If you’re looking for the best business to buy, this is it.

In this video, I break down the business model that gives you recurring revenue, high margins, minimal day-to-day involvement, and stays strong even when the economy gets ugly.

We’ll cover why self-storage (and businesses like it) are the closest thing to a hands-off cash-flow machine you can own, and why smart buyers are targeting it right now.

✅ In this video you’ll learn:

Why recurring revenue beats “one-and-done” sales businesses

The profit margins most people don’t realise are possible

How this model stays recession-proof (even when consumers cut spending)

What makes it so hands-off / low-staff / low-stress

The key numbers to look for before you buy

Simple ways to increase revenue fast after acquisition

If you want a business that pays you every month, doesn’t need you on site daily, and holds value through downturns… you’ll want to watch this all the way through.

Thinking about buying a pest control business? You’re looking at one of the most underrated, recession-resistant cashflow machines out there, and in this video I’ll show you exactly why AND how to buy one the smart way.

Road to £1M EBITDA, a dealmaker who’s scaling through acquisition the real way: by starting before he felt “ready.”

Mitch didn’t come from a traditional M&A background. No long track record, no decades of experience, no secret head start. Just the decision to learn fast, take action, and buy his first business. Since then, he’s completed a couple of acquisitions and is building real momentum toward the £1M EBITDA mark.

In this episode, we unpack:

• How Mitch went from zero experience to closing his first deals
• The mindset shifts that matter more than spreadsheets early on
• What he looked for in his first acquisitions (and what he’d avoid now)
• The messy, real-world parts of doing deals nobody posts on LinkedIn
• How acquisition-led growth is changing his timeline, and his confidence
• The next moves on his Road to £1M EBITDA

If you’re sitting on the sidelines thinking you need more knowledge, more capital, or more time before you can buy a business, Mitch’s story is your proof that you don’t. You just need a path and the courage to start walking it.

ou can’t TAX your way to GROWTH.

In this episode, we break down what the latest budget really means for founders, operators, and dealmakers, and why higher taxes rarely translate into stronger economies or healthier businesses. We get practical about how to win anyway: using AI to drive efficiency, protect margins, and uncover opportunities faster than your competitors, and using M&A as a growth engine when organic routes get squeezed.
