Seeing the Gap

Seeing The Gap is the Official Business Doctor podcast for people evaluating, buying, financing, and operating small businesses. Episodes focus on the decisions hidden behind a listing, a lender request, an earnings adjustment, or an operating problem. The purpose is to make the evidence easier to inspect before enthusiasm becomes commitment.

Dr. Matty Herrera hosts the series from the perspective of a buyer and operator. The show covers finding acquisition targets, reading seller materials, normalizing SDE and EBITDA, testing valuation assumptions, preparing for due diligence, comparing financing structures, taking over an existing team, improving operations, and preparing a company to sell.

Published episode pages include the recording, show notes, source citations when the subject depends on outside authority, and a transcript. Related guides and calculators connect the discussion to the permanent reference material on this site. Draft recordings, review notes, and unpublished episodes remain private.

The podcast teaches how to frame and investigate a decision. It does not replace legal, tax, accounting, lending, or investment advice, and it does not promise that a listener will buy, grow, finance, or sell a business.
