The Moneyball approach (Interview)

I probably need to come on in a year or two years and then we'll have a better... Yeah, six months, we'll have a better idea. But that's kind of the process for us.

So like, I'll be, you know, part time on it, Chris will be part time on it, Garrett will be part time on it, as it grows, which I believe it will any any good software, you keep improving, you keep listening to customers, you keep solving their problems, you keep telling them about what you're doing, that grows, I've just never been on a team that does that, that the software doesn't grow.

And so assuming that's the case, we'll just go more and more full time on it. And at some point, it will be the only thing and then we'll probably bring on you know, more apps. We'll try and find more to actually go out and do the same thing with. I think that's kind of... Does that kind of answer the question? It's like, it's very much like a lifestyle chill.

Like, I have a Google Doc that I made at the beginning and I was like, this is what I want to do. I showed it to every person that was going to be involved. I'm like, are you... This is what I want to do. Do you have any changes? Are you cool with this overall? You know, and the number one thing is calm. I'm like, I want calm. I love calm. Like box out is calm. It does very well.

freaking out that that's totally a possible thing so I'm like I just want to apply the same thing over here just because of structure wise it just it just made more sense than trying to like roll a whole bunch of things in something over there on the other side so mm-hmm

Yeah. So, I mean, I mean, price wise, the multiple on profit was less than that. It was probably more like two and a quarter or less than that. And again, it's because like this is a massive credit to Dan. I want to give him props because he could have, you know, like. just waited and just collected checks.

He could have tried to get a higher multiple for somebody that's going to harvest the customers. He could have tried a lot of different things. And he was like, I want the customers to be taken care of. A lot of these people are my friends. A lot of these people I've served for a long time. And he's like, I don't want it to just go away.

And so that I think was a big benefit to Garrett and I and the others is that we could come in and say, look, this is what we're going to do. We're actually going to try to grow it. We're going to make it better. We're going to take whatever, your baby, and we're going to hopefully, you know, help it continue to grow instead of just to sit and slowly kind of decline.

So, you know, multiple wise, he gave us a much better multiple than perhaps like, I mean, if any private equity company or somebody else came in, they would definitely have given probably a better multiple. He had better offer that he turned down before us. So I think it was truly like, he's like, these are the right people to run it. So I don't have a great example of like,
