You're thinking about buying a business in the next year, and that's something to be excited about! Let's start figuring out what to do first!

DON'T Quit your regular job!

This class will show you how to buy a business in the next year without spending much of your own money ALL WHILE HAVING YOUR JOB! It's safer than starting a new business from zero and much easier because someone else has already done the tough work. When you finish, you won't just have a business; you'll have control over your future too.

FAQ
+ How do I decide between buying the course and joining the Acquisition Academy Community?
If you just want to learn about buying a business and get all the information and help you need, you should get the course. Some people learn everything they need to know about buying a business and become owners without anything extra. But most people want more than just the information. That's where the Community comes in. It's like having experts help and guide you along the way. You'll have calls every week to ask questions and talk about deals, and there's a group of people online who can help you too. The Community is where most people who want to own a business end up. Buying a business, especially your first one, can take a long time and be hard. If you're really serious about buying a business in the next year, we usually suggest joining the Community. But if you're not sure yet, the course is a good place to start. And if you decide later that you want to join the Mastermind, we'll take the money you spent on the course and put it toward the cost of the Community.
+ I am currently traditionally employed. Should I take this course?
Most of the people who join our programs have regular jobs. They usually get paid well and are really good at what they do, but they need to build wealth for their families and their futures. This course will show you how to quit your job (or make extra money alongside it) so you can stop working on side projects forever.
+ Will it work for someone who has just started? I don’t even know what kind of biz I want to buy.
Yes, the course is where we all begin – right from the start. We even have a part to help you figure out what kind of business to buy. Don't stress if you don't know a lot about the industry or haven't done this before – we'll help you every step of the way.
+ What is the key difference in our course vs. all the others?
Our Small Biz Buying Course takes you down one very specific path. We give you every step of the process, show you what to do, why to do it, how to do it, and give you templates and exercises to do each thing. Then we give you the next step that produces momentum to keep you determined to keep going. We increase your chances of reaching your goals. It’s the same process we use to buy our own businesses, so we know it works. Another key difference is we specifically teach you how to buy the best deals and use seller financing to creatively negotiate the most profitable deal possible. We love brokers! Most people have negative things to say about brokers. We want you to get the best business, with the best deal, using no money of your own (or as little as possible).
+ Can the course concept be applied outside of the U.S.?
Definitely! If you can buy a small business where you live, these ideas will work for you. While some stuff is only for the U.S., like SBA loans, there are similar things in other countries. Local banks and governments often have programs to help small businesses too. Our course has lots of info about these options. So, the way we teach will still help you out.
+ Will this course continue to be updated?
Yes! There are updates coming, and all updates are free for 1 year.
+ How much more is in the course vs. what you already put on your blog and social media?
Think of a blog post like a short chapter from a book, while the Small Biz Buying Course is better than a college class. The course dives deep into lots of stuff, with examples, checklists, and videos for every strategy. Blogs are simple and focus on one thing. But the course is exciting and made to help you buy your first business using easy strategies you can use again and again.
+ If I purchase the course now, can I upgrade to the Acquisition Academy later?
Yep, we'll take $2,000 off the cost of the Mastermind if you've already done the course. It's actually the easiest way to join the Mastermind later. Since you're already putting in effort and we know you're serious, you won't have to wait in line.
+ Will this work for someone who is not in the “business” world?
Yes, it works for all kinds of people, like accountants, singers, people with jobs, and teenagers. You don't have to know a lot about business. Its probably better if you don't. That way, you are not spending time unlearning to learn. Everything we teach is based on basic business ideas that work everywhere, not just for certain industries.
+ Is the course worth $2,000?
The strategies in this course are what I and many others have used to buy businesses and make lots of money. I can't promise you'll have the same success. Life doesn't come with guarantees. Let's say you join the course, spend $2,000, and buy a business using one of our strategies without using much of your own money. If that business makes you just $5,000 a month, that's $60,000 a year for you. Where else can you find a 30x return on investment?
+ How much time will it take to complete the course?
You can take the course at your own speed. Finish one lesson, then move to the next whenever you're ready. We suggest spending about 4 weeks on it, but you can go faster if you want. There are around 10 hours of videos split into 7 parts. It might seem like a lot, but it goes quicker than you think.
+ What if I already am a business owner? Will the course still work for me?
Do you still want more businesses? Some people who already own businesses have taken our course to help them get more businesses or make their current ones better.

Own businesses, grow wealth,
​change your life.
