Grab a cup of coffee. This is the Weekend Edition. *** Well hello! Two things to tickle your brain today: 1) Simon Sinek's free bagels 2) My latest business acquisition Free bagel or nah?Simon Sinek (the Start with Why guy) and his buddy are walking in Central Park and a well-known runner's organization is offering free bagels to passers-by. They do this every month. Simon says, "Let's get a bagel!" And his friend says, "Nah, the line is too long." "But it's a free bagel," says Simon. "Too long," says his friend. And right there it clicks for Simon: you can be the kind of person who sees the opportunity or the kind of person who sees the obstacle. Which are you? 📈 Behind the Business: A New Acquisition in the PortfolioMeet Austin Walker. Austin worked for a client of mine. During a meeting last year, he shared a dream with me: to build a company that focuses on preparing youth with essential life skills. Austin didn't just talk about this dream. He showed me a workbook he's been creating over the past 5 years. It's meticulously designed and covers 150+ topics from etiquette to taxes to health and social skills. It's an awesome companion for middle and highschoolers. He was also super honest and vulnerable about what he needed to take this thing off the ground––and I happened to have many of those skills. So I bought in as 20% owner. The deal aligns with my mission of creating a portfolio of companies that have a positive social impact and I get to work with such a genuine and cool person. Here are the green flags that sold me:
In the last 24 hours, we've had 3 sales! I could get used to these notifications...
Here's the strategy for the coming months:
It's Austin's baby but I'm a proud Advisor. If you want to check out the workbook, use the code DI50 for 50% off. Good for one week. And if you have an idea, talk to people about it. You never know who can help. -- Have a great week!
