Now finding investors is something I've considered. While I'm willing to re-invest thousands of my own money back into my business (which I have done, and continue to do), I wonder if an influx of BIG cash would leap frog this puppy (leap frog this puppy?) to the next level.
But trying to grow 'organically' through more hard work, more sweat equity, is not doing it on its' own, ya know? So the point of this thread (I had a point here?) was: is it even worth trying to "go for it" in 2011-2012 or should a program owner just be happy with whatever he can get these days. LOL |
I'm talking about the original owners of Brazzers the guys Fabian bought out. My understanding is this. The original owners re-invested almost 100% back into the company. They kept pumping money back in. And as a result they grew faster than anyone. It makes sense. You think about it year 1 they make $100k and put $100k back in. As long as they break even they are at $200k reality is they were smart guys and grew faster than that. So Year 2 let's say it's 500k then year 3 2mil then going into year 4 you have a company spending $2,000,000 a year on top of their operating costs. As long as you are smart with your investments you can kill it which is exactly what they did.
The key is this. If you have something that is doing well scale that fucker up (as "quiet" used to say) as far as you possibly can. If you've done that then you are probably doing as well as you can do right now. If you haven't then there is where there is huge immediate opportunity for you.
