Buying a business is one of the smartest ways to become an entrepreneur — if you do it right. The opportunity is real, but so is the risk. A business acquisition isn’t won on enthusiasm; it’s won on due diligence, financial clarity, and a plan that lenders and investors trust. That’s exactly what I help you build.
For more than a decade, I’ve worked with entrepreneurs, executives, investors, and searchers to create acquisition-ready business plans that support SBA loans, bank financing, investor raises, and partner buy-ins. I don’t just write plans — I help buyers understand the deal they’re stepping into.
When I create an acquisition business plan, I focus on one core question:
Does this deal make sense — financially, operationally, and strategically?
How I Approach Business Acquisition Plans
Acquisition plans are different from startup plans.
You’re not building from zero — you’re stepping into something that already exists.
That means your plan must address:
- Historical performance and trends
- Transfer of ownership risk
- Customer concentration
- Management transition
- Cash flow sustainability
- Debt service and financing structure
- Growth opportunities post-acquisition
I build acquisition plans that connect the past to the future — showing lenders and investors exactly how the business transitions from the seller to you.
Types of Business Acquisition Plans I Create
I support buyers across nearly every acquisition scenario, including:
Buying an Existing Business
- Lender-Ready Acquisition Business Plans
- SBA Business Acquisition Plans
- Bank-Financed Acquisition Plans
Deal Structure & Financing
- Seller Financing Acquisition Plans
- Partner Buyout & Shareholder Exit Plans
- Management Buyout (MBO) Plans
- Search Fund & Independent Sponsor Plans
Growth Through Acquisition
- Roll-Up & Holding Company Strategies
- Add-On Acquisition Plans
- Platform Investment Plans
Whether you’re buying a small main-street business or building a multi-company platform, I tailor the plan to the exact structure of your deal.
What Makes My Acquisition Plans Different
Most acquisition plans focus only on the purchase.
I focus on what happens after the purchase.
When I build your acquisition plan, I cover:
- Transition strategy from seller to buyer
- Operational improvements in the first 12 months
- Cost controls and margin expansion opportunities
- Revenue growth levers you can actually pull
- Conservative financial modeling — not wishful thinking
- Risk mitigation for customer, staff, and vendor retention
I don’t sugarcoat deals.
I stress-test them.
What You Get When I Build Your Acquisition Plan
Every acquisition project I take on includes a financing- and execution-ready roadmap, typically including:
- Acquisition-focused executive summary
- Target company overview and performance analysis
- Market position and competitive landscape
- Transition and integration plan
- Use of funds and deal structure breakdown
- 3–5 year post-acquisition financial projections
- Cash flow and debt service coverage analysis
- Growth and exit strategy
Most business acquisition plans range from $1,000 to $3,000, depending on deal size, financing complexity, and whether investors or multiple entities are involved.
Who I Work With
I work with:
- First-time buyers purchasing their first company
- Corporate professionals transitioning into ownership
- Entrepreneurs growing through acquisition
- Investors building portfolios of operating businesses
- Search fund operators and independent sponsors
If you’re serious about buying a business, I help you walk into that deal with clarity instead of assumptions.
Why Business Acquisition Plans Matter
Buying a business is one of the largest financial decisions most people will ever make.
A strong acquisition plan doesn’t just help you get financing — it helps you avoid:
- Overpaying
- Underestimating risk
- Misjudging cash flow
- Walking into operational surprises
My job is to help you see the full picture before you sign.
