Acquire Wisely By Building Smart Deals
We recently sat down for a podcast interview to talk through what I’ve learned from over 60 transactions and $1.5B in capital allocated—what works, what surprises founders, and what can quietly kill a deal when you’re this close 🤏🏼 to the finish line.
We cover:
The real emotional cost of selling a business
What buyers look for—but rarely say out loud
Why founder-owned companies need a different kind of process
And how to protect your upside without overcomplicating your path to close
If you’re thinking about selling—or just want to be ready when the time comes—I think you’ll find it useful.
In this episode, Candor Advisors founder Kirk Michie shares what he’s learned from 30+ years advising founders and families on the art—and science—of selling a business.
