Finally Bought a Company. Now What?

So, Part 2 last week was the 100th episode. Crazy. A few ways to go BUT we'll definitely be diving more into how to grow this company and then of course, more acquisitions. I have had lots of conversations around raising money from investors on a deal-by-deal basis. Let me know if that sounds interesting to you. Thanks for following along this wonderfully, crazy journey. Episode Resources Connect with Ryan Condie http://linkedin.com/in/ryancondie http://letsbuyabusiness.com/ https://twitter.co...

Measuring Yourself as an Entrepreneur - Spencer Fireside

Spencer and I dive into why it's so hard to measure yourself as an entrepreneur and business owner. Spencer is brilliant (that's why he's my partner, no idea why he's partnering with me) and sheds some great light on how to measure yourself and not 'compete' with someone running a different race. You take outsized risks (not getting a normal job) with the hope of the payout being 10-1000x more than if you get a 9 to 5.
