Buying a business is a gamble. Here’s how to make it less of one.

I joined Jaryd Krause on the Buying Online Businesses podcast to break down how new buyers get swindled into bad deals and how you can avoid becoming one of them.

I call out the most dangerous blind spots I see buyers make over and over again. This is stuff that can cost you hundreds of thousands, or worse, your entire investment.

Here’s some of what we cover:

• The biggest due diligence mistakes that sink deals

• How seller relationships can quietly sabotage your acquisition

• The way brokers and sellers manipulate the narrative (and what to do about it)

• Why most buyers ignore marketing diligence and pay for it later

• My go-to frameworks for sniffing out red flags before they blow up

This episode isn’t theory. It’s war stories, frameworks, and the truth about what it takes to buy a solid business without getting taken.

Expert guidance on your first deal.

You don’t need to stumble through your first acquisition alone. The Masterclass gives you a step-by-step, battle-tested roadmap so you can move forward without second-guessing every decision. And when the unexpected shows up (it always does), I’m just a call away to help you navigate the chaos and stay on track.
