Episode 2 — COVID-19 effects on Pest Control Investments
Paul Giannamore and Patrick Baldwin discuss where money will end up after the COVID-19 pandemic. How will essential service businesses look for investors in the long-run? Pest control is an essential business. Will investors shift their portfolios to 'de-risked' industries because of Covid-19? How will the pandemic affect future pest control acquisitions? Will this shift valuations on residential vs commercial segments? Will the DOW return to its pre-COVID-19 high?

Episode 1 — Deals, Contingencies, and Gotchas

What happens after the sale... after Paul's first pest control deal in 2003, what happened after the close?
