Most people who want to own a business think they have to build one. Buy Then Build lays out the other path. Buy a company that already has customers, staff, and cash flow, then grow it from there.
Chapter one is where that argument starts. The rest of the book is the playbook for doing it.
Starting from zero means years with no revenue, no team, and no proof the idea works. Buying skips to the part where the business already runs.
An existing business pays its own way. Payroll, rent, and the loan that bought it come out of money the company already makes.
Every improvement you make lands on top of a base that is already there. That is a different bet than hoping a new idea takes off.
