Disclaimer: This video contains discussions about hunting and the hunting industry, we understand this may not be suitable for all viewers.

In this episode, I dive into how I acquired a struggling business in the hunting industry and managed to triple its sales within weeks. With decades of entrepreneurial experience, I share why I believed this acquisition was a great opportunity, despite the company’s mismanagement and debt issues.

We discuss:

  • Identifying business potential beyond the numbers.
  • How trust and aligned incentives are key to a successful partnership.
  • The difference between gross margin and net margin and why it matters.
  • Why growth is essential for business survival.
  • I also break down the strategies we used to eliminate barriers to growth and offer insights into my process for structuring deals that create long-term success. If you're interested in learning more, sign up for my newsletter, where I share detailed financials and deeper analysis.

    Listen in to hear the story behind this acquisition, my partnership approach, and lessons learned over years of buying and growing businesses.
