Buy a business instead of building one from scratch.
Business acquisitions are the smarter, faster way to own something that already works.

In this episode of The Creative Dealmaker Podcast, I sit down with entrepreneur and investor Carlos Reyes—with Pat Hilton joining us in the studio. We talk about what makes business buying so powerful, especially in today’s market—and why most private equity firms won’t touch the kinds of deals YOU should be looking at.

If you’re tired of startup headaches and want cash flow, customers, and systems from day one… this conversation is for you.
