The roast
Jeremy runs Because Ventures, which is a perfect name because he definitely needs a reason to explain why he’s busy buying up Shopify apps to fix his own lack of engagement. With a 0.15% interaction rate, his newsletter Let’s Buy a Biz is currently the most expensive way to send a private email.
About Jeremy
After a 11 yrs of scaling the fastest-growing Shopify Plus Brands and Apps, it's time for me to run them. Because Ventures acquires and operates: → eCom brands ($1M-$10M EBITDA) → B2B SaaS companies ($1M-$10M ARR) We're not financial engineers. We're operators who buy bizs.What makes us different: → We actually run the playbook. Not consultants. Not advisors. We get in the weeds.→ We promote from within. Your team matters. We're scaling support that will fill gaps and accelerate growth.→ We're flexible on structure. Full exit. Partial liquidity. Growth round. Whatever makes sense.Coco AI is the 1st Acquisition in the Fund:→ WhatsApp Marketing AI Agents for $5m - $500m Shopify brands→ 7 Fig ARR biz. 2x'ing YoYWhat we look for:eCom:→ $10M-$100M topline revenue→ 50%+ DTC sales (not counting Amazon)→ <100 SKUs (ideally <25)→ Natural repeat purchase behavior→ Unique value prop, not commoditized basicsSaaS:→ $1M-$10M ARR→ 80%+ gross margins→ Ecom enablement focus (Shopify ecosystem preferred)→ No single customer >30% of revenue→ Missing a GTM function we can scale (content, outbound, partnerships)Geography: North America only (for now).We like the weird stuff. Distressed assets. Carve-outs. Odd verticals.Not interested in: Alphabet soup bizs (DEA, ATF, FDA oversight), basic apparel, anything that doesn't stand out.When I'm not living the Ecom lifestyle I'm learning Mandarin, and exploring the flavors of my kitchen. I write a weekly Public Brand Teardown newsletter + share my journey 👉: https://letsbuyabiz.beehiiv.com/subscribe

The US vs. China AI race is a lie. Chinese models have already caught up. OpenRouter's token breakdown is 50-50 US/Chinese. IN JUNE. At this rate. It's parabolic growth from here. They'll inhale token consumption by Q2 2027. China will trail US frontier labs by 3 mos. Charge 80% less. Making it too cheap to not use them. The market will evolve to Walmart vs. Louis Voutton. Certain customers will pay a premium for Claude and OpenAI But 90% of the market will use Chinese models. US’s only hope is to stay premium.

Peloton Interactive ($2B) is the worst Consumer Device biz of all time. 11% Gross Margins at $700m in Sales. 11%! ELEVEN PERCENT. That's borderline criminal. There's a reason that this stock has gone no where. Ford and Boeing are the only other biz I found at such a low Gross Margin. It's time Peloton reaslizes they aren't good manufacturers. Sell this dumpster fire. Scale the app. Call it a day. The full teardown and turnaround here: letsbuyabiz.xyz/subscribe
