In this insightful episode of "It's the Bottom Line That Matters," host Jennifer Glass leads a candid roundtable with Patricia Reszetylo and Daniel McCraine to explore the nuanced world of mini-acquisitions—small, strategic purchases or takeovers that can have a big impact on business growth. Unlike headline-grabbing corporate mergers, mini-acquisitions involve more modest deals like acquiring a niche e-commerce site, licensing a software platform, or taking over an online community such as a Facebook or LinkedIn group. The conversation is filled with practical examples and personal stories, illustrating the decisions, risks, and growth potential that come with making these smaller moves.

Listeners will find plenty of actionable advice woven throughout the discussion. Daniel McCraine shares how he identified gaps in his own business and thoughtfully filled them through targeted acquisitions, while Patricia Reszetylo discusses her experiences with both successful and missed opportunities—including her lessons learned from considering restaurant and property investments. Jennifer Glass introduces the buy-partner-build framework, offering a straightforward decision-making model for finding or creating strategic opportunities. The episode emphasizes the importance of fit: ensuring the new acquisition complements existing operations and skills, rather than becoming an ill-fitting jigsaw puzzle piece. Whether you’re considering taking over digital assets, physical properties, or adding a new service to your lineup, this episode provides a wealth of insights and expert tips to help you approach mini-acquisitions with confidence and clarity.
