“Some days are tough. Other days are energizing. That’s the reality of building a business.” Not every deal goes smoothly and not every strategy works perfectly. There are days when everything feels challenging, margins are tight, or sales stall. And there are days when a deal closes, a strategy succeeds, or you see real progress. The key is staying consistent, learning from the tough days, and celebrating the wins when they come.

I've been a note buyer for many years. And I'm actively looking for portfolios to buy. So I'm not "out" but I'm not full of wide eyed optimism that every buyer will pay in full. Comments? Maybe a side bar discussion?
