Scale Through Acquisitions | Save the Date: Feb 8-10 - DealCon M&A Summit Miami

Hi ,

Let’s face it, if your goal is to grow by 5-10% over the next five years, you increase your company’s value by 50%. 

Factoring inflation, it’s kinda like gutting it out just to be almost in the same place. 

This realization is why I have spent years perfecting the art of scaling through acquisitions and developing a community of entrepreneurs who have aspirations to create legacy by doing the same.

Here is what they don’t tell you, it doesn’t matter if you have extra cash or bandwidth, acquisitions can solve almost any business challenge if done responsibly. 

If you're ready to scale your business through acquisitions or planning for your exit, with more certainty, less risk, and the right playbook, I want to personally invite you to DealCon M&A Summit, happening February 9–11, 2026, in Miami, Florida.

DealCon is a private, working summit for seven to nine figure entrepreneurs who want to accelerate growth, increase enterprise value, and prepare for strategic exits. You’ll also meet sellers looking for the right partners, not just the highest bidders.

I built DealCon with Tom Shipley (25+ deals, $2bn+ in revenue) to give entrepreneurs access to the same frameworks, teams, and capital networks we use. Between us, we’ve led dozens of acquisitions and exits across multiple industries, from consumer brands to healthcare to tech.

At DealCon, we go beyond theory, we open our playbooks and walk through real deals.

Here’s what you’ll master:

• Build Consistent Deal Flow: Learn to source high-quality opportunities using brokers, proprietary outreach, inbound systems, and AI.
  

• Structure Creative Deals: Close with less capital upfront through earn-outs, seller financing, and equity rollovers.
  

• Fund the Acquisition: Gain access to SBA, private credit, and equity partners ready to support your next move.
  

• Integrate Post-Close: Follow the 90-day playbook to retain talent, optimize systems, and drive profitability.
  

• Use AI to Accelerate Growth: Apply automation to sourcing, diligence, and integration to save you weeks of work.
  

• Align Every Deal to Your Exit Strategy: Build with purpose, not randomness…every acquisition should move you closer to the big outcome.

You’ll be surrounded by:

• Founders actively buying or selling companies

• Strategic acquirers and roll-up operators

• Private equity-backed CEOs

• Family offices, investors, and lenders

• M&A attorneys, brokers, and dealmakers

• AI-powered operators optimizing their deal execution

Past speakers include Robert Glazer, Perry Belcher, Erik Huberman, Jay Abrahams, Jose Lozano, and Stephanie Kaplan Lewis…entrepreneurs who build and transact, not just talk.

If you’re done with incremental growth and ready to play the acquisition game at the highest level, this is your event.

125 seats. One room. Real deals.

Whether you have done 10 acquisitions or none, if you have a business and a passion to scale with a real, replicable scaling strategy, this is the room for you.
