Would you rather spend three years building a business from scratch, or buy one that's already paying out every month?
There's a whole market most founders never see. Websites, SaaS tools and digital products change hands every single day, some of them for millions.
I sat down with someone who's brokered over $120 million of these deals. We got into what buyers are really paying for, why two businesses making identical profit can sell for double the price, and the million dollar purchase that went to zero overnight.
I'm joined by Mike Swigunski, employee number four at Empire Flippers, the world's largest marketplace for buying and selling online businesses. He helped grow it to a 100 person remote team, brokered over $120 million in acquisitions, and is a number one bestselling author and TEDx speaker.
He's now building Dividends, a platform that lets everyday investors own a share of cash flowing online businesses.
