An Urgent Message from Dealmakers Founder, Jonathan Jay:

“Attend my £599 course for just £1… if you qualify”

Dear Future Business Buyer,

This letter is urgent – as the event I’m inviting you to takes place on…
Tuesday December 2nd, Wednesday December 3rd and Thursday December 4th

Let me explain:

You know the work I do helping people, like you, buy their first business. And the only reason you are receiving this letter is because you are on our mailing list after requesting information from us – most probably a copy of my Business Buying Strategies book…

I’ve run the new Foundation Course twice recently and the feedback has been stunning – the best I’ve had in nearly 10 years of running courses for business buyers.

It is the perfect introduction to my 12-36 month Mastermind Programme (where I hold your hand through your first deals).

So I asked my team – how do we open this up to more people – people who are not just tyre kickers, but people serious about doing their first acquisition in 2026…

And that’s the reason for this letter…I want to invite you to the upcoming event in December, not for £599+vat, but for £1 only…

I’ll provide the very best training for three days. Be my guest and let me invest in you, before you decide if you want to join Mastermind 2026.

There are three criteria:

  1. You are truly serious about buying a business in 2026…not just dabbling
  2. You know you need help and support and you like my approach to teaching business acquisition
  3. You have the means go ahead with a £10k+ investment in Mastermind (you can split-pay if you need to). There is ZERO obligation to go ahead – but if you want to, then finances shouldn’t stand in your way.
  4. If a partner would be on this journey with you – they should attend too.

These criteria ensure that the room will be full of people with serious intent – which improves the quality of the networking and the experience for everyone.

Would you like to be my guest for just £1?

Register quickly as every place will sell out in hours.

Best Wishes,

Jonathan Jay

“The Turning Point: From Watching Videos and Searching the Internet… To Walking Away With an Actionable Plan, Confidence, and Your First Deal”

Dear Future Dealmaker,

Picture this:

It’s a crisp Winter morning. You’re walking up the long drive to Wokefield Park in Reading, a historic country estate where leaders and decision-makers have gathered for centuries. The leaves crunch underfoot, the air feels sharper than you’re used to, and something in your chest stirs.

You’re not here for another seminar. You’re not here for theory.

You’re here for your turning point.

In just a few minutes, you’ll step into a private room where a small group of people –  people just like you – have gathered. People who have watched the YouTube videos. People who have read the blogs and scoured the internet late at night. People who have been circling this idea for months, maybe years.

And now, they’re ready to stop circling and start doing.

At the front of the room is me. Jonathan Jay.

And I’ve only got one goal for these three days: 

"To give you the safest, fastest, clearest path to buying your first business."

What You’ll Discover At The 3-day Foundation Programme

You see, there’s a moment in every dealmaker’s journey where they stop dabbling… and they start moving.

This is that moment for you. Let me be blunt:

Most people who say they want to buy a business… never do.

They get stuck watching free videos. They collect ideas. They scribble notes. They get lost in contradictions on the internet.

And deep down, they’re scared. Scared of wasting time. Scared of losing money. Scared of making a fool of themselves.

So they wait. They wait until they “feel ready”. They wait until the stars align.
They wait until the right business “just appears.”

But here’s the truth: later is the most expensive word in business.

Every month you wait costs you at least £8,000+ in profit from the business you could already own.

One of my Foundation Course delegates, Sarah, told me:

Think of The Foundation Course  as your insurance policy.

You can pay £1 to learn how to do it right… or risk losing £100,000 tomorrow on one mistake.

That’s not a course fee. That’s a premium for protecting yourself from disaster.

What The Foundation Course Really Is

The Foundation Course is not a lecture. It’s not motivational fluff.

It’s a live, in-person, immersive training where I personally walk you through my
21-Step Business Buying System —
the exact framework I’ve used to buy more than 70 businesses.

You’ll discover:

And we do it together. Step by step. Checklist by checklist. Conversation by conversation.

You don’t leave Foundation with “inspiration.” You leave with an action plan.

The Venue: Why It Matters

We don’t run The Foundation Course in a hotel by an airport.

We run it in a place where breakthroughs happen.

We’re at Wokefield Park, near Reading. A stunning estate where the quiet, the history, and the environment push you to think bigger. You’ll walk the grounds during breaks. You’ll sit in rooms where focus comes naturally. You’ll step away from the noise of daily life… and into clarity.

Why does this matter?

Because where you learn affects how you learn.

And buying a business is too important to be taught in a beige conference room.

Why Listen to Me?

I’ve been where you are.

I sold my first company in 1999. I bought my first acquisition in 2006. I closed my first private equity deal in 2007

Since then, I’ve bought and sold more than 70 businesses across multiple sectors.

I’ve written three books on business acquisition, recorded 330+ podcast episodes, produced 500+ YouTube videos, and built the largest community of dealmakers in the UK.

And I’ve helped people just like you:

When companies hire me privately, they pay £10,000 per day. At The Foundation Course, you get me for £1!
