Who is the Guest?

  • Marvin L. Storm has founded, acquired, and scaled businesses over the past four decades. After exiting his last business, he planned to enjoy life, but after a brief stint in the slow lane, he realized that sitting on the sidelines wasn’t his style.
  • After considering his options, he felt that leveraging his decades of startup, operational, and C-suite experience could help entrepreneurs launch, scale their business, create enterprise value, and then execute a profitable business exit.
  • With this idea in mind, he launched the Business Exit Stories Podcast where he interviews M&A Advisors, Investment Bankers, Business Brokers, Wealth Managers, and other transaction professionals inviting them to share war stories of their good, bad, and ugly deals for the benefit of entrepreneurs who are in the early stages of thinking about and positioning their businesses for an eventual exit.

Quotes:

  • “[Buyers] want to buy the future. They don't want to buy the past. They will pay you for the past -but they don't want to pay you for revenue and profits that you haven't earned yet.”
  • "Take Abraham Lincoln, he was thinking of the long term when he accepted the presidency and went to war. He was thinking of what this country would be decades, if not 100 years, down the road, and felt that that was worth fighting for."
  • "Pilots don't pack their parachutes when the engines are on fire, they have their parachutes ready to go. And so my advice to anyone out there who has a business start packing your parachute so that if something unexpected happens, you can grab it and head for the exit. Don't try to pack it when you're running toward the exit."
