How To Buy A Business
About this Event
Hosted by Benjamin Engel, Malani Mitchell, and Allura Engel
Are you ready to take the leap into business ownership but unsure where to start? Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, an investor looking for opportunities, or a corporate professional wanting to transition into ownership, this event is for you.
Million Dollar Acquisition is a story-driven, interactive experience that walks you through the entire business buying process—from finding the right company to making an offer, negotiating, securing financing, and successfully closing the deal.
This one-of-a-kind event follows the journey of three key players:
- John, a business owner ready to retire after 25 years in the HVAC industry
- Michael, an experienced HVAC professional determined to buy his own company
- Sandy, a corporate executive looking to invest in a business and leverage her business acumen
Through live-action storytelling and interactive group exercises, you’ll step into the shoes of a business buyer and experience firsthand what it takes to successfully acquire and grow a business.
