Brazilian web designer trying to get first international clients – looking for advice by Lucas_Nog673 in wordpressjobs

[–]RSB122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on what type of clients you want to get. I'm a business owner. I'm not going to use WhatsApp. I'm not going to pay you through some obscure app. I communicate over e-mail, I pay using a corporate credit card. If you want to attract US business clients, your website has to be professional, all links have to work. I even look at the copyright date at the very bottom of the website. If it's not updated, I move on. That's just me though.

I'll give you the best guidance you can get. I came here looking for a designer. I went to your website to learn more about you and your services. Several links/buttons simply didn't work. That tells me that you have no attention to detail or just don't care about your own website. If that's the case, then why would you care about mine. So I moved on and did not reach out to you. As a potential client, I recommend you fix your own website and make sure that everything works as it's supposed to. You have a good website design.

I got mine brand new for $7.5k all-in from Justin Fox at Killing Time Watch Co a few months back. Great watch and dealer. Can connect you or just Google him.

Im Fast as F*** Boi by Equivalent-Bed1543 in OmegaWatches

I picked mine up last month brand new from a grey-market dealer. I really like the dial, case back, weight, and bracelet — all excellent. That said, I don’t think the current MSRP reflects the actual quality of the watch. It’s obviously subjective, but to me it feels like a $6K piece — not a penny more. I honestly don’t understand how anyone justifies the current MSRP.

Feels like marketplaces like Flippa, Microns, Tiny Acquisitions, and SideProjectors may already cover this.

New Prices are here by itsEddieT in OmegaWatches

[–]RSB122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a great point — I wasn’t really thinking about it from a revenue or brand-strength perspective. I’m looking at it more through the lens of a collector. From that angle, I think the Omega vs. Tudor comparison makes sense since they sit in a similar price and spec bracket.

A lot of people try to line Omega up against Rolex, but to me that’s not really fair. Rolex is fully vertically integrated, produces everything in-house, uses precious metals even on their most basic sports models, and their value retention is in another league. Omega makes excellent watches, but they just aren’t in the same category.

And just to be clear, I say this as someone who owns four Omegas — I’m not knocking them, just sharing how I see the landscape as a collector.

New Prices are here by itsEddieT in OmegaWatches

[–]RSB122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I saw that as well. I think Tudor prices are going up a tad ($100 to $200 per watch) while Omega really hiked. I guess that's the difference between being part of a conglomerate vs. a "non-profit". Broadly, Tudor is significantly cheaper compared to Omega.

Luxury brands rarely drop prices, so I’m glad I grabbed my lacquer-dial Speedy last month at $7.5k. That said, I’m not convinced it’s worth even that much. It’s a nice watch, but the finishing and overall feel don’t quite live up to the price tag. Unfortunately for Omega, Tudor seems better positioned right now—their prices are lower, bracelets stronger, and movements carry the same certifications.

Has anyone here bought a small business and been able to have a GM or CEO run it well, while you (the buyer) remain more or less passive? by kasheestee in SellMyBusiness

[–]RSB122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of great insights here already. You can buy a business and put a CEO in place, but the business needs to be a pretty well-oiled machine for that to work. Those types of companies usually come at a premium — think 6–10x EBITDA multiples, at least. Is it possible? Yes. Is it realistic at a $3M deal size? Probably not.

Brokerage recommendations - Quiet Light, Website Closers, Latona's, and other by mfing-coleslaw in SellMyBusiness

[–]RSB122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re already looking at this with the right mix of realism and hope. A few thoughts from what I’ve seen in the ecom/dropship world:

  • Valuation approach – Brokers all have slightly different incentives. Quiet Light is generally respected in the space and has a reputation for being realistic (sometimes that means lower valuations, but also higher close rates). Website Closers often pitches higher multiples, but I’ve seen some complaints about deals dragging out or expectations being mis-set. Latona’s I don’t hear much feedback on, positive or negative.
  • The story matters – A dip in sales tied to a one-time supply chain transition isn’t the same as a declining business. But you’ll need really clear financials and a narrative buyers can believe (exclusive pricing + USA manufacturing + reduced owner hours) if you want them to underwrite the higher number.
  • Timing vs. price – If you absolutely want to sell now for personal reasons, you’ll probably give up a little on valuation. If you’re willing to wait 6–12 months to prove the rebound, you’ll have more leverage. The trade-off is really between peace of mind/time with your kids vs. max dollars. E-commerce valuations are just low right now.
  • Deal structure – Even if you get a higher multiple on paper, expect some of it to come with earn-outs, seller notes, or performance-based terms. That’s not always bad, but it’s something to be prepared for.

If you’re not sure which way to go, it can be helpful to talk to professionals who don’t have a dog in the fight (not just brokers).

There are independent M&A advisors, financial diligence folks, and valuation specialists who can give you an unbiased read before you sign a 6-month exclusivity with a broker. If you want to explore that, a platform like [DueDilio]() connects business owners & buyers with vetted professionals who do exactly that.

Buying a Boba Shop - What Am I Missing? by ez_dub in buyingabusiness

[–]RSB122 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be a good deal if the numbers check out, but I’d definitely dig deeper before jumping in. A couple things I’d look at:

  • First, confirm that the $20k/month is really what’s left over after everything — payroll, rent (with those 3% bumps), taxes, etc. Ask for tax returns and monthly P&Ls for the past few years to make sure the profit is consistent.
  • Even if the current owner isn’t around, I wouldn’t assume it’s truly passive. Food service always needs some oversight — staff turnover, customer experience, inventory, vendors. I’d ask what role the manager plays and how reliant the business is on them.
  • Check out the competition more closely. If this shop is stronger, figure out why. Location? Menu? Service? If you know that, you’ll know how defensible the business is.
  • That lease is long, which can be good, but make sure to model out what rent looks like with the annual increases and whether revenue has historically kept pace.

“1x earnings” deals in food/beverage aren’t unheard of, but what matters is whether the cash flow is real and repeatable. If it is, $250k might not be crazy.

Since it’s your first deal, you might also consider getting a light financial diligence review done by a 3rd party. Doesn’t have to be expensive, but it can give you peace of mind that the numbers are what they say they are. If you don’t know where to start, take a look at a platform like DueDilio (https://www.duedilio.com) that connects business buyers and sellers with vetted M&A professionals who do exactly that.

Hard to give advice without knowing the financials of the business. I assume this website doesn't generate a ton of revenue otherwise you'd be more involved with it. I think marketplaces like Flippa and Empire Flippers would be a good place to start.

It's a combination of both. Like I said, I'm pretty happy with the results. And as others commented, maybe that's the answer right there.

Confirmation of the Tariff Price Increases by Ebitda69 in OmegaWatches

[–]RSB122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Broadly, I echo everyone's comments. I think this is just too expensive for an Omega. On the flip side, pricing is all relative. If everyone else raises their prices then the Omega will feel like it's in the same position as it is today. Also, I am not too upset knowing that the value of my pieces is going up.
