Through acquiring other companies, entrepreneurs can quickly expand their reach, diversify their offerings, and tap into new markets, often at a lower cost than trying to achieve the same growth through start-ups and building from scratch.
Michael Byars, the successful entrepreneur behind a $140M business empire and founder of Acquisition CEO, is a prime example of the power of mergers and acquisitions.
Acquisition CEO launched a mastermind program and course, which leverages Michael's extensive 20-year experience in acquiring, scaling, and exiting companies for maximum value. This program offers an exclusive opportunity to gain valuable insights and knowledge on the art of growing a business through mergers and acquisitions.
The Mastermind program empowers entrepreneurs to understand the strategic benefits of acquiring established companies, providing them with the necessary tools to identify potential target companies, negotiate favourable deals, and unlock optimal value for their businesses. With this program, business owners can confidently steer their ventures towards growth and success.
Michael Byars is teaching aspiring entrepreneurs how to replicate his remarkable success, but what is it that sets him apart and qualifies him to do so?
Michael embarked on his entrepreneurial journey in rural South Carolina at the age of 19. From humble beginnings, he founded a tech business, taking the company from 2 locations to an impressive 10,000 endpoints, generating $40M/year in revenue.
He then set his sights on rescuing a struggling restaurant, taking it from $50k in net profit to over $1M/year net within the first 2 years, transforming it into a thriving enterprise. He then bought a similar restaurant that was netting a loss and was able to quickly grow it to over $1M in profit in the first 12 months.
Michael leveraged the profits from the sale of his businesses to acquire an array of properties, including single-family homes, commercial buildings, and bolt-on companies in plumbing, HVAC, and property management.
In 2020, he added an e-commerce company to his portfolio and, within six months, skyrocketed its revenue from $1.3M to $10M.
Today, Michael's impressive portfolio boasts 20 companies generating a whopping $140M/year in revenue. He is also the co-founder of a leading business acquisition specialist firm, helping entrepreneurs acquire, scale, and sell 7 and 8-figure businesses. Over the past year, he has trained over 350 ambitious entrepreneurs on cutting-edge market strategies, leading to more than $60M worth of deals for students in the program. This has the potential to yield profits of over $15M for these entrepreneurs and their families.
Michael's success in the mergers and acquisitions space is a testament to his ability to recognize opportunities and leverage his operational acumen to create value quickly. His journey has been characterized by a series of breakthroughs, from his first acquisition of a failing restaurant to a serial entrepreneur offering coaching and consulting in the mergers and acquisitions space.
