Buying a Business with Elizabeth MacRae, Co-Founder of Village Wellth.

Have you ever thought of buying a business? In this episode The Finance Cafe co-founder and podcast host, Shannon Pestun, explores another avenue to entrepreneurship.  According to her guest, Elizabeth MacRae, buying a business is an excellent career path option for people in the small business space and an investment path that can be a real avenue to financial freedom.  MacRae shares how with the baby boomer generation retiring from business ownership in droves there is ample opportunity for underrepresented groups and individuals to acquire these small businesses. Listen in as these two brilliant minds dive into all the things you need to know. Elizabeth is a Certified Exit Planning Advisor & the Co-Founder of the tech start-up: Village Wellth; a digital acquisition platform built to accelerate the process for buyers of small businesses. After missing the opportunity to take over her father’s company due to a lack of succession planning Elizabeth and her husband Scott ventured into business ownership through purchasing a franchise. The experience of starting a new franchise and coming full circle to sell it led her into the business succession space; training as a business broker and later, exit planning advisor. Over the last 10 years Elizabeth has acquired and exited 2 companies and lives to tell the tales. Elizabeth is an active speaker and is passionate about sharing the advantages and process of business acquisition with aspiring entrepreneurs and founders alike.
