Buy this falling knife!
Guest host @connorgroce brought in a doozy.
3 skin care franchises with razor-thin margins...
...unloading right before the upside should be coming.
Connor, @thegeneralmills, and @endresenheather dig into the red flags.

A dog grooming business with 35% margins...
We think this is about $1M overpriced.
Can you spot the problem?
@thegeneralmills, @endresenheather, and @ConnorGroce dug in on today's episode.

@gordoluis2409 @BillDA @thegeneralmills @EndresenHeather 420 + driving enormous dump trucks around giant piles of burning junk = dangerous combination

Can you spot the biggest risk with this deal?
(Aside from the open flames and undisclosed EBITDA...)
What a picture to sell your business with.
@BillDA, @thegeneralmills, and @endresenheather dug into this 30-year excavation business with 9 dump trucks, 4 dozers, and more than a few dangerous question marks. Link in bio.

Sometimes people ask me if they should buy an ecommerce business
If you don’t know what these words mean - you probably shouldn’t
Cody Plofker@codyplof
We just dropped iCPA on Meta 26% by doing the following: - Moved spend aggressively from VO to CO - Increased partnership spend - Added a campaign with view optimization - Scaled AEB investment - Improved reels delivery - Patched some exclusion leaks All just to improve CPMr. It’s wild how much you have to do just to have a chance of success these days. I’d like to see Manus try.

@girdley @thegeneralmills @EndresenHeather On the upside, special guest @Travis_Jamison estimates the due diligence on this business is about 4 minutes.

You could almost certainly build this app over a weekend.
So the half-million bucks is for... a single YouTube video?
How much is a single video worth? (Serious question.)
@girdley, @thegeneralmills, and @endresenheather dig in on today's episode. (Link in bio.)

A dangerous moment in hiring, partnerships, acquisitions:
Deal fever.
When you want it so badly, you stop thinking rationally and just look at "what if".
I've seen it turn a lot of smart people dumb.

This business is 8 years old but does only $600K/year in profit.
If the concept works, shouldn't it be bigger?
@girdley, @thegeneralmills, @endresenheather, and Travis dig into a forklift simulator.

Why does a $36M countertop business only have $50K in inventory?
@thegeneralmills and @endresenheather dig into a Florida fabricator asking 7.5x.
Downsides? Zero growth levers and brutal exposure to cyclical new construction.

Love our pod, but wish we didn't discuss a deal every time?
(Which is, like, our whole thing?)
Have we got the event for you:
Michael Girdley@girdley
Your skills + a few key decisions determine whether your business will be easy or hard. Join me and @connorgroce today at lunch. Lots of time for your questions. Let's get into it together. RSVP here (and if you miss it, I'll send the recording). luma.com/nbbeh3fd

@diligentsAI Interesting math you're doing there on that EBITDA number they definitely disclosed
English
@acquanon Great analysis! Another red flag: the EBITDA multiple on asking price vs. real replacement cost. When you pay premium for "cash flow" but the asset depreciates faster than returns = destroy capital. This is where proper due diligence separates serious buyers from hobbyists.
English
Can you spot why this deal is a trap?
(Our take below.)
