This week on The Exit: Peter Corbett, previous founder and CEO of iStrategyLabs, a digital agency he bootstrapped and sold to WPP, shares his journey from being laid off at 27 to building a 100-employee agency with tens of millions in revenue over nine years.

Peter discusses key aspects of his entrepreneurial journey, including early hires, KPIs tracked, and the exit process.

He focused on top-line growth, client exposure metrics, and internal leadership evaluations. The exit process began with informal conversations with potential buyers, eventually leading to a formal process involving 65 potential buyers and narrowing down to WPP, and closing the deal five days before his wedding.

Peter provides insights on deal structure, including earn-out arrangements and his decision to leave after 18 months. He explains the timing of the exit, citing both business conditions and personal reasons.

Post-exit, Peter has transitioned to executive coaching and is launching a micro-membership program in New York City focused on the mental health and well-being of leaders and entrepreneurs.

For more details and insights from his entrepreneurial journey, listen to the latest episode of The Exit.
