@guessworkinvest@moseskagan All 3 accurate to varying degrees. A lot reinvested in the business. 2 acquisitions (1 meaningful, 1 small bolt on). And heavy capex - growth is expensive. Healthy profit margin maintained along the way, thankfully.
5 year update:
$1.5 million -> $10 million
10 employees -> 60+
Massive PG still hanging over my head
Endless sleepless nights
Enormous peaks and valleys
Zero regrets
I closed on the acquisition of a small wastewater mgmt biz yesterday. I quit an 11 year career in finance at a large global bank to take on this endeavor, in part at the encouragement of people on Twitter that I’ve never met.
@moseskagan@wolfejosh I also find it annoying that the political class think revenue is exactly = to results. How about just ensure the revenue you have is productive?
