In this episode, Chris Edwards breaks down how he quit a comfy consulting
job in the middle of the pandemic, bought an overlooked flooring store with
just 10% down, and turned it into a 24x return in four years.
◼️ How he turned just 10% down into a 24x return
◼️ Why he bought a flooring store in an isolated mountain town that bigger
buyers wrote off
◼️ The year-one "I thought I ruined my life" stretch, and what got him through it
◼️ The unglamorous operator playbook that grew the bottom line, from ripping
out a fax-and-paper system to bringing on offshore help
◼️ Why he walked away at the top and is now building a flooring company from the ground up, funded by the proceeds and everything the first one taught him
