Acquisition Search

I'm ready to buy my next business.I'm looking to acquire a remote B2B service or digital product business with steady revenue, but opportunities to improve operations and the customer experience, generating $600k - 700k SDE.Any leads appreciated.

My Previous Business

I started 420 Science in 2004 with my best friend, Gary. The great thing about starting a business when you're 24 is that you've got nothing to lose.

  • Bootstrapped on credit cards.

  • $7M revenue / $1.2M profit in our best year.

  • Many years of losing money, breaking even, and small profits.

  • Invaluable experience gained learning about hiring, firing, e-commerce, email marketing, logistics, finance, a million other things, and doing it all with one hand tied behind our back because some plants are illegal.

Or we can grab a coffee. Pretty open. DM or email for a date.
