Why 88% of Businesses Don’t Sell — And How You Can Be the Exception
Meet Jonathan Molloy — a dealmaker and acquisition entrepreneur.
We discussed how he's built a portfolio of businesses, scaled one company from £1.8M to £5M+, and now helps business owners grow, restructure, or exit, often through strategic acquisitions.
In this episode of The Different Podcast, host Steven Pettigrew uncovers:
• The real reason most SMEs never sell and how Jonathan fixes that
• What consulting for equity actually looks like
• Why ADHD, strict nutrition, and mindset mastery gave him an edge
• How he evaluates businesses and when he walks away
• What makes a founder actually "investable"
From spinal surgery at 20 to structuring multi-million-pound deals, this is a story of reinvention, strategy, and relentless consistency.
