Amazing

Just 15 minutes in and enjoying this a lot. I wanted to say that as I learn more about all of this that the most amazing part of it all is how owners have all been so happy to help and to point me in the right direction or to share their experiences. It is so heartwarming and genuine. Thank you both for this discussion!

Where can we find that letter writing resource? Thank you

Good

thank you for having my mom will, your and amazing person

Great content Will. Greatly appreciated!! This podcast is absolutely motivating me towards being an acquisition entrepreneur

Great interview, I was expecting a question on how he finds his deals weather through a broker or off market deals? Can we have his handle pls.

Private sector medicine owned by big corp....smh....shameful!

28:35 VA for Off-market Deals...are there any recommended companies to use?

Good to see how Renan discovered the world of SMB acquisitions 💡

So what’s better and independent sponsor or a holdco?

Thank you so much for making a video like this Will. So inspiring. I'm 27 and in the process of purchasing a Mathnasium Franchise in Chicago using funds from my book "When the Ocean Waved Hello". I start med school in August.

Very good information❤ kudos to you guys

I’m looking to acquire an accounting firm. This was a great interview with a ton of helpful insights. New follower!

Reminder for July 2025 is set if Will doesn't invite Renan I will harass Will to bring Renan back hahah! WOW! what an episode and what a guy! Thank you will for bring all these people they're fuel me personally

Hi Acquiring Minds Team, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the incredible content you produce on your RUclips channel. Your insights and the knowledge shared by your guest speakers have been immensely useful for me. The way they discuss buying small businesses is truly enlightening. Your channel has been a great inspiration for me and others, and today’s interview was particularly awesome! I would love to know more about what a VA is and could you also provide details on the two people who assisted Renan in finding off market deals? Please keep up the excellent work-your content is making a significant impact! Best regards, Kingsley

Hoping Renan comes back for Part 2 in 1 year

Renan had me at NYC & Military!

Great, truthful interview by an outstanding person. Thank you.

Outstanding interview. An absolute masterclass in SMB ownership.

Excellent listening and actually taking notes.

another good book on porter i really like is "understanding Michael porter: on competition and strategy"

This is one of the best episodes yet, Will. I was especially impressed during when he was discussing Michael Porter's five forces how closely you were paying attention to the details there, and contrasting that approach with the typical financial review that most independent searchers are doing. Very well done, and Acquiring Minds continues to be on the shortlist of the best podcasts I listen to.

Good info

This interviewer sounds remarkably condescending and uninterested at times throughout the interview

New to the channel. Great video! I'm trying to figure out if buying a business is right for me.

Asking employees to stop smoking (inside) is a high ask. Smoking is combination of addiction + habit. It would be hard for anyone to break regardless of being employee or not.

Indeed he's a good communicator, but I wonder why he called himself an introvert.

Wow! Amazing interview. I think I found my calling.

absolutely love this - killer mindset!

I listen to my podcasts through RUclips music and RUclips. Anyway you could include your sponsors in the description or in the podcast. I never thought I would ask for that from a podcast lol but I am deep into search and the sponsors seem to have real value

Great interview

I see the general point he was making about opportunity cost, but just mathematically, it was odd hearing him talk about how the difference in salary was just 401k contributions.

Really interesting interview, great listen! It's very funny...early in the interview this guy speaks as if he Forest Gumped his way to success, but clearly he made most of his own "luck" through hard work and having the appropriate mindset. Definitely wish I'd had his mindset when I was his age. I just wish he would strike or at least limit his use of the word "like"

Health over wealth my man-. You can not buy good health.

EV is going nowhere. Gas powered vehicles are the cleanest they've ever been, and will continue to be the cheapest personal transportation option for probably another 75-100 years.

Another veteran rocking it in eta. Love to hear it. Also like the perspective from buying a lower SDE business, because it’s not the traditional route.

Awesome pod as always. Will always asks excellent questions. Keep it going!

Bussiness is tough. Not like what Codie Sanchez tries to portray.

Moral to the story, her business was saved by Spanish speaking immigrants, do not underestimate or make unfounded generalization about this group of HARD WORKING people which drive billions of dollars of economic productivity in our economy. Additionally if she really wants to accelerate growth she should consider giving her manager "sweat equity" at some point.

Hey Will! You need to have Kinza Azmat back on to tell everyone what happened to her venture.

Don’t know how I came across this but enjoyed the interview. Wish you asked him if he regrets making the purchase vs starting from scratch.

Another amazing episode. Thank you

In these type of investor deals, do you still sign as PG on the SBA Loan?

Go Elliott!

Is the seminar "Anatomy of an LOI" available in recording? I would appreciate it if you could share the link

Great interview. Thanks Elliott for being so open and inspiring with all your knowledge and experience!!

How do you do 5% down on a 504green? Seems 10% is the minimum?

great chat 💬 thank you to you both.

Will always asks great questions, making things clear and to the point
