I'm attempting to buy customer base and assets from a couple of manufacturing entities where owners are retiring. This is my first buy and the objective is to get the combination up to 500K cash flow to allow for training of next generation. Anyone have experience with 2-3 deals prior to owning a company?

I would love to connect and discuss strategies for doing this. The biggest issue you are going to have is from a financing standpoint and getting lenders comfortable with you acquiring multiple businesses at once. However, we have had success putting these structures together. You can reach me here or directly at redacted

Agree with ^redacted‌ and others who agree with him. In biz acquisitions: Culture eats strategy for breakfast.
