A well-organized acquisition strategy is crucial for anyone who wants to make a risky business decision, such as buying another business. The document serves as an outline for making the deal successful, and will provide you with a clear pathway to take your business from where it is to where it will be after the purchase.

The first paragraph should outline the reasons for the purchase and how it fits within your overall business plan. You should also explain the benefits of acquiring this company and how it will increase your profits. The next section discusses the financial impact of the deal. This includes a breakdown of current sales and EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes Depreciation, Amortisation and Taxes) as well as debt - including personal financial guarantees and hire/lease agreements, forecasts of the company plans, budgets and forecasts.

This section includes a brief overview of the company and its management. This will help you quickly determine whether the company is a fit and can also be helpful in creating your negotiating strategies.

The final section should detail the goals and actions you need to complete to acquire the business. These should be specific and measurable. For instance, you could set a goal of identifying 10 potential acquisitions over the next quarter. This will help you measure your progress and ensure you remain on track to make a successful acquisition.
