Pennant International Group Plc’s Post

Talking with Damon Neal and Victor Ortiz about mk North America, Inc.!

I wanted to personally endorse Nick Purslow and the Posh Outdoors venture and fundraiser. I have spent significant time scrutinizing this business plan, investment opportunity, and the team executing it. My career niche the past 5 years has been in launching outdoor hospitality projects, and if I ever had 'expertise' in anything, it would be this. I wanted to share my honest assessment with both pros and cons of the opportunity: Pros: 1.) I believe they are offering a compelling solution for a very real capital problem limiting entrepreneurs and developers amidst a growing industry. 2.) I believe in the industry's long term growth fundamentals. The urgent need for people to disconnect and get outside will only increase as will consumers' appetite for unique experiences. 3.) I believe in the team. I have partnered with Nick Purslow on countless projects in outdoor hospitality, and I believe in his ability to execute, problem solve and get the job done. I have also had the opportunity to meet, speak or partner with Kevin O'Brien, Lee Pritchard, Edward Haynes,  and their advisor Ben Wolff. I believe the entire team has the right expertise, the needed network, customer funnels, and track record of success necessary to make the company a success. 4.) I was impressed by their first operator partner Christel Postel who spent a day showing me their first site in Kananaskis, Canada near Banff. I think both the property and the market are a home run. It is a stunning property in a highly compelling market. 5.) Once the model proves its profitability at the first few sites, growth will be rapid. 6). For my friends motivated by more than money and returns, I want to support a company that is empowering the growth of an industry that gets more people outside and connecting with nature and thus fostering more environmental stewardship. Concerns: - I believe some of their financial projections are overly optimistic including ADR, occupancy and project volume ramp up. I think they will get there, but it will take more time than some of their forecasts. - Raising a series A investment round in a new and poorly understood sector will be a difficult process. This is the target liquidity event for investors like myself, and I expect it will not be easy and far from a certainty. - The model will require ongoing capital infusions to purchase the units which I expect will be slow going for the first few sites. Every start up venture will have significant risks and challenges, but I believe this team will preserve to create an exceptional and valuable company. That is why I am investing (and not an insignificant amount) and encouraging others to look into the opportunity:  https://lnkd.in/gTKrcJc8 If any of our friends in the industry have anything pros or cons to add to my assessment, please feel free to comment. Looking forward to journey Posh Outdoors #tothemoon #getoutside #glamping #outdoorhospitality
