Most companies don’t get bought—they quietly shut down. We pull back the curtain on how to join the 20 percent who exit well, using a clear framework that starts with valuation, upgrades operations, and ends with disciplined execution. Josiah traces the arc from a kid running a lawn-mowing crew to leading 24-hour global innovation cycles and then building and selling a division backed by private equity. That journey created a repeatable playbook for founders who want to grow value now and sell on their terms later.
We break down the five stages that move a business from owner-dependent to buyer-ready: assess what the company is truly worth, optimize the quick wins that lift margins, transform the core systems and team, position the story for the right acquirer, and then execute relentlessly. If you’ve ever wondered why two similar companies sell for wildly different prices, we make it concrete with EBITDA, SDE, and multiples—and show how succession planning, customer concentration, and clean financials change the number buyers will pay. You’ll also hear what different generations of owners get wrong: boomers waiting too long, younger founders delaying governance, and mid-career leaders needing a roadmap to act.
We don’t stop at the wire. Selling creates a new problem—managing the largest check of your life. We talk through post-close strategy, from tax-efficient structures to investment discipline that protects freedom and purpose. And because momentum matters, we explain how keeping planning and transaction under one roof with TransActage preserves trust and speed from preparation to LOI to close.
If you’re serious about raising your multiple and designing an exit you’ll be proud of, hit play, subscribe for more founder-first strategy, and leave a review with the one metric you’ll improve this quarter.
