12 Sep Built to Sell Radio: One Company, Two 8-Figure Exits
Ed Buckley started Peerfit, which allows companies to offer fitness classes as part of their employee benefits package. The company grew to more than 150 employees before receiving an acquisition offer for almost $100 million from a major fitness brand widely reported to be Peloton. Buckley retained some of the IP, which, in a strange twist, he was able to sell in another eight-figure exit months later. In this episode, you’ll learn how to:
- Start a business with friends without damaging your relationships.
- Avoid the biggest mistake entrepreneurs make when growing from 20 to 50 employees.
- Choose the most strategic investor for your business (even if their opinion of value is lower).
- Rekindle a deal that has fallen through.
- Develop a strong relationship with a potential acquirer.
- Improve a low-ball offer.
