    Experiencing an Investor Backed ETA Deal // Episode 47 of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco

    Thank you for tuning into another episode of Dealmaking With Laura DiFrancesco! In today's episode, we discuss what it is like to experience an investor-backed ETA deal. We go through the basics of what it entails, the different types of investors, the benefits, challenges, and tradeoffs. We then close off with who best fits this model and when to decide if you are ready to start this journey. Come back next time for more information on buying and selling small businesses!  What You’ll Learn What is an Investor Backed ETA Deal? // A practice as old as commerce itself, now being marketed to MBA students and beyond as a path to entrepreneurship. When and how you’re getting investors involved is important to determining your return on investment versus their return. Who your investors are also determines the general terms and structure availability of your deal.  Roles, Expectations, and Control // All of these aspects will be documented within the corporate governance document of your company, which could be created in many different ways. Corporate structure will be something we talk through with great detail, and then we will communicate with your accountant about financial forecasting.  Benefits of Partnering with PE // The number one benefit is capital. Sometimes this enables someone to buy a business who might have never been able to buy a business themselves. It also might give you the opportunity to finance a deal that may not traditionally be financeable. You also want to make the investor aware that there are benefits on their end of the deal too.  Challenges and Tradeoffs  // With investors there will be more pressure for performance, along with more oversight. Being aligned not only on the investment but on the exit as well is super important so that your expectations are understood. Structuring your relationship around clear communication and trust is a key factor to having success with conversations around your own vision and alignment.  Who this Model Fits Best // If you are someone who wants to become an operator, looking to gain capital, you have experience and you feel comfortable with this level of performance, then this might be a great opportunity for you.  Episode Highlights: [00:00] Intro [03:17] What is an investor backed ETA deal?

    Purchasing a Family Owned Business // Episode 46 of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco

    Thank you for joining us for another episode of Dealmaking With Laura DiFrancesco! In today’s episode, we go over what to expect when acquiring a family owned business. First, finding out the details of who is making all the decisions behind the scenes, then understanding what they want to maintain with the business going forward, and most importantly building trust. Come back in two weeks to see what we have in store for the next episode.  What You’ll Learn Internal Decision Making // Finding out exactly who owns the business is an important first step. It is not always clear who is the sole owner of the business, especially when talking about family owned businesses. This can have a significant impact on the deal. Legacy, Succession Planning, Emotions // It is up to you as the buyer to ask questions regarding the expectations around succession planning and legacy. We want to be as clear as possible to avoid tension and misunderstandings. Prioritizing continuity and making sure the family is comfortable selling the business is extremely important.  Building Trust // For any seller it is going to be very hard to sell their business. It can be a very emotional process, and we want to respect that. Making sure they are comfortable and getting counsel engaged as soon as possible will help to maintain clear communication and make the process as smooth as possible.  Evaluation and Negotiation // Most importantly, maintain a positive relationship. Having counsel that is kind, fair, and respectful can make all the difference. It’s not just financial considerations, it’s emotional ones too. Keeping the buyer informed from the beginning is also important. Some people may have no idea what to expect when it comes to paperwork, so keeping them in the loop from the start can help with preventing anyone from being blindsided or overwhelmed.  Episode Highlights: [00:00] Introduction  [05:44] Internal Decision Making  [10:07] Legacy, Succession Planning, Emotions [15:00] Ad Break [16:00] Building Trust [21:36] Ad Break [22:35] Evaluation and Negotiation [28:17] Closing Statements  Resources Mentioned Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Waitlist // https://lauradifrancesco.co/eta-landing-page For free legal guides and resources click HERE.

    Acquiring a Government Contract // Episode 45 of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco

    Thank you for tuning in for another episode of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco! On today’s episode, Laura goes into the process of acquiring a government business. The most important thing is knowing the details of the contracts, and having a legal team by your side the whole way through will help tremendously. Also knowing exactly what business you are getting into is super important because you need to understand what kind of contracts you can be eligible for and the qualifications that are behind them.  What You’ll Learn Important Factors and Different Facets Coming into Play  // Is there a risk? Is there a bidding process? Is it subject to funding? These are all questions to be asked when deciding what type of government funding could be used for your business. It is very important to look at the actual contract and see what kind of provisions they have in regards to termination and funding.  Using Uniqueness of the Business to Your Advantage // When working with government contracts, there are benefits to being a small disadvantaged business. As the buyer, you must then consider if you will be able to continue to get those benefits once having bought the business.  Contract Nuances when Transferring the Business // In a stock purchase we are looking for change of control provisions and assignment provisions. In regards to time, you can inquire for an estimate but ultimately it is out of your control.  Mitigating Risk in the Purchase Agreement  // We want to make sure that there are strong representations and warranties regarding regulatory compliance and the knowledge of the renewal of contracts. We really want to make sure that the business that we are buying is what we really think it is.  Contracts are Everything // Getting legal help involved as soon as possible because they are most familiar with the process and possible nuances involved. Along with that, working rapidly on due diligence to prepare for closing. Time is money, and working with government contracting will ultimately lead to a longer process, so the more efficient you can be, the quicker you can close.  Episode Highlights: [00:00] Important Factors [07:00] Risks and Obligations Unique to your Business  [10:43] Ad Break [11:42] Contract Nuances  [14:14] Mitigating Risk in Purchase Agreements [18:44] Closing Statements  Resources Mentioned Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Waitlist // https://lauradifrancesco.co/eta-landing-page For free legal guides and resources click HERE.

    Timeline of Buying a Business // Episode 44 of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco

    Thank you for joining us on today’s episode of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco! In this episode we discussed the general timeline of buying a business. Although there are many factors into the length of time it takes to close a deal, Laura is able to give a solid idea of what to expect. She also goes into detail about what those different factors are. Laura then goes through the different phases, including but not limited to the search fund, negotiation of documents, and preparations for closing. Then, we take a look into the most common delays; lack of meaningful progress, financing, unexpected litigation, and response timing from all parties. Come back next week to learn about acquiring a government contract!  What You’ll Learn General Timeline Expectations  // Once you are under LOI and if you are already engaged with a lender, expect it to take 60 to 90 days. With that said, there are a ton of different factors going into it from the sellers side and it all depends on their schedule as well. If you are fundraising or it is a licensed business, it will most likely take longer. By starting legal right away, your timeline will be condensed. You want to spend money investing in the business proactively to get a higher return on your investment.  Different Phases // First comes the search fund, looking at what there is online as well as doing their own proprietary search is where we see the highest success rates. Next comes negotiation of initial documents; the non-disclosure agreement and letter of intent. Time is money, being honest and transparent about the time it takes but moving forward as quickly as you can is the best way to mitigate the risk that the time will cost you so much money. Then comes preparation for closing, this typically takes a few days. All documents need to be prepared to be signed and a closing date must be set in order to pull payoff letters and to have the lender able to sign as well.  Common Delays // The number one delay is lack of meaningful progress. Number two is financing. As of lately there has been a lot of geopolitical uncertainty and politics playing more of a role. Occasionally there is also unexpected litigation. Responsiveness and response time coming from both parties is a huge factor as well, along with contract negotiation.  Episode Highlights: [00:00] Intro [04:15] What to Expect [06:30] General Timeline  [10:48] Ad Break [11:45] Phase One - Search Fund [14:00] Phase Two - Negotiating  [25:05] Phase Three - Preparing for Closing  [29:06] Ad Break [30:05] Common Delays  [38:20] Third-Party Consent [41:54] Closing Statements and Outro  Resources Mentioned Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Waitlist // https://lauradifrancesco.co/eta-landing-page For free legal guides and resources click HERE.

    Post Closing Legal Support: What Happens After a Business is Sold? // Episode 43 of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco

    Thank you for joining us for another episode of Dealmaking With Laura DiFrancesco! We had a technical issue with our camera during this recording, so bair with us this episode!  In today’s episode we go through how you can make your post closing as smooth as possible, and how we play a role in that as your legal team. Most people think that once the deal is closed, everything is ready to go, but that is really just the beginning of the journey. Laura covers the importance of observing and absorbing as much knowledge from the already existing team, how to manage change and continuity, post-closing seller involvement, and expiring reports. Join us next week to learn about the timeline of buying a business! What You’ll Learn It’s Time to Absorb and Observe // Now that you have bought the business, it is time to become familiar with the market. Take time to get to know your team and the business down to its core. Although you might have plenty of ideas prior to closing, this is now the time to really put them into action and see what actually works. This is the best time for knowledge transition.  Continuity and Change Management  // When the company is passed into your hands, current employees are immediately questioning if their job is at risk and how this could possibly negatively affect them. This is when the importance of employee agreements and letters to employees comes into play; you want to have this prepared pre-closing to minimize running into issues in the future.  Length of Seller Involvement // Sometimes you may buy a business and want the seller to stay in place 3-5 years following the closing, other times you may want them out immediately. It all depends on your strategy and growth. Ultimately it all comes down to what the buyer and seller agree to, and there are pros and cons to everything.  Expiring Report // In our due diligence report post-closing, we like to inform the buyers on any expiring permits or licenses to prevent any unexpected government fines.  Episode Highlights: [00:00] Intro  [02:25] Where the Journey Starts   [06:00] Transition Management [08:12] Continuity and Change Management [10:18] Ad Break   [11:16] Overall Strategy [15:13] Legal Obligations from the Buyers Perspective [17:10] Ad Break [18:08] Post-Closing Obligations [19:20] Potential for Disputes and Litigation  [25:50] Closing Statements and Outro Resources Mentioned Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Waitlist // https://lauradifrancesco.co/eta-landing-page  For free legal guides and resources click HERE. https://deanstreetlaw.com/resources  Unlock your legal roadmap to success with Acquisitions Insights https://lauradifrancesco.co/acquisitioninsights  Connect with Us Follow on Twitter: @LMDiFrancesco // https://x.com/LMDiFrancesco  Follow on Instagram: @lauramdifrancesco and @deanstreetlaw // https://www.instagram.com/lauramdifrancesco?igsh=MXJwYWtmdjJ4NWZncQ== https://www.instagram.com/deanstreetlaw/  Connect on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/lauradifrancesco Our Sister Brands Follow Flourish Coworking Space on Instagram: @flourishwestchester // http://instagram.com/flourishwestchester  Follow Ethereal Farms on Instagram: @etherealfarms // http://instagram.com/etherealfarms  Check out my other podcast We Grow Together on Spotify and Apple Music  Don't miss an episode of "Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco."

    What is a Search Fund? Advice from a Business Acquisition Attorney // Episode 40 of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco

    Thank you for tuning into another episode of Dealmaking with Laura DiFrancesco! Today we covered what the fundamentals of a search fund look like, including how they operate, the phases involved, and the responsibilities of both searchers and investors. Laura emphasizes the importance of aligning interests between searchers and investors, discussing the ethical and legal obligations that come with raising capital. She also highlights the advantages and challenges of using search funds.  What You’ll Learn The Basics of a Search Fund // A search fund is where you raise capital from investors. This can include either yourself as an individual searcher, up to three other people. This then raises capital to fund a full time search. Initially this will cover living expenses and searching costs. When working with an investor, it is important to consider how hands on you would like them to be and how that will impact you and your business.  The Different Phases // The first phase is the search phase. This includes not only building relationships with your potential investors, but also showing up prepared to do the hard work through time and research. The second phase is the acquisition phase. This is when you are under LOI, completing due diligence, negotiating transaction documents, preparing for closing, preparing for your post-closing strategy, and exit strategy. Advantages and Challenges // The number one advantage of a search fund is that it is proven that it provides a significant opportunity for success, especially access to capital. Increased attraction to investors is another, they like to know that they will have a bigger return on their investment because they invested earlier. A challenge could be that it may have a longer time frame.  Episode Highlights: [2:49] What is a search fund? [9:45] Phase one - the search [14:10] Phase two - the acquisition phase  [15:19] Advantages and disadvantages  [18:48] Outro  Resources Mentioned Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Waitlist // https://lauradifrancesco.co/eta-landing-page For free legal guides and resources click HERE.
