The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Rick Garcia no published score: no usable exchanges on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q business together. Um, you know, I guess my next question would be, um, you know, if you had tips for, you know, sellers, it sounds like if you're on micro choir every day, you're probably looking at a lot of different businesses. Um, what are, if you had to give like, you know, people looking to sell businesses on micro choir, like Two pieces of advice. What would it be?

A Uh, here, here's one that would be interesting because it's not, I think a lot of acquirers out there, and this is for the sellers, but I'm going to start with the acquirers, uh, may not be as aggressive as, as I am, as an example, like, Hey, let's put a deal together. Here's what I can do. And here's what I can do, but let's figure out how to put a deal together. Right. I like what your product is. Um, so, so for a seller, I think if you're interested, if you're really interested in putting your, your, your business Out there and selling your business. Um, because particularly those that, that are just kind of hanging on and have already found a different project to work on, like let somebody know you're willing to negotiate upfront. Like let somebody know this is what you, this is, you know, you're, you're willing to, to build, you know, good terms into, to attract someone, to take it and do something really good with it. I'll give you just a quick example. I found another company on Microquire that I had, uh, was in touch with. They were, I think out of Italy. They were out of the Bay Area. They were a Y Combinator company at one point. Uh, they, I think they were back in Italy and, and they have a really, really cool platform. Like their platform, uh, it was, I mean, it's for businesses to, to create content. Right. And I thought it was really awesome platform. And, and I, …

Q Yeah. Like, are you, are you looking to grow these substantially in resale? Are you looking to roll them into your existing company?

A No. Yeah. I'm not going to roll them in. I'm going to keep them as separate entities. Uh, I'll tell you what I think is, is going to happen. I think, uh, I think Monster is an example. Can scale, uh, you know, to, you know, again, that could be a, a, a massively scalable organization, right? Um, so I think, uh, Monster, we could, I could scale that to, you know, 10, ten million dollars in AR are pretty, Not, not easily. It's been a long haul, uh, G-Twelve as an example to get past that, but ultimately, uh, I think it'd be a ten million dollar organization. Like there's, there's no desire to just kind of get in and get out, right? It's the space that I understand. Uh, I think I'd like to create, I, I enjoy creating jobs for people, so I think that's, uh, you know, I think that's a pretty cool place, because, you know, you treat your employees like, like you would your family, essentially, and maybe people disagree with me, but I have a good connection with all of my team members, right? And that doesn't matter if they're here, El Salvador, the Philippines, it doesn't matter, you know, because I've got, you know, employees globally. Um, uh, so, so yeah, I think that is there. I think the other one, uh, uh, engage. Oh, you know, um, I don't think there's a, there's a, uh, there's a shelf life for that either because, you know, there's so many, so many different businesses out ther…
