Buyer-Rep Intel
“The business complicates the domain. The domain's value is going to get dragged down by the multiple of the business. The better buyer historically: wants the domain only.”
“Anything in the 10-to-15 range is all-time top-30 epic. Anything 15-to-20 is top-5 all time. So if I'm guiding Deb and someone comes with a $7.5M cash offer for this domain, I'd be insane not to take it. But my contract with her is 12.5.”
“Tasso could never get him across that finish line. He wanted me to terminate everybody in Canada, then him to rehire them — basically saying Deb, you pay all the severance, and we'll cherry-pick what we want. Maybe he was just looking for the domain name.”
