Meet Jon: Your Coach

Hey, I’m Jon Stoddard. If you’re here, chances are you’ve thought about buying a business but don’t know where to start—or maybe you’ve tried but felt overwhelmed by the process. I get it. I’ve been there.

When I bought my first business, I thought I had it all figured out. Then reality hit. I made mistakes—big ones. That first business? I had to shut it down because Yahoo changed their ad policies, and my revenue vanished overnight. It felt like a punch to the gut.

But I didn’t give up. Instead, I learned everything I could about buying businesses the right way. I went on to buy, grow, and sell a hearing aid e-commerce company, turning it into a win. I still hold equity in another business I bought. Along the way, I’ve raised over $50 million for startups and public companies and even helped uplist an OTC company to NASDAQ.

Through those experiences—and interviewing over 150 serial acquirers, M&A service providers, and investment bankers on my podcast, Top M&A Entrepreneurs—I’ve learned what works, what doesn’t, and the common traps that catch first-time buyers off guard. More importantly, I’ve learned how to avoid them.

Here’s the deal: I believe buying established businesses is one of the smartest ways to build wealth. Why? Because someone else has already done the hard part—creating a product, finding customers, and making money. Your job is to step in, optimize, and grow.

But let’s be real. Buying a business isn’t easy—unless you know exactly what to look for and how to execute. That’s where I come in. I’ve developed a system—the DealFlowSystem—to help people like you fast-track your first acquisition without the trial-and-error I went through.

I’ll teach you how to find hidden gems, spot profitable deals, and use other people’s money to finance your purchase. It’s not theory—it’s what I’ve done myself and what I’ve helped others do, too.

On a personal note, I’m a Prostate Cancer survivor, a proud dad of teenage twins, and a dog lover. My time in the Air Force taught me discipline and resilience (and gave me the thrill of riding in the back seat of an F4 Phantom Fighter). These life experiences shaped who I am today—and they fuel my commitment to helping people like you succeed.

I’ve been where you are. I know the doubts, the questions, and the fear of making a mistake. But I also know the incredible opportunity waiting on the other side. Let me help you get there.
