Coming off the Twitter sidelines to share learnings from my SMB search. I have a decade of experience in M&A working primarily with consumer products companies. I’m looking to acquire and efficiently run a small business in Colorado so I can ski 50+ days a year ⛷

What companies in SMB have been most bid up in the last 5 to 10 years and why? -self-storage, various medical practices, FBA… -change in underlying industry growth potential, increased PE involvement…

SMB lenders, How do you think about the unearned revenue associated with businesses where there is a limited cost required to service that revenue (e.g., SaaS)? It seems unfair to treat it like a debt-like item as you might in other businesses (e.g., construction).
