Daymond, What would you consider a good EBITDA at the end of the year for any company? I’ve always heard aim at 15% after all costs, wages, ect. Thanks!
I think that at the end of the day, you want to try to aim for 20% after all costs, wages, advertising, etc. on your EBITDA because in the “lean years” this will range anywhere from 8% to 20% and in “good years” it will fluctuate up to 30% after all fees and operation costs are paid up.

Hey Daymond, I’m a clothing designer. I design jeans mostly, yet low on capitol so business is at a snails pace at the moment. My designs are great; lots of good response. What’s the best way to boost my business and gain capitol and exposure, and perhaps to find an investor?
Several different questions are asked; In regards to gaining exposure, social networking is probably the best way. You get the purest response from people who do not know you. Putting product into stores so that actual consumers, that do not have any interest just you, go in and pick up your product, solely. After this point, you then move towards making small sales, and when you get up to a sales point where you can show growth and steady revenue income on a small level, you then go after investors, depending on your needs. Most times, investors are not the most important thing, it’s the strategic investor. The person who can not only give u capitol, but someone who understands all aspects of the business.
Good luck
Daymond John
