Martinis with Scott

This week we get into how deals are packaged, why focus matters, a live opportunity in Alberta's energy sector, and a reminder that staying humble is always good advice.In this episode:• Lesson of the Week – Too many entrepreneurs are pitching without numbers, structure, or focus. Investors need clarity: how they get in, how they get out, and what happens in between.• The Inner Circle – Our live community for founders, executives, and advisors is growing. Next meeting is Tuesday. Bring your deal, bring your questions, and sharpen your strategy.• Deal of the Week – A flow meter company in Alberta, one of only two vendors approved across Canada's midstream oil and gas industry, is in a sale process. We've launched a solicitation to sell or bring in $2M equity.• Struggles of the Week – Sometimes the struggle is just being too busy. But stay tuned - next week may involve litigation with a NYSE-listed giant behaving badly.• Observation of the Week – A story from Las Vegas in the 90s and today's headlines about Tesla put success in perspective. There's always someone playing at a bigger level.If your company is in transition — high growth, financial distress, or dealmaking — Sinclair Range is here to help.#CapitalRaising #Entrepreneurship #BusinessTurnaround #PrivateEquity #Leadership #CashFlow #MergersAndAcquisitions

This week's episode blends economic reality checks with behind-the-scenes dealmaking, negotiation strategy, and the ongoing rebuild at Sinclair Range.In this episode:• Canada's economy contracts 1.6% in Q2 2025, with exports plunging 31% and unemployment hitting its highest level since 2016 (outside the pandemic). Does Mark Carney have a plan?• A restructuring file where a customer dispute led to insolvency pressures — and how applying my ATMOG negotiation framework turned it into a lifeline.• The Inner Circle: Deals & Capital is gaining momentum. Nearly 30 founders, executives, investors, and advisors are now on the admitted list. Why the community is working and what's next.• Struggles of the week: when banks don't show, lawyers push liquidation, and you find yourself needing a new enemy.• End-of-summer reflections: a season of rebuilding, new deals every week, and how Sinclair Range is balancing cash flow, client service, and AI-driven efficiency.

This week's insights range from timeless marketing strategy to messy real-world restructurings, with lessons on how leadership, fundamentals, and clear process make the difference in deals.In this episode:• A quick MBA-level lesson in marketing strategy: the 3Cs and 4Ps. Outdated in the classroom, still essential for real-world pitches and business plans.• A restructuring file where a U.S. customer owes $1 million but claims offset through a kickback scheme. Why it matters for insolvency law, creditors, lenders, and the entire supply chain.• Why the AI “bubble” narrative is everywhere this week — and why I was saying the same thing in my Growth Quest keynote back in May.• The Inner Circle: Deals & Capital is live. Nearly 30 founders, investors, and advisors joined the first session. The next one is Tuesday, August 26 at 3 p.m. Eastern. Bring your deal, bring your questions.#SinclairRange #ScottSinclair #WeekInReview #Deals #CapitalRaising #BusinessTurnaround #PrivateEquity #Entrepreneurship #CashFlow #InnerCircle #Negotiation #Leadership #MergersAndAcquisitions #Founders #BusinessStrategy #SMBfinance #Marketing #AIBubble #Restructuring

This week we hosted the first-ever meeting of The Inner Circle: Deals & Capital. Close to 30 founders, executives, investors, brokers, and advisors joined us on Zoom to pitch deals, share challenges, and sharpen strategies. The next session is Tuesday, August 26 at 3 p.m. Eastern. Bring your deal and your questions.In this episode:• Why bad news should be delivered immediately. Delaying only burns relationships, wastes time, and creates unnecessary stress for your team. • A real creditor interaction from this week shows how turning a problem into a clear process benefits everyone.• Progress on a CAD $15 million bridge loan for a Canadian heavy oil producer backed by $625 million in reserves and assets. • We also structured an equity raise for a natural health products startup that prioritizes investor returns.• Our plastics recycling project hits more snags, from unrealistic timelines to shareholder issues. The need for the technology is massive, but so are the roadblocks.• On “book-a-meeting” culture and why making someone click a link to get on your schedule is the wrong way to start a business relationship.

Week in Review – August 8, 2025 | Sinclair RangeThis week at Sinclair Range, we spent serious time preparing for The Inner Circle: Deals & Capital. The calls start Tuesday, August 12 at 3 p.m. Eastern and continue every other Tuesday. If you're raising capital, restructuring, or navigating challenges — show up.In This Episode:• Lesson of the Week:Be a magnet. You can't sell financial deals — people have to want in. Structure and storytelling make the difference.• Interesting Deal:Refinancing and restructuring for a client with a major receivable standoff. The customer says they're owed payments that were never contracted. If the company had collected, they likely wouldn't be insolvent. Now we're preparing to push the conversation forward — starting with attention.• Struggles of the Week:Dealing with lenders who haven't caught up to the current situation. When the only thing left to sell is growth, the story has to be real — and built on trust.• MusingsOn governments and not-for-profits: broken processes get excused, but they don't get fixed. What do you do? Be the best option. Make them want to work with you.

Scott's back from a golf break (4 rounds in 5 days - now the back is jacked) and diving into what's happening at Sinclair Range during the summer slowdown.Here's what we're covering this week:Lesson of the Week• Why do we prepare financial models?• Not to predict the future—but to clarify our assumptions• A good model forces you to think about what really drives profit and cash flow• And it gives you something to share with stakeholders• Never send a model that shows failure -fix the assumptions, then get to workInteresting File of the Week• The Inner Circle: Deals & Capital launches August 12 at 3pm Eastern• This is a free, private Zoom group for founders, executives, and advisors• We meet every other Tuesday to• Pitch deals• Share challenges• Get feedback• Sharpen strategiesStruggles of the Week• July and August - hard to gain traction; You can close a deal, but you can't really start one• Reminded again that closings fall apart when admin is a mess• We offer virtual, fractional controllership and bookkeeping at a reasonable cost to help you get your house in orderScott's Musings• A death in the extended community last week• Life is short -enjoy it#Entrepreneurship #CapitalRaising #PrivateEquity #BusinessStrategy #FinancialModeling#Deals #Leadership #FounderLife #StartupCommunity #SinclairRange #InnerCircle#BusinessGrowth #CashFlow #Execution

This week: when lawyers derail deals, a high-stakes bridge loan, and a closing that crashed at the finish line.Lesson Learned of the Week Lawyers are there to protect the deal - not make it. Use them to paper what's been agreed, not to run point. And definitely not to negotiate on your behalf. Especially not litigators. There are exceptions, sure – but, as a rule, deals should be made by business leaders.Interesting File of the Week We're placing a $15M bridge loan for a Canadian oil and gas group, backed by $750M+ in assets. First secured position carved out in an interesting structure, default remedies are pre-negotiated, referral fee of $150K. Plus: $1B in tax losses we're looking to unlock.Struggles of the Week Continuing the story of the real estate deal drama. Buyer sends legal letters right before closing claiming they expected assets to be left in the building, despite having no right to the assets. Buyer fails to close and instead “extends” closing without consent.  Says they're suing. Never hear from the business people, only the lawyer. Total mess.Musings Entrepreneurs wear different hats, such as shareholder, director, officer, employee, lender. Each has unique rights and obligations. If you're lending to your own company, document it like you would for a stranger. Shareholder loans are real loans - or they're worthless in a fight.The Inner Circle – Deals & Capital Live, private Zoom community for dealmakers working through real problems, sharing tactics, and raising capital.

Welcome to the Week in Review with Scott Sinclair, Founder and President of Sinclair Range. In this episode, Scott shares a candid look into the reality of getting deals done during the summer slowdown, managing conflicting schedules, and staying focused when momentum stalls.This week's episode is pre-recorded, and for good reason—it's been a long few days packed with travel, shifting meetings, legal friction, and unexpected weather.In this episode:Personal reflections:Scott discusses the challenges of trying to get real work done during Stampede week in Calgary. What happens when the calendar says business, but the city says party?Lesson of the week:A potential client approaches with a request for capital but proposes terms that reveal a major misunderstanding of how commercial financing works. The takeaway: you don't have to be an expert, but you do need to have a clue.File of the week:An ongoing financing deal is stuck due to delays in executing a key agreement. Progress may be back on track, and Scott shares a powerful reminder—those who control the drafting and the model often control the deal itself.Struggles of the week:The firm is working to close a meaningful real estate transaction, and as always, the final stretch before closing is intense. Communications from opposing counsel, title insurance conditions, and asset expectations all come into play. Scott reflects on how small issues can feel critical in the moment, but most of them tend to resolve themselves.What Scott's thinking about:After listening to a recent podcast with Jordan Peterson and Scott Adams, Scott dives into the concept of narrative control—how our minds filter for what fits our internal story. Whether it's called manifestation or self-authoring, the point is the same: be specific about your aim, and return to it every day.

Happy Independence Day!
