Podcast Overview

We talk about Surfing the Sigmoid Curve. Or in other words: how everything, and everyone will experience inception, growth, maturity, and finally decline. But how do businesses, products, or people continue to grow both personally and professionally? We interview founders, business owners, professionals, and growth-minded individuals who have found success. And they share how they made it happen. We have 1 rule. Don't. Be. Boring. Hosted by Chris Jones, CEO, and co-owner of the largest business brokerage firm in the US, and Matt Silasiri, VP of Business Development. https://www.tnma.com

Ep. 47 - Exiting a Medical Distribution Business in the Midwest - John Zak

Back in 2002 John Zak and his partners took the leap into starting North Star Surgical as a regional medical device distribution company. Over time the team reinvested and grew the capabilities by adding new product lines, sales reps, eventually broadening their footprint. After 20 years in the business, thoughts started to form about getting out of the business and transitioning into life 2.0. With the help of Dan Arcand, an Advisor of Sunbelt Business Advisors and True North M&A, John and his partners went to market, bringing in numerous buyers. Even with no intention in selling, the higher valuation in the company and interest from buyers made the decision much easier.

Ep. 45 - Selling a Tree Care Business: The Green Industry Playbook - Brittany Onken

For Brittany and Eric Onken, business ownership has been nothing short of an adventure. Starting and scaling right out of college cutting lawns, they quickly grew and established themselves as a trusted player in the industry. Not so soon after they sold off their contracts and transitioned into tree care; completely starting fresh and tackling a new and bigger beast. Brittany shares all about the trials, the tribulations, the successes, and most importantly what exiting her business was like. What does she wish every busy owner knew ahead of a sale? How can she now help you exit your business successfully?
