Sourcing to Closing an E-Commerce Acquisition in 9 Days with Bryan Dunn

In this episode of the M&A Launchpad Podcast, hosts Feras Moussa and Casey Minshew welcome special guest Bryan Dunn.  Bryan talks about his journey from helicopter pilot in the military, to working at Boeing and other companies, and now working at a manufacturing company while simultaneously buying his own business.  Bryan currently owns an ecommerce brand, selling a product called the Pursuit Goal Journal.  This product allows people to define and achieve their goals.  After attaining an MBA from Drexel, he stumbles upon ETA (entrepreneurship through acquisition) and decides this is the route he wants to take for his career.  Learn about the transition from big corporate America to the small business landscape. There are many challenges that come with acquiring a business, whether it is an asset-rich manufacturing business, or an ecommerce brand.  Bryan dives into the highs and lows of operating his brand, and what advice he would have for others thinking of doing the same. 

In this podcast episode, we discuss:

• Military Mindset in ETA
• Struggles of an Ecommerce Business
