If you’ve been following my blog over the first quarter, you’ll probably remember that they’ve all centered on themes related to getting stuff done. And concurrent with getting stuff done, I believe, is the need to periodically assess your progress and celebrate your wins. After all, don’t we all like to win? Isn’t work (and life) much more fulfilling and enjoyable when you can step back and see where & how you’re winning?
The Great Game of Business, a book I’m currently reading, makes a huge deal about this philosophy of running a business; I read at least 3 books last year whose authors believed the same. And I buy it!
So here are some of our wins for Q1 2018:
Our primary criteria continue to be:
- Companies located in greater Southeast Wisconsin (~1 hr drive from Milwaukee), that are...
- Manufacturers producing a product line, engineered product, and/or utilizing a specialized capability, generating...
- Sales in the range of $2 - $15mm and EBITDA margins above 10% (with a particular interest in companies ranging from $3mm - $8mm in sales).
Please keep us top of mind with owners of businesses like these. Our goal is to acquire two this year; we'd love for you to be a partner in our success!
Moving forward,
