Are you a fit?
You've been thinking about buying a business — maybe you've read a book, listened to a podcast, talked to a broker. You know this is a real path, but you don't know the next concrete step. This program gives you that step: a structured five-week process covering deal sourcing, financial evaluation, and deal structure, alongside fifty people working through the same questions.
The program is designed for mid-career professionals with 5+ years of work experience. You should be comfortable with basic financial statements (balance sheet, income statement, cash flow). No prior ETA or M&A experience required.
