leverage: My Fight To Save A Business Legacy

What happens when the business you just acquired suddenly loses 60% of its revenue overnight? When cultural issues you never spotted during due diligence threaten to sink your investment? And that $3M bank loan you personally guaranteed? It's still there, waiting to be paid.


Follow my journey from successful engineer and operations expert to a first-time business acquirer facing catastrophic failure. I made every mistake in the acquisition playbook—overpaying based on outdated financials, missing red flags in company culture, and underestimating the capital needed to turn things around.

This isn't just a survival story. It's a blueprint for avoiding the devastating pitfalls that trap most new business owners. Learn the exact due diligence steps I should have taken, the financing structures that would have protected my personal assets, and the leadership approaches that eventually saved the business when everything seemed lost.



Don't risk your financial future on an acquisition mistake that could have been prevented.
