How to Bag Your Next Perfect Acquisition Deal
Growing your business and boosting its valuation through acquisitions has become increasingly common over the past five years.
While there are exceptions, the best deals are usually off-market. This means building relationships with potential targets well in advance.
By doing so, you’ll often find sellers approaching you before the opportunity hits the open market.
Many business owners looking to acquire other companies already have a list of targets and existing relationships, either as partners or customers.
Frequently, your next acquisition is hidden within your network. Suppliers, competitors, and industry contacts often know who’s considering an exit before it becomes widely known.
However, finding, acquiring, and integrating businesses can be time-consuming, risky, and distracting.
I advise business owners to consider outsourcing parts of the acquisition process or negotiations, or finding business partners who can handle the strain.
Be patient — the perfect acquisition rarely lands in your lap overnight.
