While you can self-fund your website purchases and online acquisitions, that’s not the ONLY way to close deals.
In this week’s episode, Justin and Ace look at several different strategies you can use to leverage investors to purchase websites and online businesses.
We dig into where to find investors, how to approach them with your plan, and look at how to both pitch them and provide them a return on their investment.
Using leverage can be risky, but might allow you to reach up and get deals that would otherwise be out of reach.

Hey Guys,
Love the show, I’m hooked. 2 questions for a future show hopefully:
1) What are the different ways you can set up the deal for investors? Do they always take equity and hang onto it indefinitely or can you structure it as a lucrative loan such that you can assume full control of the business down the road? What are some of the common structures of those deals?
2) At your suggestion and the suggestion of others in the industry, I’ve been forming a punch list of items I look for in a business. I was wondering if you have suggestions for how to develop this list. A couple of the items rule out most deals already so I don’t know how far to go down this path.
Thanks for this! It really is great to have these as point of reference when you are starting over something as a project. It would also be great if you could feature on ways how to persuade people for them to invest in you. This would be something I would definitely love to listen to.
