So, I identified a market filled with cash cows - parents pour so much cash into these businesses and they are mostly run by people with mediocre business skills. There's a ton of opportunity to roll these businesses up, optimize them and grow them into bigger businesses.

Would love to bounce this idea around with a roll-up ninja. Please DM me.

Are we talking daycares here? If so, its an area thats already being explored by PE. Few issues you run into with them.... most only make between 200-300k SDE so like $150-250k EBITDA so youd need to roll 5-10 together to even get a decent base that PE wants to look at... then getting form $1m to $20M in EBITDA is A LOT of acquisitions... There arent a lot of 3-10 unit daycares out there, just a lot of one offs, and finally the biggest issue you run into is that you're dealing with anything Kids related, so parents are going to be crazy overprotective and hate the idea that someone is buying a bunch of these (people are afraid of big corporations taking care of their kids.)

hi, Nunzio. Would be happy to chat sometime with you. Consolidation strategies are my bread and butter, and would be happy to talk with you about how to effectively run a roll-up operation as well.
