The "Fresh Dirt" Strategy: How to Buy the Right Business in a Growing Market

Most entrepreneurs look at revenue.
Private equity looks at EBITDA.

But Tyler Brennan looks for something different…

Fresh dirt.

In this episode of the Blue Collar Millionaire Podcast, Tyler breaks down the exact strategy he used to:

Buy an $850K golf course and turn down a $12.5M offer

Scale a drone e-commerce business to $18M

Exit multiple businesses to private equity

Identify growing markets before everyone else

If there's no fresh construction… no new rooftops… no growth in the area…

He's not buying.

You'll learn:
→ Why growing markets matter more than "perfect" businesses
→ How to structure seller-financed deals
→ When to sell to private equity (and when NOT to)
→ Why clean books matter more than high revenue
→ How to buy businesses others are too scared to touch

There are many ways to build wealth.
But the foundation is always the same: discipline, action, and positioning yourself where money is already flowing.

If you're serious about buying a business...this episode is a must-watch.
