When And How To Sell Your Company

JIM MILBERY AND DEVIN MATHEWS
About this episode

Selling a company isn't just about price - it's about timing, preparation and process. In this episode, Devin sits down with Ryan Milligan to break down how to sell a company - from timing the exit to running a competitive process and getting a deal across the finish line. They walk through the full private equity playbook including when to sell, whether or not to hire a banker and how deals move from early conversations to signed LOIs and closing.

If you've ever wondered how exits happen behind the scenes, this episode illustrates how it really goes down.
