In this podcast episode, the host explores the value of patience in running and growing a business, particularly in the tech sector. The conversation begins with a critique of the "move fast and break things" approach, shifting the focus towards more sustainable, long-term thinking. He emphasizes the importance of patience when negotiating deals, outlining instances where an initially rejected offer becomes viable after other buyers fall through.

The host further shares how their company operates, elaborating on their strategy of acquiring cash-flow positive businesses and reinvesting profits to buy more companies. However, the team is conscious of their limitations, recognizing they can only take on so much, especially with their bootstrap approach. They are focused on growing organically, even if this means periods of inactivity in acquisitions.
