Should you buy a business right now — or wait it out?
In this episode of American Operator, JC and Mainshares Founder, William Fry get honest about what it takes to operate during uncertain times. From interest rate pressure to market chaos, this one’s for every scrappy buyer, solo founder, or operator trying to make smart moves without burning out.
He breaks down:
- The myth of “perfect timing”
- Why some owners are quietly winning big
- How $150K turned into a $3.6M business
- What operators really need to focus on when things get weird
Whether you're buying your first business or scaling your fifth, this episode pulls no punches.
🎙️ Because Operators don’t wait for certainty — they build anyway.
