Departments can find themselves merged, and customer bases can be shared. This is part of the main reason for acquisitions in the first place, not so much to acquire a second business but to allow synergy between two companies. With many from the Baby Boomer generation about to retire, opportunities are abundant for those looking to acquire businesses, as many of these companies do not have succession plans. If you’re talented at 'turnaround', then you can make way more profit from acquiring a company and reinvigorating it than beginning from scratch. Just because a business owner has lost interest, or the company is running low on momentum, doesn’t mean that it’s a bad business. It just requires a new psychology and toolkit. Distressed businesses can still prove valuable, even though the acquisition of them costs next to nothing. By simply acquiring a company similar to your own, you instantly acquire and access a second customer base. Asset finance and deferred payments to the seller can allow you the opportunity to buy a business without putting up any of your own money.
