I'm looking for advice purchasing an existing service or hospitality business. Rather than make it a full blown discussion here I'd appreciate a PM to set up a call. I have an MBA and have run nursing homes for the past 15 years so I'm no stranger to Operations, Marketing, P&L responsibility, making payroll, regulations, etc. What I am looking for is advice in a number of areas surrounding the purchasing of a small business:

-Dealing with Business Brokers (or other methods of sourcing a deal)
-Considering Franchise Options
-Financing/SBA Loan, etc.
-Legal Structure

Can't PM you, but I'd be happy to hop on the phone and offer feedback on all of those topics you listed ... feel free to call, text or email me to set something up.
