Review #1

BEST OF THREE BOOKS

IN 1997 I BOUGHT THREE BOOKS IN ORDER TO BRUSH UP ON BUYING A BUSINESS. THIS WAS THE BEST OF THE THREE.

THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY WHICH HAPPENED IN 2005 FELL THROUGH AND THE SELLER SOLD TO HIS EMPLOYEE.

I HAVE REREAD SOME OF THE CHAPTERS AS I AM ENTERING ANOTHER PURCHASE. THIS BOOK COVERS MANY MORE ITEMS WITH MORE DETAIL THAN THE OTHER TWO BOOKS I HAVE. THE BOOK STANDS THE TEST OF TIME.




Review #2

Clear, concise, and meaty little book!

This is a simple, very quick read that covers all the basics. I read this as part of an MBA course on buying a small business at Babson College. The book's process and lessons were validated by every business owner and professor who spoke. The best thing about this book is that it gives a great understanding of the PROCESS for buying a business, recognizing that the tiny details of each deal will be unique. As a buyer, it's extremely helpful to feel comfortable that you know what's supposed to happen next.

I augmented reading this book by calling and emailing different business brokers to discuss opportunities and listings they had; there was a whole other level of learning that took place through those conversations and meetings, but I think reading this book is the perfect first step.

Finally, a clear, concise and meaty little book you can use!




Review #3

Great Introduction to Buying A Business

I'm starting a career in business brokerage and looked to this book for knowledge on the subject. It did not disappoint. It is well written and very informative. I liked the fact that the authors are real life business owners/investors speaking from first hand knowledge, not theory. The book was published in 1992 and needs an update. I hope they do because I would definitely buy it.
