SBA Deal Structure - Real Example with Jaryd Krause

Jaryd Krause shares how he went from being a plumber in Australia to buying online businesses (starting on Flippa in 2014) because he wanted a travel-friendly lifestyle. He then breaks down a recent deal where his clients bought a US-based business that helps Amazon sellers get product feedback and saw big upside from systems, team, and expansion opportunities. The acquisition used SBA financing plus a seller note, but the process got messy with legal slowdowns, tax/IRS hiccups, and classic "deal fatigue."

Cybersecurity Horror Stories in Due Diligence and Post-Closing with Nick Akers

Nick Akers started by founding a venture-capital-backed company, then moved into a more "traditional" track leading a manufacturing company before spending ~2.5–3 years doing an ETA-style search. He ultimately acquired an IT services business (STL Communications) and rebranded it to Inzo Technologies, where he focuses heavily on cybersecurity for small/legacy businesses. He sees buyers walking into messy, outdated environments (personal email accounts, weak licensing, no backups/firewalls, passwords shared everywhere) and argues IT + cybersecurity due diligence should be part of every deal. Podcast Nuggies: * Legacy IT is usually a "mess" post-close * Add IT/cyber due diligence before closing * MFA + password manager are non-negotiable * Phishing clicks can wreck you in minutes * USE POSITIVE PAY to approve every expense SMBs are the biggest target for cyber attacks.
