Most of the people in the service and repair business who follow what is going on in the business are aware I sold my company. Now it’s owned by a larger company, part of the consolidation effort. Since I get lots of questions from business owners all over the country, I thought I would share my thoughts on what it’s like to sell, what is different — and probably more important to you — what I would have done differently knowing what I know now.
First of all, let me thank all the people in the business who have supported me in my choice to sell. It’s gratifying to know there are many people out there who are concerned enough to pass on some kind words and share my success. It makes me feel good about the people in this business, its future and their future.
