Today's guest, Pete Seligman, has been an acquisition entrepreneur for almost 10 years and has acquired five companies in that time. He's based in Sydney. And in 2012, when he first started looking for a company to buy, the terms "acquisition entrepreneur" and "ETA," or "entrepreneurship through acquisition" — he hadn't heard those terms and wasn't aware that this was even a thing. It was more like he and his business partner said to themselves, hey, instead of staying on this corporate track until we retire, let's have an adventure. Let's buy a company. And they did. They bought their first in 2013, an instrumentation supplier to mining companies. And that first acquisition set him on this path that has been really fruitful. And now he's raising awareness of acquisition entrepreneurship in his native Australia. He's got tons of insights and stories from his 10 years buying companies. Really enjoyed my conversation with Pete. And by the way, if you're searching for a company to buy, even if you're not Australian, reach out to him. He's an open guy and eager to help. Here he is, Pete Seligman.
