Acquiring a Seasonal Business Before Low Season - Advice Needed
August 11, 2025
by a searcher in Denver, CO, USA
I’m curious if anyone here has closed on a seasonal business right before its slow period.
In my case, it’s a smaller deal, and my biggest concern is the cash flow squeeze the business would face right out of the gate. I’d love to hear how you’ve approached: timing the close to reduce risk and negotiating working capital
Any insights, stories, or “lessons learned” would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks everyone!
