This is a special episode as it’s the last episode of Season 1 and so we’ve put together a compilation of the greatest hits covering some of the key ideas, insights, and themes that have emerged from the 15 conversations I’ve had so far.
In this episode, you’ll find the best comments, quotes and thoughts from the world-class entrepreneurs and experts I’ve spoken with over the last 6 months.
The subtitle of the podcast is "Inspired Conversations" and obviously, I'm biased, but as I’ve reflected on the series of interviews, I do think we’ve delivered on that claim.
I’ve spoken with successful founders, some of who’ve had one sale and exit. And others who’ve had multiple exits.
My conversations have taken me across the UK, Ireland and the United States.
I’ve spoken with men, I've spoken with women.
I've spoken with entrepreneurs who started their businesses when they were in their teens and those who launched their first company in their 50s.
Across the episodes, there is a combined exit sale value well in excess of £1 billion.
I’ve also spoken with some of the top experts who provide advice to the founders - a leader in M&A and corporate finance, a specialist accountant and a veteran wealth manager who’s been advising business owners for over three decades.
So what we have here is an Entrepreneur’s Exit Planning Playbook - 15 hours of detailed conversations revealing the lessons learned and the words of wisdom of those who have walked the walk and, during our discussions, have certainly talked the talk.
You’ll learn about:

• Do you build a company with a sale and exit in mind from day one - or do you just build a company and see what happens?
• The importance of ensuring you’re on the same page as your co-founders.
• Don’t waste time on unimportant things.
• The vital importance of knowing your Magic Number.
• Entrepreneurship is not for the faint-hearted - be prepared for sacrifice and hard work.
• Do your homework on your acquirer.
• Hire a professional who can help you secure the best deal.
• Network like crazy.
• Life after your business sale/exit.
