A short YouTube monologue (Mark Evans DM, Nov 19, 2023) in which the speaker recounts running and then outsourcing a house-rehab business. He states he and his team rehabs 700 houses before outsourcing, describes missed opportunities (not selling companies, passing on offers), and reflects on business mindset, timing, and deal-making anecdotes.
I did 700 houses of rehabs myself with my team before we actually outsourced to other companies. So then we started outsourcing, but I was so afraid to let it go. Looking back, I should have sold those companies because I was getting offers all the time with gutters. I didn't want to let go of that bread truck. That's how I picked up chicks. We were doing all these things and it's like looking back, I could have bought some real companies for pennies on the dollar. I was so in the game of business. Conversations like, you catch a guy on the right side. It's all timing, dude. I'm done sitting at Bob Evans in the corner. He's stressed out. He's got a 32 million dollar year business. He's done. If you tap him. No, I'll take over your debt. I'm in. Boom. You the game over.
