Nano Thought

Thinking about check sizes and capital raising recently, and wanted to share some thoughts with you all about this.

Raising capital...can be about raising $50k, it doesn't mean you have to raise millions! Many angel investors are writing $5k checks, and if you learn how to structure a capital stack correctly. You can come at a deal that is selling for $100k, and bring only $10k of your own money in.

Maybe you take 3 investors at $10k each, and you have your own $10k. Now youre at $40k

I have a revolving line of credit right now at .5% a month interest. Thats 6% a year, that I can use for whatever I like, Im QUITE sure many of you could have the same

Lets say you take $30k from that, now we are at $70k.

Maybe you ask the seller to finance 20% of it for you, this keeps them aligned with the handoff and making sure the business can grow.

Now youre at $90k

And maybe you offer to let them keep 10% of the company, so that they can participate in the massive upside when you eventually exit the business or dividend out some profits.

Now you've come up with all $100k!

Here is a recent infographic from Carta that shows how small checks often can fill out early rounds, you also end up with tons of evangelists for your business that can introduce you to future investors as well!

Other Businesses This Week

Here is a little breakdown of some of the listings we see on the marketplaces and brokers in the media space. This includes newsletters, content sites, and more.

Some require a little love and TLC from the right buyer to run them, and some are just cranking away out of the box :)

Content Sites

​1 year and 9 months old technology website - making $717 per month via Adsense in the last 12 months - traffic down from google updates, but seems to be recovering and could be purchased at 30x net profit ($5k) on new lower rev. Also switch the ad network to Ezoic for an easy win

​

As always...do your own due diligence, the above is based off of what we see as an opportunity from the info provided in the listing and some light due diligence, not a deep dive. It just one of many scenarios that could play out and its up to you to do your own due diligence and see if this makes sense for you!
