In episode 227, Acquisition's Anonymous features John Wilson (@WilsonCompanies) for another episode. He joins Heather (@EndresenHeather) and Michael (@girdley) in discussing the potential acquisition of an HVAC and plumbing company in Northwestern Ohio. They analyzed the listing, priced at $980,000 with a cash flow of $235,351 and gross revenue of $1,217,347. They point out that the business seems stagnant, operating in a region with limited growth opportunities, and stress the importance of understanding customer acquisition costs. John and Heather caution against overpaying and highlight the significance of having a clear strategy for growth before acquiring a home service company.
