🔥 8 Steps to a $100M Business Exit 🔥

Want to learn how entrepreneurs sell their companies for hundreds of millions? 

In this video, I break down the 8-step blueprint that I’ve learned from M&A masterminds, business owners who’ve exited for 9 figures, and my own journey scaling brands. If you want to build, scale, and sell a business for life-changing wealth, this is your roadmap!

Here’s what you’ll learn in this video:
✅ Why thinking about your exit before you start growing changes everything
✅ How to identify businesses worth acquiring—and avoid buying a “job”
✅ The mindset shift from working in your business to working on your business
✅ Why recurring revenue and subscription models are the holy grail for buyers
✅ How to use M&A to shortcut growth instead of starting from scratch every time

What do you do when your first business acquisition doesn't live up to expectations? In this strategy session, we pull back the curtain on our supplement brand, Dr. Barry's, and reveal why we're making a major pivot. Instead of trying to fix a struggling product, we're building a system to acquire a new, successful brand with built-in momentum.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• A candid look at our first acquisition: why profits are up even as revenue struggles.
• The big pivot: Why we're shifting from fixing a brand to buying a new one.
• Building an engine for acquisitions: Our strategy for finding on-market and off-market deals.
• The "Shark Tank" Effect: Navigating sellers' unrealistic valuation expectations.
• Key takeaways on momentum, creative deal structuring, and what really drives a successful business.

In this eye-opening episode, we reveal why our revenue is down 25% but our profit is up 60% - and the tough decisions we're making as a result.

• Our Amazon reviews dropped to 3.7 stars (displaying as 3.5 stars), crushing our conversion rate
• Declining subscription numbers tell us the brutal truth: our "winning" product isn't winning anymore
• How cutting our ad spend in half led to significantly higher profits ($4,500 vs $2,800 last month)
• The pivot strategy: launching our liver support supplement while shifting Reflux Essentials to Shopify where our reviews are stronger

Sometimes the path to growth means acknowledging what's not working. Listen in as we share the real numbers and our plan to turn things around with our new "perpetual sales machine" strategy.

In this episode of the "We Bought a Brand" podcast the guys discuss their journey with Dr. Barry's, their acquired supplement brand. The team explores:

• February revenue update: $23,000 on Amazon and $2,500 on Shopify with profits around $2,000
• Their growth strategy of reinvesting all profits back into the business rather than taking cash out
• Challenges with their main product, Reflux Essentials, including customer education and expectations
• Discussion about potentially adding a third product to their lineup (possibly Total Liver)
• Travis's experimental approach to Google and Facebook ad spending
• The team's manufacturing concerns, including looking for suppliers with lower minimum order quantities (MOQs)
• A hypothetical exercise: what they would do if they needed to grow the brand to $1 million in revenue
• Their different approaches: Travis focusing on Amazon optimization and new product launches, while Deacon would leverage his Shopify and influencer marketing strengths
• The estimated cost ($40,000-$50,000) and opportunity costs of scaling versus waiting for their next acquisition

The episode highlights the team's complementary skills, their strategic approach to growth, and how they balance current operations with future acquisition plans.
