Overheard a guy in the locker room (he was on speakerphone b/c he’s important) talking about his quarterly board meeting, how the power point looks, how the culture is trending, and about 1000 buzz words that sound impressive but mean nothing 🤦♂️ Holy hell do I not miss corporate
Most entrepreneurs want to sell their businesses one day. But 97% aren't prepared. So I built the Seller Interview Question Guide. 50+ questions to answer before selling your business. Usually $29, but FREE for 24 hrs! To get it: -Follow me (for DM) -Retweet -Reply "SEND"
Every single morning routine, relationship hack, time management tool should add (K) or (NK) at the end. Kid. or No Kid (s). Pardon my french, but you can fuck right off if you are a single dude talking about routines or time management in your 20s.
To all 21 of my followers...😂 Looking for a summer intern to help with the search. If you know of anyone interested, point them my way. Posted on searchfunder. searchfunder.com/intern/viewjob…
Have you tried sending direct mail before that got little to no response? (You know the postcards) Cold outreach can be a killer growth strategy when done right. 🧵 about direct mail + email + call. What I call Cupcake Marketing.

Is anyone delivering more value to SMB operators than Permanent Equity? They just released 5 new whitepapers for operators on how to handle challenging situations.
Letters of Intent, or LOIs, are used by 99% of business buyers to make an offer on a business. But most people don’t know how to write a good one. As an M&A lawyer, I’ve written or reviewed many dozens of LOIs. Here are 12 LOI basics you should know.

6 reasons why you won’t ever buy a business 1. Uncommitted 2. Don’t have a Get Shit Done personality 3. Volume way too low 4. Criteria is bad / aimless meandering 5. Low confidence - unwilling to bet on yourself 6. It’s hard
It’s a lot easier to say “happiness matters way more than money”, when there’s 7 figures in the bank account. Take note the next time you hear this. I will bet it’s from one of two people: 1. Person who already created tons of wealth. 2. Person who is poor, has no plan for…
