Welcome to a new episode of Business Lunch! In this episode, Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss dive into the emerging trend of rolling up traditional businesses and supercharging them with AI. They discuss the opportunities and pitfalls of this strategy, offer advice for old-school business owners, aspiring platform companies, and investors, and share real-world examples of value creation through AI integration. This episode is perfect for entrepreneurs, business owners considering acquisitions, and anyone curious about the intersection of AI and business growth.

Highlights:

"Roll ups fail at the integration level, and the integration is really what systems do we have to do that?"

"If you don't invest in up-leveling and AI-fying your business now, you'll be acquired on the cheap."

"The basic building blocks of why you would do a roll up, applied with AI and tech, make perfect sense to me."

"If you're planning on just shutting it down or letting it die a slow and profitable death, then cool. But if it's longer than that, you either have to get on the bus or face being put out of business."
