SUMMARY
In this video interview, Jon Stoddard talks with Mike Finger, an entrepreneur who has been involved in four successful business exits and now runs a company called Exit Oasis. Mike shares his journey, starting with a startup he and his wife founded in the mid-90s, providing back-office and support services to schools, nonprofits, and associations. He grew the business to 50 employees over a decade but eventually felt burnt out and decided to sell. However, when he approached brokers, they turned him down due to various issues in the business.
Over the next five years, Mike educated himself about what makes a business attractive to potential buyers. He shifted his perspective and made the necessary changes to transform his business into a sellable entity. Eventually, after a year of working with a broker, he successfully sold the business. The experience was a significant turning point in his life, leading him to further explore the world of acquisitions and exits. Mike continued his entrepreneurial journey, becoming a broker, running an incubator, and buying and selling other businesses, gaining valuable insights along the way.
