Real Business - Due Diligence Deep Dive with Elliott Holland

Let’s Buy a Business

Elliott and I dive into a real deal that was for sale. Elliott has evaluated 1,000’s of businesses and has lots of tools and tricks for due diligence on a business. We change the numbers on a percentage basis to keep things anonymous and this is not for sale anymore.

What’s fun here is that Elliott is more about where the business is today and the risks and I’m more about the growth opportunities and where the business can be.
