This course has been designed and built for anyone who either wants to…
1) Launch a career into distressed private equity or turnaround/ restructuring & wants to be able to talk intelligently to potential employers
2) Already runs a private equity fund and wants to expand into buying distressed businesses
3) Wants to start up a distressed private equity fund
4) Looking to use their own balance sheet to buy distressed businesses
I’m under the assumption that you don’t have a full grasp on the nuances of this unique space in the financial world but are very intrigued with the possible ROI’s that come from successful distressed turnarounds. Here I will walk you through how to not only minimize your risks with processes/tools that I use on a daily basis but also how avoid bad deals and what to do when you find a deal that makes sense as a turnaround candidate.
I have specifically aimed this course at anyone looking to acquire SMB’s in the $100M revenue or less range. This process will work on firms as low as $3M in revenue as anything higher, will get too complex from an ownership/ tax perspective and anything lower won’t have enough support from senior creditors to make it out of trouble. This is industry agnostic course but will be more applicable to any company with a banking relationship.
At our firm, with myself at the helm in a CRO or CEO role, we have successful executed dozens of deals over the last several years either with our own capital or partnering with other private equity firms. Not every deal is a success, so learn from my mistakes and use my experience to steer you out of trouble. I would love to partner with you in the future if your are looking for capital &/or an operational partnership.
I’ve packed a lot of value into this course that not only includes 6 modules & over 4 hours of recordings where I walk you through the process but I also offer 1 hour of my time to ask me any specific question you have regarding your acquisition and turnaround of a troubled company.
