My Strategic Advisory Board members wanted to learn from a speaker about selling or transitioning their businesses. I have known Kevin and his capabilities for more than a few years and asked him if he would be interested in speaking to my peer groups. He agreed and a couple of things happened during his talk. First, he provided validation to those that had sold and/or acquired companies in their careers. Second, he provided an education not just of his track record but what he recommended to his clients as they went through the A to Z process of selling or buying.
As I wrapped the meeting I asked each person what they got out of the meeting, sort of a confirmation that the time they spent was worthwhile. Each mentioned Kevin and some aspect of his presentation that resonated with him. My advice is that if you want a speaker on this subject, don't hesitate to connect with Kevin. The audience will be engaged and he will be ranked in the top tier of speakers your audience has enjoyed and learned from.
Whether you're selling this year or five years out, start with an honest, confidential conversation. No obligation.
