Entrepreneurs have a problem: startups. Almost all startups either fail or never truly reach a sustainable size. Despite the popularity of entrepreneurship, we haven't engineered a better way to start...until now. What if you could skip the startup phase and generate profitable revenue on day one? In Buy Then Build, acquisition entrepreneur Walker Deibel shows you how to begin with a sustainable, profitable company and grow from there.

You'll learn how to: buy an existing company rather than starting from scratch; use ownership as a path to financial independence; spend a fraction of the time raising capital; find great brokers, generate your own "deal flow", and see new listings early; uncover the best opportunities and biggest risks of any company; navigate the acquisition process; become a successful acquisition entrepreneur; and more.

Buy Then Build is your guide to outsmart the startup game, live the entrepreneurial lifestyle, and reap the financial rewards of ownership now.

This is an excellent excellent resource for a US citizen living in the states with good credit and with around USD 50-150 k available to invest.

the book teaches you how to leverage SBA loans to buy income generating businesses using leverage and to this end is an excellent resource.

HOWEVER, if you are not American or have bad credit (i.e you can't access SBA finance) then the strategy employed and taught in this book may not work for you.

That said it's still an incredible read and worth it if only to get the concept in theory.. I'm American but ive lived outside the states almost my entire adult life so I don't have a US credit score making it hard for me to employ the strategy outlined in the book. That said it was a great mind opener and I'm so glad I listened to it.

Great resource BUT...

I have explored and dabbled in entrepreneurship as a side hustle during my entire adulthood but never took the big risk. This book gave me clarity and confidence that I can put together a plan to pursue having my own business earning a solid income from day 1.

Concrete steps to finally pull the trigger
