David Barnett Presents:
16 Week Education and Coaching Program:
Business Buyer Success!
Insurance against a costly mistake.
EMBRACE YOUR DREAM: OWN A BUSINESS
If you're not interested in the risk and unknowns of starting a business, but you know that business ownership is in your future, then this program is for you.
Unfortunately, nearly 90% of first time buyers fail to execute a successful purchase due to mistakes in their process even after a year of looking for a business.
It’s not rocket science, but you do need to know the tricks of the trade. This 16 week education and coaching program is designed for individuals who want to learn how to buy a Main street, lower mid-market business, or a collection of Main street businesses.
This course will help you create your roadmap for finding a business, valuing a business, and executing the transaction. The program combines interactive online seminars, individual tasks and assignments as well as one-on-one coaching.
- You want to buy a business.
- You have dreams of being your own boss and running a small business.
- You own a small business and want to grow through acquisitions.
- You want to get the most of your relationship with business, brokers and bankers.
- You want to avoid costly mistakes (This course has already saved past attendees HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS in mistakes)
- You want to learn how to use debt and/or equity to finance acquisitions.
- You are an employee and are thinking of transitioning into becoming a business owner.
- You have tried to buy a business and want to improve your technique.
- You know you need to act to buy a business but just don’t know where to start to achieve results.
How this course can save you money:
- Avoid over-paying for a business
- Avoid unprofitable businesses
- Avoid wasting years of time looking for a good business
- Avoid unecessary risk by structuring the deal properly
I will teach you how to avoid these and several other
risks when buying a business.
Course overview:
- Buying a business vs. starting one. Why it’s faster, cheaper, and less risky to buy.
- How do you decide what business is right for you?
- Why is it necessary to be in business to ‘get ahead?’
- Understand the motivations of buyers and sellers.
- How to value a business; as a group, we’ll analyze one of the students’ targets!
- How does the process differ when initiated by a buyer rather than when a seller puts his business ‘on the market?’
- How do I find businesses for sale? You will actually identify some businesses and have talks with the sellers during the program.
- How do I make the best use of intermediaries? You’ll go meet some and we’ll compare notes as a group.
- What should I ask sellers at the initial meeting?
- What about financials? What do I need to know about small business financials that nobody is willing to talk about?
- What is the difference between a business, a corporation, and the collection of assets and capital required to create a cash flow? Why is it important to understand this?
- How to identify problems within the business and what to do about it.
- Making offers: what should be in there? We’ll make an offer on one of your targets before the course is over.
- How do I finance the purchase of the business? You’ll speak to bankers about one of your targets.
- Should I buy assets or shares? What’s the difference? Why do my advisors and the seller’s advisors disagree?
- Can I see some examples of actual business deals that you’ve worked on?
- Who do I need on the team to help me with this? You’ll go out and build your team with my guidance.
- What do I need to know about due-diligence? We’re going to do some of that as well.
- This is an educational workshop and coaching program, not a sales seminar. At NO POINT will you be asked to buy anything further. The only thing I am trying to sell you is this opportunity to learn what is not available in any classroom anywhere.
16 Weeks:
- 13+ Hours of group webinar presentations.
- 16+ Hours of individual assignments.
- 9+ Hours of one-on-one coaching.

By the time you complete this program:

- You will have found several prospective targets that match your criteria.
- You may know where you’re headed in the next chapter of your entrepreneurial career.
“Together we learn the concepts, you go out and execute on what you’ve learned, I call to review & coach you along to be sure you understand and are doing things correctly, we all report back our experiences to the group in the next webinar. We do this through 9 cycles of learning over the 16 week program.” -- David Barnett

For the past fifteen years, Mr. Barnett has been building his profile as an expert in the field of small and medium sized enterprises.
From 1998 to 2005, Mr. Barnett was a major account representative with the Yellow Pages. This opportunity gave him an insight into the particular challenges of small & medium businesses as he dealt daily with the owners of these companies. In 2005, Mr. Barnett left the publishing industry to start a small business with a partner. Their venture was an immediate success. After opening, operating and building the business, an opportunity to sell presented itself in late 2006.
From 2005 until 2011, Barnett assembled, managed and then sold a portfolio of investments properties which totaled 10 units at its height.
In 2006, Mr. Barnett began building his professional consulting practice by starting Advantage Liquidity Partners Ltd. ALP Ltd. is a broker of commercial debt solutions for small and medium sized enterprises including commercial mortgages, business loans, factoring facilities, and capital leases. Working with entrepreneurs to build their companies and/or acquire other firms naturally led to the field of business brokerage.
Mr. Barnett joined Sunbelt Business Brokers in 2008. Sunbelt is the world’s largest network of business brokers with over 300 offices on six continents. In 2009, after completing training and testing over an 18 month period in both Canada and the U.S., Mr. Barnett was certified in the field of small business acquisition and sales by an international body. In 2009, Mr. Barnett’s company, ALP Ltd. purchased the Moncton Sunbelt office. During his tenure as a business broker, Mr. Barnett was directly involved in over 35 business purchase transactions. In December of 2011, ALP Ltd. sold the Moncton Sunbelt operation to an associate.
In 2010, Mr. Barnett joined the “Partner” On-Call Network LLC and became the first licensed Business Buyer Advocate in New Brunswick. The POCN system has been refined over a 30 year period to help buyers locate, evaluate and negotiate for the right opportunity.
After completing an extensive training and testing process in 2009, David Barnett has been awarded the CMEA designation (Certified Machinery/ Equipment Appraiser) by the NEBB Institute (www.nebbi.org). CMEAs are located throughout the United States, Canada and several other countries, and are used by charter banks, BDC, other lending institutions, accountants, lawyers, business buyers/sellers and others to provide needed financial information for a variety of reasons.
David now manages the Maritime region for a global financial institution and pursues his passion of teaching and helping others by delivering exciting and engaging workshops and helping business buyers and sellers with direct coaching. Other programs include: Workshops on how to buy a business, workshops for commercial bankers on how to understand and protect their institutions in an SME purchase transaction and banker workshops on understanding machinery & equipment lending.
In 2014, Barnett became the author of Invest Local and Credit Card Advantage, two books which are available on Amazon or from Barnett’s blog site which he maintains at www.InvestLocalBook.com
