Usually companies that have a fantastic, growing business model don’t sell to PE.

I also don’t like it when a money-losing business stops giving me below-market pricing.


- Phone subscriptions is a price competitive market in most places, not some growth-hacking industry.

- Not every business has a growth story. Not every business needs a growth story.

PE can offer a business owner more than they expect it to make by:

- being ignorant about the business (Which we are seeing repeatedly)

- intend to run it hot to juice the numbers and resell it for their profit.
