Are you interested in what people in the SMB community are experiencing in their businesses and the economy right now? I interviewed over 40 people, collected and summarized their best takes, and wrote-up the results along with an analysis of the key themes.
A chronically overwhelmed leader to me is a sign of one thing: They suck at delegating. Usually, it’s because they don’t have a good team around them. Though often it’s a lack of courage to get stuff off their plate. It’s scary.
I bought an SMB in 2020 with 100% debt as a side project. In the last three years, we’ve seen our valuation balloon ~700%. This isn’t a story about the risk of self-funded search. But it is an SMB story about the potential for massive upside if you buy the right small business.…
Business buyers need to move slowly and be deliberate. You need to set your terms and stick to them. Don't be pressured by the seller or broker. Stop forgoing seller notes, giving non-refundable deposits, overlooking major diligence concerns, etc. Have the backbone to walk.

Are you curious what the PnL for a specific industry looks like? Did you know you can find one (for free) for just about any service based business? And the operational playbook as well. 🧵
Unconventional advice for aspiring entrepreneurs: (1/x)
Track your income and expenses—bookkeeping is an integral part of tax planning.
It's not just about having a structure that works but having a structure that works for YOU.
I bought a sample of some pricey small buisness laundry detergent and my clothes smell soooooo mf good 😂🥴
For business buyers / searchers - it's crucially important to show that you are truly excited about the opportunity to run the business... it's such a human interaction and owners want to feel that connection and respect for what they've built
LOL. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery I suppose. 😅😑 If you come for the king, you best not miss... imposter.

Had a blast with @AcquiringMinds_ talking about my transition from tech to owning and operating dog daycares. If you're thinking of making the plunge from tech/finance/corporate, give it a listen. Maybe my experience can convince to make the jump.

As a marketplace that connects small businesses to potential buyers, @baton_market found that traditional CRMs wouldn't work for them. They needed a CRM with powerful automation that could also adapt to their data structure. Read why they chose Attio → attio.xyz/baton
