Since “The Profit” first premiered, Marcus Lemonis, Chairman and CEO of Camping World and Good Sam Enterprises, has invested $75 million of his own money in the companies featured on the series.
In each episode, 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.
“The Profit” is produced for CNBC by Machete Productions with Amber Mazzola serving as executive producer. Jim Ackerman and Luke Bauer are the executive producers for CNBC.”
What do you think? Have you seen The Profit? Will you watch the new episodes?
I wonder how many business people regret doing business with him? The percentage of the business he wants is outrageous. Just like dealing with a lone shark! All the money this guy has and he wears tennis shoes? I would save the postage and not bother contacting him.
I love this show. I like watching Marcus throw everything he has into the business he’s working. He’s very talented, with people, sales, image, etc. Marcus has so much patience! I wish I had his patience. THANX for a great TV show, I like the variety of businesses and that he has many different ways to help. And THANX to Marcus for your efforts to help others, not just yourself.
