30 SECONDS ON WHAT WE DO AND WHO WE DO IT FOR

Who We Work With

Is This You?

First-Time Acquirer

You're ready to stop building someone else's company.

The raises barely cover inflation. The promotions come with more ceiling. You've thought about buying a business for years. You just need the right team to make it happen.

  • You have capital or can qualify for SBA financing
  • You want to own a cash-flowing business, not build one from scratch
  • You don't have the time or network to find the right deal alone
Let's Talk
Growth Buyer

You've built it. Now let's buy the next one.

Organic growth is slow and expensive. Buying a competitor or adding a service line gets you there faster than any marketing campaign ever could.

  • Buy a competitor and consolidate your market
  • Add a complementary service line without starting from zero
  • Acquire a crew, customer base, and revenue on day one
  • Already operating? You may qualify for 100% SBA financing on the acquisition

$225,000 Saved Before Day One

A kitchen and bath company listed at $1.3M. We dug into the financials, found the asking price wasn't supported by the numbers, and negotiated it down to $1.075M.

Then SBA froze lending mid-deal. Most deals die there. We held the seller, held the deal, and got it to close.

The business cash-flowed $14,000 the first full month. S.S. is still running it profitably today.

"Brett found me a deal extremely fast. He led every step of the way which included dealing with my lending, making the process extremely simple for me. He even got the deal extended when the government shut down. I would never buy a business without his advice."

The Growth Play

What Happens When an Operator Acquires

You're doing $2M in revenue with a solid crew and a full customer book. A competitor in the next zip code is doing $1.2M. Same industry, smaller operation, owner wants out.

Because you already operate in the same space, you may qualify for 100% SBA financing on the acquisition. No money out of pocket on the purchase. You absorb their customers, consolidate overhead, and cross-sell your full service menu to their base.

About

Built on Deals, Not Theory

Brett Holcomb has been building businesses since 1994. Over three decades, he has built two eight-figure companies from the ground up, completed 40+ real estate transactions, and closed over $50M in business acquisitions across manufacturing, transportation, assisted living, and home services.

Acquisitions Dept works with buyers and operators across the continental US and across industries. If it cash flows, we can find it, evaluate it, and close it.

I don't teach people what I read in a book. I teach what I've done at the closing table. Every framework, every strategy, every piece of advice comes from deals I've personally closed or walked away from. That's the difference.
