What if chasing bigger deals isn’t just about higher paydays—but about shifting risk, leverage, and even your whole business model? Are you engineering premium outcomes, or just hoping the right client comes along?
In this episode, we dig into why focusing on quality over quantity transforms not only your results but also your control over the deal process. The premium route isn’t for the faint of heart: it demands intense preparation, surgical client selection, and a willingness to gamble only when the odds are in your favor. Yet, as automation and AI take over the mechanical side of M&A, brokers and advisors who double down on trust, relationships, and hands-on diligence will set themselves apart.
Our guest, Kevin Berson, President of Kinected Advisors, walks through real-world examples, sharing the lessons (and scars) from high-stakes deals, including the risks of dealing with private equity finders, why running a true market process is non-negotiable, and how building a strong deal team protects your clients’ interests. Jason and Kevin Berson challenge listeners to rethink how they source, prepare, and negotiate deals in an evolving landscape.
