After quitting my job at Deloitte earlier this year, I’ve been focusing on acquiring a Salesforce.com SI out of the South East region. I am currently under LOI negotiations with the seller and would like to bring 1-2 advisors onboard (min. investment $50k) who can help the business secure NEW enterprise logos in the future. I am backed by an institutional investor so not worried about closing. If anyone is interested please DM.
Revenue: $4.4M
SDE: $2M
Asking Price: $6.5M (contd.)

I'm not in the position to join at the moment, unfortunately, but I just wanted to say good for you - you are an inspiration to me!

Thank you for the kind words. Honestly, it’s not as difficult as I initially thought to be. Once you figure out the playbook then it’s rinse and repeat. This will be my 2nd acquisition so my experience is limited but so far so good.

Just because something seems weird to you doesn’t mean others don’t find value in it.

Switching from commission to salary!

I’m considering a less sales-oriented role that doesn’t pay commission. The new role will have a higher base but lower overall earning potential.

What % haircut should be expected? As an example, if I make 100k (base + commission) today, would it be realistic to ask for 90k (10% cut) + equity to make up the difference?

I don’t think I have enough YOE to go for a program architect role at SF otherwise I’d be interested.
