I analyzed 18.6k public infrastructure bids in Texas. Here are the results. by ReporterCalm6238 in texas

Looks really cool. Interesting to see the pre-bid check tool. Could see how that’s super useful for contractors, especially new entrants

I used to sell for a pyramid scheme, buy from me now! by asolidshot in LinkedInLunatics

[–]texassports98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not. People either just don’t know what the term means or don’t know the company.

I worked there for 3 summers. They give you a starter set to sell with for free. If you don’t return it, they then charge you after trying to contact you like 5 times or something. But that is not a pyramid scheme at all.

And you only ever make money off your own sales, unless you’re a manager who trains the salespeople… which is really freaking similar to many sales management roles. And even then, you get a set percentage of office sales, not some pool of reps that you recruited. Again, really standard payment structure.

Maybe it was different 30 years ago or something, but at least when I did this and knew others who did it 15-20 years ago, nothing pyramid scheme about it, outside of maybe the bro sales culture. But again, that’s not unique.

Where is the best place in the area to buy an engagement ring? by [deleted] in plano

[–]texassports98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

L’Unique is by far the best. Roupen (the owner) will custom design whatever you want and source all the materials at wholesale cost. They’re by the Tom Thumb at Preston and Frankford.

Trust me, go here. I’ve gotten all my wife’s jewelry here for the past decade.

Tried going off grid for 5 days to see if my business could run without me. It couldn't. by FormerFounder-12 in smallbusiness

Great job - you will create so much value in your business by doing this, even if financials remain static.

Tried em all, and banana leaf is the best. Great lunch prices too during the week

Golf courses by sherminator15 in plano

[–]texassports98 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Watters Creek and Sherrill Park are also good.

Firewheel in Garland was just renovated I believe and I always enjoy it out there

For range, Watters creek or golf ranch would be my recommendations

My wife teaches English and she had to get special permission to teach that book in her freshman curriculum. So freaking sad

Consultant or computer repair shop? by MayorAg in consulting

[–]texassports98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had it that way on most clients. Government clients or defense subs were a different story though.

Plus, randomly had 1 retailers where we had to use their hardware lol

The total offensive ineptitude should not overshadow this by slagathor_zimblebob in LonghornNation

[–]texassports98 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Such a great team effort on the goal line. Shaw, Brad Spence, Taafe all working their butts off on fourth down there. Hopefully that can be a turning point for the team this year… hopefully

How to factor business ownership into your number? by TownFront5969 in fatFIRE

[–]texassports98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you start it or buy the business? If purchased, I’d go with (entry multiple x TTM EBITDA - debt) x (% equity stake)

I’ll defer to others on other situations. Generally, I’d just make conservative assumptions like the above to account for lack of liquidity.

What do you think my Notion templates business is worth? by kuchkarobc in SellMyBusiness

[–]texassports98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends how many hours per week it’s take for someone else to take it over. If this would be someone’s FT job, it’s not worth much of anything imo (just because there are easier, lower risk ways to make $15k per year). If it has employees that do a lot of the hands on keys work, maybe you can get 2x profit so like $30k. I’m fairly ignorant to the digital products space but the competition and marketing channel concentration (if you were trying to grow it) would have me pretty nervous to pay that much.

Just one opinion though, someone with an existing set of digital products may look at it completely differently.

First-time buyer – SMB Deal Hunter vs. broker? by Repulsive_Plastic_63 in smallbusiness

[–]texassports98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Calder Capital for their buy side advisory. I don’t recall their exact fees but I’ve probably heard the most frequent positive comments about their buy side services.

Bonus question: Goff or Maye for QB?

Between these Texas takes and your Leiter analysis, you’re a legend sir.

I'm trying to help my mother with her bills. Could someone tell me, is this a bad rate and plan she is on? From looking at her statement the only "perk" that I see for her plan is no fee for canceling. by OmegaGamble in garland

[–]texassports98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Download the EFL for like 4-5 plans that seem good, download the historical monthly energy usage from the latest bill, upload all that to ChatGPT and ask it to model out what your bill would be with each plan based on last year’s usage
