Don’t fall for the lies

  • Buying a business means betting the house.
  • Only the really rich can afford a business.
  • Being an employee is safer than owning.
  • Start-ups are sexier than boring businesses. 

When the truth is

  • Owners buy income streams not jobs. 
  • Owners buy profits not projections.
  • Owners know terms are king.
  • Owners get the deal done with less upfront $$.

The $10 Trillion Ownership Opportunity

Ten trillion dollars worth of profitable small businesses are about to change hands for the first time in history.

Unlike risky start-ups that can take years to reach profitability… over 75% of these unsexy businesses are already profitable.

Which means, when you buy one, you’re profitable starting on day one.

It’s the biggest opportunity in our lifetime for ordinary people like us to become owners and take control of our futures.

But you’re running out of time…

If you don’t act fast, the big guys will end up owning everything and you’ll be left with scraps.

Don’t worry, I’ve got you…

Hi, I’m Codie Sanchez

and while working for some of the biggest names on Wall Street, I quietly bought my first cash flowing business on the side.

Since then, I’ve successfully negotiated and purchased over 23 different Main Street businesses and left Wall Street behind.

Now I’m sharing my 10,000 hours spent mastering finance, dealmaking, mergers and acquisitions with you. Because I believe business buying is for everyone, not just the really rich.

My comprehensive business buying course, Main Street Accelerator, gives you a clear path and the exact steps to follow to successfully acquire your first, second, or tenth business.

It’s not easy, but I promise you, it is simple.

In this course, I reveal the closely guarded acquisition secrets of the world’s top private equity firms.

I show you the best way to buy a business and grab your share of this $10 trillion dollar opportunity.

But don’t take my word for it…
