Description

In this episode, Liz and Eamonn tackle the often misunderstood role of business brokers in the business acquisition process. While some buyers view brokers as roadblocks or gatekeepers, the hosts explain how experienced brokers can actually accelerate deals, reduce friction, and protect both sides of the transaction.

🔍 Topics Covered:

  • Why business brokers get a bad rap—and what they’re actually hired to do

  • The key traits of a high-quality broker: experience, transparency, organization

  • How to handle deals with inexperienced or disorganized brokers

  • Strategies for buyers to get better information and reduce risk during due diligence

  • Why partnering with reputable brokers (like those at Village Wellth) improves deal flow

Whether you're actively buying a small business or just starting your acquisition journey, this episode gives you a practical framework to evaluate broker relationships and navigate deals with confidence.

🎙️ Tune in now and learn how to work with brokers—not against them—for a smoother acquisition experience.
