Dolphin Pools Acquisition Success
Share
A story about how a company called Enduring Ventures successfully acquired and grew a pool construction business.
"They bought a company called Dolphin Pools or something like that in Arizona. They hired this one operator who's really good who took it over from the original boomer owner. The operator took over and it's grown like crazy - it's now one of their cash cows.
They also bought several internet service providers in rural areas where they don't have AT&T or Time Warner - they have local providers instead. They bought about 5 different ISPs and they're all doing pretty good."
The story illustrates a successful case of buying and growing traditional businesses through professional management, particularly focusing on businesses where the original owners are looking to exit.
