The other day the Wall Street Journal wrote about how, “Small Investors Look to Small-Town Homes.” One investor said he targets C-level homes in decent neighborhoods.

I’ve always encouraged business buyers to “Think small not big” if they believe they can grow the company, either organically or by acquisition. But, and it’s a big but, don’t buy a C-level business because you can’t upgrade it easily as a home can be with a coat of paint, new flooring, etc. A C-level business takes a lot of time, energy, and money, and may not work out successfully.

On the flip side, business owners need to do all they can to make their business A-level. Because C-level companies get heavily discounted by buyers.
