You need to decide on your goals, define your criteria, and review potential targets. Your criteria might include product category, recurring revenue, location, and more. The Importance of Filtering Potential Acquisitions Filtering potential acquisitions is crucial to ensure you’re not wasting time and resources on businesses that don’t meet your criteria. This stage is about quickly forming ideas, suspicions, and hypotheses about potential targets. Note these briefly—you can check for evidence later. Importance of Being Quick at This Stage Speed is of the essence when filtering potential acquisitions. The quicker you can narrow down your options, the faster you can move to the due diligence phase. This efficiency can give you an edge over other potential buyers. Does the Business Fit Buying Criteria? Revenue Minimum Revenue Threshold The first criterion to consider is the business's revenue. Set a minimum revenue threshold that aligns with your investment capacity. This threshold will help you eliminate businesses that are too small to be worth your time. Alignment with Your Investment Capacity Ensure the business’s revenue aligns with your financial capacity. It’s crucial to understand how much you can afford to invest and what kind of returns you expect. Category Industry Alignment with Your Expertise Next, consider the industry in which the business operates. It’s beneficial to acquire a business within your area of expertise. This alignment will make the transition smoother and increase the chances of success. Market Trends and Future Prospects Analyze market trends and future prospects. Choose a business in a growing industry with positive market trends. This foresight can significantly impact the business's long-term success. Recurring Revenue Importance of Predictable Income Streams Recurring revenue is a vital factor to consider. Businesses with predictable income streams are generally more stable and less risky. Look for businesses that have a strong base of recurring revenue. Market Fragmentation Advantages of Fragmented Markets A fragmented market can offer significant growth opportunities. In such markets, there is often potential for consolidation, which can lead to increased market share and reduced competition. Potential for Consolidation and Growth Assess the potential for consolidation and growth within the market. If you can combine several smaller businesses into a larger, more competitive entity, this can be a lucrative strategy. Additional Fit Factors Geographic Location
