Welcome to the “30 Days to ETA” series with Tip of the Spear Ventures. Within the next 30 posts, I’ve created a roadmap entrepreneurs can follow to drive toward successfully acquiring their own business – A destination I’d like to call “Success!” We will travel along the journey of sourcing, searching, and ultimately buying a business… for profit. I’m going to outline some of the most efficient routes I found while working within our Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A) framework at Tip of the Spear.
Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition (ETA)
There are thousands of small businesses that are currently for sale, and there will be thousands more coming in the next few years. I’ll share my personal stories to help you maximize your time and money. Along the way, I’ll highlight fuel stops you can take to increase your M&A value regardless of your industry and organization focus. I’ll show you how to work on your search so that you don’t waste time working in your search.

Let’s make this easy, or “financially sound” if you will. I’ll show you the steps to the successful acquisition of a business, and how to get there quickly and profitably.
What advice would I give my 25-year old self? Get to Mergers & Acquisitions faster in your career path (It’s the most fun I’ve had in my entire career!)
Sam Palazzolo, Managing Director @ Tip of the Spear Ventures
As part of our mission of teaching the Entrepreneur through Acquisition (ETA) leader how to make their search a valuable asset (not just believe it has value). The goal is to take you through steps of how to source, search, and ultimately buy a business. In my years as an entrepreneur, in both startups and M&A, I have seen many common trends – some successful and unfortunately unsuccessful business owners. In this 30 Days to ETA series we will discuss both — and other topics in between — in easy-to-understand and simple terms. I want you to understand how you can buy a business and SHOULD do so now rather than later.
Go Fast Alone… OR Go BIG Together!
Why would I share this ETA information? It’s simple… If you like what you read then you can do one of three actions:
- DIY – You can go out and attempt to buy a business on your own. Afterall, you’ll know just enough to be dangerous!
- JOIN ME – I’m always looking for top-tier entrepreneurial talent that wants to own/run a small business. Partnering with you is my best strategy to grow our M&A practice. You can go fast alone, or you can go big as a team! Drop me an email at Recruiting@TipoftheSpearVentures.com.
- DO NOTHING – You’ll gain a lot of valuable information here in this 30 Days to ETA Series. Maybe you’re the type that likes to learn and never take action?
I hope you enjoy the series!
