-time income stream, the best thing you can do for yourself, your family, and your future is to stop depending on corporate America. You can, quite literally, buy the American Dream. No matter your background, area of expertise, industry, or the amount of money in your bank account, business ownership can be yours.
This playbook is your step-by-step guide to acquiring small and medium-sized businesses. Learn how to find the business, buy the business, and grow the business. You won’t find a lot of fluff on these pages—just straightforward, actionable advice you can start today. There’s no better time than now to create the life you want, and this is the book that will get you there. Are you ready?
