In this episode of Business Buying Strategies, Jamil shares his journey from a career as a paramedic to owning a $4.5 million revenue business without using his own money.

He explains his decision to leave a lucrative corporate career to pursue business acquisitions, detailing his process of selecting and acquiring a business in the fire safety sector, which is recession-resistant and ripe for innovation.

Jamil describes the negotiations and the structuring of the deal that involved retaining some equity for the sellers. He also discusses the importance of joining Mastermind for guidance and networking, ultimately emphasising the value of investing in self-education for successful business acquisitions.
