#784‌ ‌Crucial Steps for Small Business Acquisition Success

SEGMENT‌ ‌1 with Elliot Holland,‌ ‌‌starting‌ ‌at‌ ‌0:00‌:‌ ‌ ‌ I spend a lot of my time these days helping business owners buy and sell companies. Almost always, buyers and sellers are never prepared for the process.

Elliott Holland is a Harvard Business School alum & expert in the small business acquisition space.  Elliott helps entrepreneurs do two very important things:  (1) execute great small business acquisitions and (2) kick bad deals out quickly, saving time and money.  He provides an audit-like product called a Quality of Earnings (QoE) to verify the numbers for the messy & unaudited financials of the typical small business.  He also advises clients through the entire business acquisition process.

SEGMENT‌ ‌2 with Jennyfer Crawford-Williams,‌ ‌‌starting‌ ‌at 11:45‌:‌ ‌ ‌ I always love a business owner who focuses locally, especially in her hometown. What is it like starting, running, and supporting businesses in Detroit, Michigan?

Jennyfer Crawford-Williams has single-handedly made shopping small and supporting local a really big deal in her hometown, Detroit, Mich. It all began in 2014 with her branding and events firm – Ask Jennyfer. She earned attention for her small business showcase All Things Detroit, a massively popular event that returns to Detroit’s Historic Eastern Market every Spring and Fall.
