An Outstanding Mentor Throughout the Acquisition Journey – Highly Recommend Josh Wilson! We had an exceptional experience working with Josh Wilson throughout our acquisition of a local math enrichment brand in WA state. Our high level deal stats were: $2.1m revenues, $800k SDE, $2.7m acquisition price. He was an invaluable partner at every stage of the journey—from initial deal sourcing and CIM evaluation to offer structuring, due diligence, and navigating complex challenges such as lease assignment negotiations. What truly set him apart was his ability to bring clarity, structure, and actionable options to the table, especially when we encountered roadblocks. Rather than simply offering advice, he helped us evaluate alternatives, understand the trade-offs, and make informed decisions that kept the deal moving forward. His practical experience, strategic thinking, and solution-oriented approach were instrumental in helping us navigate the complexities of the acquisition process and ultimately get to a successful close. I cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone considering acquiring a business. Having an experienced, thoughtful mentor in your corner makes a tremendous difference, and he delivered that value consistently throughout our journey. We are now in the process of acquiring another education business in the WA state area and are actively leveraging Josh's expertise in helping us thinking through building a roll-up education platform, and capturing post acquisition synergies as well.

SMB Market is a very good site for searching for a business. I am not very tech-savvy, and I have been able to figure it out...

I was introduced to SMB Market through the Acquisition Ace program, and it quickly became my go-to search tool. I ultimately found the business I acquired through the platform—a $1 million deal with $305,000 in SDE. SMB Market does a fantastic job compiling listings from smaller sites, making my daily search much faster and more efficient. I would HIGHLY recommend SMBMarket for any first-time searchers!

Only been on the platform a few weeks and I find myself spending more and more time on it! Of course it pulls deals I would have never found on BIZBUYSELL and the learning hub is better than courses I've paid for! Then there's the weekly calls! Josh knows his stuff! This week was a lending expert that helped me see a few more option with creative financing and how to structure the deals to get them accepted by the banks. I can't say enough good stuff about this platform! Thanks Josh!

I just recently got into searching for small business acquisition opportunities and I am truly grateful to have access to a tool like SMBMarket.com! The aggregation of deals across multiple other platforms, automated search updates, and the calculators are huge assets to someone looking to find and evaluate deals.

Great site. Combines searches form many places in a great format. Couldn’t have closed without it!

Highly recommend for those in search mode!! SMB Market is my daily go-to search engine that feeds my acquisition pipeline & helps me keep my deals organized. Really like the deal calculator for figuring out high-level financials & net take-home. Great addition!

I am very satisfied with SMB Market and would definitely recommend subscribing to the platform. One of the biggest benefits is that it pulls listings from a wide range of other business-for-sale platforms. As a result, I regularly discover new listings, brokers, and sources that I may not have found on my own. The deal calculator is also extremely helpful. It allows me to see key deal metrics instantly, and because it is interactive, I can test different assumptions and scenarios as I evaluate opportunities. Another major value is the weekly calls with the founder Josh Wilson. They are highly educational, and Josh brings a thoughtful and insightful perspective to business acquisitions. He does not only focus on the tangible aspects of the acquisition entrepreneurship, but also on the intangible factors, which often play a major role in whether an acquisition succeeds. Plus, call recordings are an on-going great source. Overall, SMB Market has been a very useful resource in my acquisition search, and I would highly recommend it to anyone serious about buying a business.
