    0004 - Is Buying a Business a Good Investment?
    2025/07/14
    In this episode, Tim dives into one of the most common questions he gets asked – "Is buying a business a good investment?" With so many factors to consider, Tim breaks it down from different angles: return on investment, risk, time commitment, and financial independence. Whether you're thinking about purchasing your first business or just curious, this episode gives you a comprehensive look at what this investment really means. Tim is an entrepreneur who believes everyone should explore the opportunities that business and real estate can provide on the path to financial freedom. He owns and operates a wine & liquor store, a software startup, a consulting company, and a growing portfolio of commercial and residential real estate. Tim’s passion for independent business has led him to support dozens of other business owners. For over a decade, he has worked with businesses on strategy, processes, finances, and marketing. These experiences, along with analyzing dozens of other businesses for potential acquisition, have provided Tim with an immense knowledge base to pull from. Tim has appeared on multiple top-tier podcasts in the financial space, such as Bigger Pockets Money and The Freedom Chasers Podcast. [00:01 - 05:18] Return on Investment: Is It Worth the Money? The different ways to calculate returns: ROI, Cash on Cash, and IRR. With 90% financing, Tim’s first business had a 10% ROI, jumping to 30% with his salary. After recouping the initial investment, Tim achieved infinite returns. Businesses offer faster growth and forced appreciation compared to real estate. Businesses allow for higher leverage, meaning more growth potential. [05:19 - 08:50] Risk and Stability: How Much Control Do You Really Have? In business ownership, you control your destiny, unlike stocks and bonds. The myth of business failure overlooks well-established businesses and proper due diligence. With the right research and transition plans, failure risks can be minimized. Businesses with long-term contracts can offer more stability. External factors can impact, but ownership offers the flexibility to adapt quickly. [08:51 - 12:02] Time Commitment: Is It Worth Your Energy? Starting out in a business may require more time and effort but can pay off in the long term. Corporate employees may not match salary right away, but there’s potential for growth. Focus on building systems and scaling – don't just work in the business, work on it. Tim worked full-time initially, then stepped back as the business ran independently. Businesses offer more freedom than jobs once systems are in place. [12:03 - 16:51] Financial Independence: How Can Buying a Business Help? With high financing options, you can use debt to accelerate wealth-building. Business loans typically have 5-10-year terms, enabling quicker equity growth. After the loan pay-down, the business generates more cash flow. Planning for a sale or management change helps pave the way for financial independence. Despite changes, there are still options to leverage financing for business acquisitions.

The more you run your numbers, the more you talk to brokers, the more conversations you have with sellers, the more you'll start to realize that most sellers aren't any smarter than you.” - Tim Delaney “ Don't let people scare you about saying you're just buying a job. Yes, sometimes you are buying a job, but if you have a plan to get outta that job then it is good. Just make sure that you carve out the time to work on the business, not just in the business.” - Tim Delaney

    0002 - Franchise Advice You Can’t Afford To Miss
    2025/07/14
    In this episode, Tim interviews Jimmy Feeman, the entrepreneur who launched No Baked Cookie Dough at the age of 23 and turned it into a successful franchise. Jimmy shares his story of how he and his wife, Megan, started their business, navigated the challenges of franchising, and made key decisions that helped their brand grow. They dive deep into what it takes to franchise your own business and what you need to know before buying a franchise. Tim is an entrepreneur who believes everyone should explore the opportunities that business and real estate can provide on the path to financial freedom. He owns and operates a wine & liquor store, a software startup, a consulting company, and a growing portfolio of commercial and residential real estate. Tim’s passion for independent business has led him to support dozens of other business owners. For over a decade, he has worked with businesses on strategy, processes, finances, and marketing. These experiences, along with analyzing dozens of other businesses for potential acquisition, have provided Tim with an immense knowledge base to pull from. Tim has appeared on multiple top-tier podcasts in the financial space, such as Bigger Pockets Money and The Freedom Chasers Podcast. [00:01 - 11:41] The Origins of No Baked Cookie Dough Jimmy and Megan quit their jobs after 3 months to go full-time into the business. Megan handled marketing while Jimmy focused on operations and product development. They both sought freedom from the 9-to-5 grind, which drove them toward entrepreneurship. Cash flow was key: They knew they could sustain their basic bills before fully jumping in. Side hustles like Uber and DoorDash helped cover gaps while the business grew. [11:42 - 21:56] Pivoting to E-Commerce and CPG Early success led to multiple store openings, but some struggled.. The pandemic pushed them to shift to e-commerce and packaged goods.. CPG came with low margins, high competition, and complex distribution.. Managing relationships with distributors and retailers is crucial.. Selling CPG requires reaching millions, unlike higher-ticket products.. [21:57 - 33:05] Franchising: The Benefits and Challenges Franchising seemed like the easy choice but brought unexpected challenges. Selling to the wrong franchisees can hurt the brand. Success in franchising requires strong systems and training, which take years to build. Franchisees should get a good deal, with operationalized systems and support in place. Systematizing processes helps scale a business, even without franchising.. [33:06 - 40:09] Choosing Between Buying a Franchise or a Mom-and-Pop Business The decision depends on how much work you’re willing to put in. Franchises provide systems and support, but with less flexibility. Mom-and-pop businesses offer more creative control but require more personal effort. Know yourself: Are you an “instruction manual” person or a system builder? Owning a business is about balancing risk, freedom, and structure. [40:10 - 56:43] Closing Segment Aging owners create opportunities to buy businesses with growth potential. Buying to franchise requires solid systems and support. Build a strong foundation with sales data and training before franchising. The real work is in supporting franchisees and maintaining consistency. Franchising offers growth but requires ongoing operational oversight. Guest Bio: Jimmy Feeman is a Forbes 30 Under 30 recipient and an entrepreneur who launched No Baked at just 23 years old and turned it into a nationally recognized dessert brand. He’s run e-commerce, scoop shops, franchised the concept, and even explored the world of consumer packaged goods. Now, as he steps away from day-to-day operations, he’s helping others navigate franchising—from both sides of the deal.

But it's definitely not a quick growth strategy because you'll end up, if they were to go out and ...
