Show Notes

You'd think a CPA with six years at a Big Four firm and four years in investment banking would catch every red flag in a small business acquisition, right? 


Wrong. 


Rushi missed three big ones on his first deal. 


He overpaid on the franchise.


He didn’t realize 25% of the franchise’s global locations were packed into his backyard. 


And the business had to close for four months a year, which sounds great until your GM quits because they can’t afford to go all winter without a paycheck.


That was just deal #1. He was crazy enough to go back for round 2…

Here's what makes this episode worth watching...


🔥 How his second deal ended up being a one-man business with 90% margins (and how he grew it 20% in the first year)

🔥 How he brought his first acquisition to break even (after a disastrous start)

🔥 Why he’s going all in on business acquisition (and his third acquisition target)
