Exploring a potential business acquisition is a bit like searching for a new house. You spend time evaluating your options and looking for something that fits your needs.

When people say they’re in the groove, they mean it as a positive. They’ve found a way of doing things that works, so they keep at it. But even the best grooves, if you stay in them long enough, can start to look a lot like a rut.
I want to talk for a minute about trust. Trust and ducks. I swear it will all make sense.
