Listen Later

Join Sam Silverman as he sits down with Ravi Kurani, who took a fascinating journey from pool boy to NASA engineer to successful tech founder. They dive deep into how Ravi is revolutionizing the $14B swimming pool service industry with a fresh approach to acquisitions and technology.

In this episode, Ravi shares his unique story of founding robotics company Sutro, selling it to Sani Marc, and now launching Poolify to roll up local pool service routes with a tech-forward approach. Discover why this fragmented industry is ripe for disruption and how Ravi's experience in poverty alleviation work in India shaped his business philosophy.

In this value-packed conversation, Sam and Ravi cover:

  • How 85% of pool owners don't use service companies, creating massive untapped market potential
  • The economics of pool service routes and what makes them attractive acquisition targets
  • Strategic approaches to preserving local branding while building scalable systems
  • Creative deal structures that create win-wins for retiring pool service owners
  • Why adding smart water chemistry monitoring technology creates a competitive edge
  • Ravi's counterintuitive advice on when founders should consider selling their businesses
