Kicking off the series with a highly requested discussion on using your business profits to buy another existing business, our founder Ellen Yin debriefs her recent acquisition of Runway Fashion Exchange, a brick and mortar resale store in a college town in Oregon. With details on deal structure, due diligence process, and what returns the store is generating, this is an honest account of what buying a business is actually like — from the first conversation with the seller to now four months in operation as the new owner.
