18 Aug Acquiring Minds: Buying and Building a Xerox Dealer to $30M
Entrepreneur Jeff Horn bought and grew a Xerox sales & service business called Benchmark Business Solutions. He was 35 and doing very well for himself at his job, but wanted to lead his own business. Despite having a busy family life with 3 boys, and a valuable amount of equity with his then-employer that he’d have to walk away from, Jeff took the leap. When he bought Benchmark in 2012 it was doing about $5m in revenue. When he sold it five years later, it was doing over $30m in revenue — and growing. The exit was of course life changing for Jeff, who today works as founder and general partner in the first institutional capital provider in his native Lubbock, Texas. Here he is, Jeff Horn, former owner of Benchmark Business Solutions.
