Co-Founder and CEO, 420 Science

After a successful exit in December 2022, I'm ready to buy my next business.

I'm looking for a service or digital products business with steady revenue, but opportunities to improve operations and the customer experience, generating $500k - 700k SDE with no physical location.

Any leads appreciated.

I started 420 Science in 2004 with my best friend, Gary. The great thing about starting a business when you're 24 is that you've got nothing to lose.

• $7M revenue / $1.2M profit in our best year
• Many years of losing money, breaking even, and small profits
• Invaluable experience gained learning about hiring, firing, e-commerce, email marketing, logistics, finance, a million other things, and doing it all with one hand tied behind our back because some plants are illegal.

I was a programmer in the PCI department at TicketMaster. We wrote the software that call center agents were using to sell tickets.

I worked on DSL Support team in the Phoenix office. These were the early days of broadband with fewer than 1,000 DSL customers at the time.

This was my first full-time job. I had a great experience and learned a ton about the internet, problem solving, and the importance of company culture.
