The pattern is kind of wild here. These founders build these spectacular businesses doing hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue / becoming globally recognized businesses, so I kind of have to assume they know the benchmarks laid out in these earn outs are pie in the sky numbers that the big strategic knows they won’t hit. The part of that I have trouble with is that - these strategics aren’t buying these businesses to lose money! They want and need them to win! Kind of interesting that Stephen and Allison at Poppi also announced their encore business Jetty this week, which I’m sure we will find out is a super hot funding round. They are winners, so very interested in the new biz (and what they think about all of this!!)

Private valuations are not public valuations. Public market deals will eventually regress to the fundamentals!

This is unfortunately a crime if it’s true. I don’t think there was malice intended and it may not have been purposeful, but this is fraud. People have gone to jail. She should return investors money, and send back any money she may have spent. All $43.5m. Close the business and try to stay out of what will be a crappy legal battle. Even if she wins, everyone loses.

This is one of the painful truths of being a founder. Investors want the money in the business not in your pocket (basically until you’re in 🦄 territory). Also this can be situational! These aren’t strict rules

LETS GO KNICKS! Not included above, but our king (my doctor) Jalen Brunson took a pay cut for this roster to stay together AND for the team to be able to afford Karl Anthony Towns’s contract. He will now be eligible for a max contract valued near $400m. He deserves every penny.

Kevin Durant isn’t just the greatest scorer of all-time, he might be one of the greatest athlete investors of all-time. This investment will blow your mind. Our guy @marshallsandman breaks it down, and keeps you updated on what you could learn from this. KD is about to make more from this than he will on the court this season. Insane. @easymoneysniper @richkleinman @boardroom

There’s a huge lesson here in basic business practices. Honesty shouldn’t be extra, it should be common place. As it weird as it is to say this really is a SHIFT in accountability for early stage VC

Bonus video because I actually can’t believe this. We have lost the plot. My mom loves her oura ring and I love my whoop, but just because the product is reasonably good doesn’t mean the public market will value it. They won’t. If they could, they would sell to a private equity firm and LBO, take cash out and put executives on an earn out but they can’t.

This isn’t the most down the fairway topic for me but it’s completely fascinating. The allocation of scarce resources, the relationships between these mega companies and bitcoin miners, the insane trend in venture capital to finance power companies of all shapes and sizes. Understanding basic unit economics is the fundamental building block of my job so just wanted to pass it along!

I just feel like I’m saying the quiet part out loud. I want everyone to win, I want everyone to make money pursuing their passions - but how do some of the smartest investors in the world get behind a 7.7x revenue multiple for a bar that tastes bad and a couple of other soft product launches that haven’t gone anywhere. You have to underwrite this business to being its own Mondelez or Hersheys (that IS what’s happening) but I just don’t see it. $250m is an amazing amount of money but it actually isn’t enough when you consider how big of a check is going to end up in a marketing budget right off the top.

If you’re a founder watching this, you probably need to figure out how you’re going to go to market thoughtfully and more importantly - in a cost effective manner! These are just the three biggest 🚩 not the only ones…

Venture capital has been able to break down every major industry on earth except this one. Will they ever be able to break the certification life cycle? Pull out the entrenched players? Even compete with them? I would think so, but many have tried and all have failed to date. The person or people that figure this out will have one of the only trillion dollar opportunities left on earth!

Same as every other trend. Get to the basics - topline, gross profit margin, marketing spend, overhead and profitability. Don’t get caught up in the hype! I do think there will be some defensible businesses that come out of this cycle (same as most)!

This isn’t even a hot take. DWTS has become the hottest ticket to push celebrities over the cusp into the promised land - name brand recognition. Reality tv has become so crowded and this older property seems to just be growing its legs at the right time.

Meta just told me that my five minute video won’t be recommended to new followers. So SHARE THIS VIDEO PLEASE!!! Sorry for the amount of thigh here. There is a whole other series of videos to be done about the restructuring of department stores.

I know I’m being dramatic. You should NOT stay pre-revenue as long as possible, but the fundamental truth does underly this very wild venture capital lesson. We are investors in a handful of businesses that we expected NOT to have revenue for YEARS and some successfully raised awesome rounds… some didn’t. The second that revenue is turned on this is what people will do - compare your multiple to others. This is an egg you can’t unscramble!

Your early investors are never going to stop eating to influence you or your business. Pro rata rights aren’t free, they aren’t a gimme but investors will act like they are. Be wary!!

This is a WILD over simplification of the topic. But convertibles are cheap and have complications, equity is expensive and clean. The earlier you are in the journey the more flexible your investors will be for investing on a convertible note. One MAJOR exception is if you’re crushing it and much larger - investors may let you do a convertible note to capture some upside there…

Like any other time or financial commitment - do your research, talk to people who have done it and others who haven’t. Really make sure it’s right for you. The market view of each accelerator is really different and it’s absolutely not always a good thing. And that early “momentum” may lead to valuation inflation that creates really crappy down rounds in the future. It’s not one size fits all and it’s not as good or bad as the folks at these accelerators will make it sound.
