I say this because a non-functional (or worse, a toxic) relationship between the incoming and outgoing owners has the potential to damage a company more than customers leaving, employees quitting, or competitors fear-mongering ever could. To help us better understand the perspective of a selling Founder, I was joined this week by three founders, all of whom chose to sell their companies to a Search Fund within the past few years. Joining me today is Alicia Browner (Founder of Prelude [https://preludeedc.com/]), David Marshall (Founder of Performio [https://www.performio.co/]), and Robert Day (Founder of Integrity Advocate [https://www.integrityadvocate.com/]).

He sold that business to a Private Equity firm, then stayed on with the business to help them acquire 7 tuck-ins, growing the company by 6x and producing a 50% IRR. He has since started a coaching practice, and now works with SMB CEOs across North America. His story is the subject of a Harvard Business School case study, where he has also taught several courses and seminars. Our discussion today covers how PE buyers are likely to evaluate your business, including internal systems, capital allocation, management team quality, pricing, and countless other variables.

Today, I attempt to shine a light on the role that spouses play in the entrepreneurial journey from the perspective of both the spouse and the entrepreneur. To help me do this, I’m joined by Dr. Jennifer Musselman, a globally-recognized Marriage and Family Therapist and Executive Coach for high-performing executives and entrepreneurs. Dr. Musselman’s clinical work focuses on the interplay of work, life, self-identity and marriage, including the common stressors that impact performance and relationship satisfaction for entrepreneurs and other business leaders.
