Here’s a summary of the great stuff that we cover in this show:

• Everstores is a technology company that uses its tech stack to acquire and integrate Shopify stores and provide a unified dashboard for merchants to manage their operations.
• They prefer certain verticals such as pets, mother and baby, and mental health, but consider investing in any store if there is a promising investment case thesis. However, certain categories pose operational and legal challenges that may make it difficult to advertise and internationalize.
• Fabio discusses their inside-out valuation methodology in acquiring Shopify businesses, which includes the use of two models: customer behavior and customer acquisition cost. They focus on businesses with a high customer retention rate and profitability on a base level before factoring in other costs. They prioritize finding a business with a great product-market fit and community.
• When acquiring e-commerce businesses, Everstores focuses on maintaining the original brand voice and running the business in the same way as the owner did. They do not tie the owner into the business post-acquisition and do not require them to stay on as consultants or restrict them from starting a similar business in a different space.
• The common mistakes that business owners make when selling their business are not running the business while focusing on the exit and focusing too much on crafting a story around what the buyer can do with the business.
