An operator-led view of holding company work: acquiring, building and running durable, cash-producing businesses in the real economy. Deal criteria, diligence, integration, capital allocation, and the management questions that arrive the day after a close.Each episode takes one decision — what to pay, what to fix first, when to keep the seller and when not to, how to fund the next deal — and reasons it through from an operator's chair rather than a spreadsheet. Written for people buying and running businesses, not spectating on them. Five or six minutes an episode.Topics include deal criteria and screening, diligence that finds the real risk, deal structure and seller financing, integration priorities after close, capital allocation, management transitions, and running several businesses at once.Produced by HOLD.co, an operator-led holding company.
