Eric is concerned after 18 months of looking. Should he be? Can he do more?

Firstly, in the video, I mention a business broker. His actual name is Curt Maier. Sorry Curt!
Eric writes to me because he’s been looking for a year and a half and is concerned.
Should he be?
What is Eric doing to find a business and is there something that can speed up this process?
I explore the market, the role of brokers and how much of the market they can really access for you and more.

I am evaluating a Engineering Consulting Firm for acquisition. Are there investors interested in this space? Does anyone have experience with mergers and acquisitions in this space?

Thanks William we are addressing that issue, the owner is planning
to stay on for a period of time. Do you know what percentage ownership is required of the PE operator?
