Most entrepreneurs say they want to exit someday.

But when that day finally comes, very few walk away with what they hoped for.

Alastair Broom did!

He bootstrapped a business out of his own garage, scaled it over 15 years, and sold it for 5x profit with 95% of the cash paid upfront.

And he didn’t start until he was 58 years old.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How he turned a messy garage into a premium brand
• The delegation strategy that freed him up and scaled sales
• How COVID increased his margins and helped him grow
• How he managed to double his profit margins
• The emotional rollercoaster of letting go (and how he handled it)
