New Podcast: How to Buy a Business Using Retirement Funds (Without Early Withdrawal Fees)

Hello SMB Deal Hunters!

I’m excited to share a new interview with Jeremy Ames, the co-founder and CEO of Guidant Financial.

Guidant Financial is the industry leader in 401K business financing, helping aspiring business owners buy businesses using their retirement funds (without any early withdrawal fees).

Guidant has helped 30,000 business owners secure $7 billion in funding over the past 20 years.

Today's issue is sponsored by SMB Diligence, the platform I helped start for matching business buyers with vetted legal counsel and Quality of Earnings providers.

PRESENTED BY SMB DILIGENCE

Here’s Why You Shouldn’t Skip Due Diligence…

A friend of mine put a business under LOI and asked me for my advice.

I recommended he contract a 3rd party due diligence partner to rebuild the company's P&L from scratch.

Turns out their EBITDA was off by 2x 😳

Enter SMB Diligence.

SMB Diligence is the platform I helped start for matching business buyers with vetted diligence providers, from M&A lawyers to Quality of Earnings providers.

Their network of experts has worked on hundreds of small business transactions (including many from the SMB Deal Hunter community).
