<p><strong>My guest on this episode</strong> <strong>is</strong> <strong>Greg Geronemus, co-founder</strong> <strong>and managing partner of Footbridge Partners,</strong> <strong>a traditional search investment firm. This is my second episode with Greg, the first being episode</strong> <strong>17 back in April</strong> <strong>2020, where Greg</strong> <strong>shared his experience acquiring</strong> <strong>and operating</strong> <strong>his search</strong> <strong>company SmarTours</strong> <strong>and launching Footbridge.</strong></p><p><strong>Well, two years later, Greg and his partner</strong> <strong>David have</strong> <strong>raised that fund and are halfway through their investment period</strong> <strong>with a budding portfolio</strong> <strong>of searchers.</strong> <strong>In this second episode, Greg shares his</strong> <strong>view on the role of a</strong> <strong>search investor, misconceptions in traditional search,</strong> <strong>the risk in buying at larger multiples,</strong> <strong>and a few wild stories from his time running SmarTours. Enjoy.</strong></p><p>Listen weekly and follow the show on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/think-like-an-owner/id1445929750" rel="nofollow">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3Fbv9d4HpDwuO4MOPvgdvO?si=bfa67fb76c654755" rel="nofollow">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5yZWRjaXJjbGUuY29tLzI1ODM4YjdlLTdlZTgtNGZjMC05ZjU0LTViNjJkZDNmZTBjNg" rel="nofollow">Google Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://www.stitcher.com/show/think-like-an-owner" rel="nofollow">Stitcher</a>, <a href="https://www.breaker.audio/think-like-an-owner" rel="nofollow">Breaker</a>, and <a href="https://tunein.com/podcasts/Business--Economics-Podcasts/Think-Like-An-Owner-p1180625/" rel="nofollow">TuneIn</a>.</p><p><br></p><p><strong><u>Links:</u></strong></p><p><a href="https://www.footbridgepartners.com/" rel="nofollow">Footbridge Partners</a></p><p><a href="https://www.alexbridgeman.com/podcasts/greg-geronemus-footbri
