Book Description
Purchasing a business is a major life commitment. For many, it will be the largest financial transaction of their lives. The risks involved are considerable; the potential for financial disaster all too real. In Business Buyers Beware, Drew Ford draws upon a lifetime of experience in the area of small business acquisitions, sales, and operations. He provides the reader with the tools needed to minimize those risks and maximize the opportunity for successfully buying a profitable business. The process of buying a business is often plagued by misinformation, misdirection and confusion. Mr. Ford's book is brimming with little known facts and insider tips that provide potential business buyers with the necessary ammunition to lend transparency to that process. The author supplies a host of valuable insights, any one of which could save an unwary entrepreneur tens of thousands of dollars. It is a MUST READ for any prospective small business buyer. Drew Ford is an honors graduate of the University of Texas School of Law and a licensed member of the New Mexico Bar. No longer actively engaged in the practice of law, he currently devotes his professional time to consulting with prospective business buyers. He has been self-employed his entire life, and has owned and operated two separate business brokerages. He has held real estate licenses in both Texas and New Mexico. In addition to his work in buying and selling businesses, he has personally owned and sold a number of his own. A lifelong entrepreneur, Mr. Ford brings his extensive knowledge of business operations, both product and service based, to the arena of small business buying and selling.
