    About The Profit:
    When Marcus Lemonis isn’t running his multi-billion dollar company, Camping World, he goes on the hunt for struggling businesses that are desperate for cash and ripe for a deal. In each one-hour episode of The Profit, Lemonis makes an offer that’s impossible to refuse; his cash for a piece of the business and a percentage of the profits. And once inside these companies, he’ll do almost anything to save the business and make himself a profit; even if it means firing the president, promoting the secretary or doing the work himself.

    I really like how this guy can put the hard questions to business owners in such a way that they actually begin to see the big picture; whereas most of us, in confrontations, just start a bigger fight. I'm quite impressed by the mastery of human psychology.

    How could I forget also a Mercedes-Benz will depreciate within the first 2 to 3 years by 50 to 70%. So when a customer walks in and sees a Toyota Camry or a Mercedes Benz, Both three years old for the same price which one do you think they are going to choose.

    I’m sorry Marcus usually I do agree with you however I am in the car business and when you have a luxurious layout like Pete did, you do not destroy that. You simply go to the auto auctions and buy luxurious cars at a very discounted price.
