Interests: - Looking for a business to acquire or invest in. - I need the seller's assistance for at least 6 months. - I would like to know the workload, know-how, and profitability of the business, turnover, costs, staff, assets, location, license and the financial statements of the past years.

Interests: - When it comes to investing, acquiring, or providing advice for businesses, I consider several factors that help me make informed decisions. Firstly, I assess the potential for growth in the business. I like to see businesses that operate in stable industries, possess a unique value proposition, and have a track record of consistent revenue growth. - Financial stability is another crucial aspect I look for. I prefer businesses that have a solid balance sheet, manageable debt levels, and a healthy cash flow. - Companies with strong financials indicate a higher likelihood of weathering economic downturns and sustaining profitability. - A strong management team is also key. I pay close attention to leadership qualities, experience, and expertise in the industry. A competent management team should demonstrate a clear vision, effective communication, and a proven ability to execute strategies. Moreover, I evaluate the business's competitive advantage. I gravitate towards companies that have a strong and defensible market position, whether it's through proprietary technology, a unique product, brand recognition, or customer loyalty. Such advantages are essential for long-term success and profitability. - In terms of industries, I have a particular affinity for technology companies, especially those operating in software-as-a-service (SaaS), artificial intelligence, e-commerce, and fintech. These sectors have shown significant growth potential and have disrupted traditional industries with innovative solutions. - On the other hand, I tend to avoid businesses that are heavily reliant on a single customer, have a history of inconsistent performance, or are operating in declining industries. Highly regulated industries with significant legal or compliance risks can also deter me from investing or advising. - In summary, some of the key factors I look for in businesses include growth potential, financial stability, strong management, competitive advantage, and suitability within favorable industries. While I appreciate technology-driven companies, I carefully assess each opportunity on its individual merits rather than categorically preferring or disliking specific businesses or industries.
