CEO Empire Builder

One of the best books we've read on private equity is by Adam Coffey. The title is The Private Equity Playbook.

Adam's newest book is based on a two-day presentation he gave on how to roll up an industry purposely and effectively. He turned his 300-plus page slide deck into the book Empire Builder: The Road to a Billion.

Some of the topics we cover include:

• investing in what you know
• a simple example using a mowing company and its unit economics
• the industry traits for empire building
• the 30:1 rule for managers
• the rule of 130
• price escalation clauses
• Sandy Ogg
• Financial diligence and proctology exams
• the best way to read this five-hour book
