In this episode, Evan Stewart breaks down how he searched for years without quitting his day job, bought a 30-year-old commercial printing business making $1.7M a year in profit, and grew it past $3M in an industry most people write off as dying.

◼️ How he raised money from friends and family using a playbook from his political fundraising days (and the one question he used to cut his list)
◼️ The last-minute demand from the bank that nearly killed the deal, and the move by the sellers that saved it
◼️ Why he borrowed the absolute max the bank would give him for his first deal (he believes bigger is actually safer)
◼️ What happened when he realized he was "the dumbest person in the building," and how working second shift won over his 70-person team
◼️ The diligence mistake he regrets most: building model after model when he should have been studying the people
