The second provider I've been working with for 4-ish years. We initially worked on an acquisition that went south because the seller's numbers proved to be a train wreck because she was commingling money - leading to the banks losing confidence in the accuracy of her business/numbers.
In redirecting, he started his own business, and now, in his 3rd year, he's going to hit $2M this year, and we're structuring a $120k-ish total package to compensate a COO to come in and take over daily operations so he can operate more effectively as CEO - focusing on overall vision and execution.
Why do I mentioned these two providers, one located in the midwest and the other on the loony left coast - two TOTALLY different markets and associated dynamics?
Here's the commonality (besides working with us) ..... wait for it ....... wait for it ........ they both started with a single vehicle and a whole lot of hustle, AND, AND, AND they didn't build their foundation on Medicaid/brokers!
I know, I know, I don't know what I'm talking about.
"Joel, the ONLY people needing NEMT are on Medicaid!"
"Joel, you can't build a serious NEMT business without brokers!"
"Joel, hospitals and facilities don't contract with providers!"
"Joel, Medicaid is the way, the truth, and the life!"
"Joel, you're an international sex symbol drunk on Kaopectate!"
OK, I agree, the last part is absolutely true, but for everything else - SMH, OMG, WTH, AYKM, etc., etc., etc.
Folks, life is TOO DAMN SHORT to live, act, and operate like someone else's B!@#$.
Go forth and make REAL money! Go forth and make REAL Mo Fo moves!
NO ONE is going to scale your business or your life but YOU!!
STOP being held back! STOP listening to haters and doubters! STOP being afraid to think outside the box! STOP allowing other people/entities to control your business and access to money!
See you at the Top!
