What makes you different or weird, that's your strength.
Meryl Streep
The ants are not choking on smog or stuck in traffic. The fungi arenât counting carbon credits or worrying about the Pacific Garbage Patch. All have grown and prospered for hundreds of millions of years, through all kinds of radical change with the same metabolic needs we have. We know it can be done.

Planning to Exit?
Itâs the most critical decision a business owner will make in their lifetime â and over my 40 years of helping firms Iâve seen owners taken advantage of time and time again â leaving tens of millions on the table. Youâre up against sophisticated buyers who have done hundreds of acquisitions â whereas this is often your first rodeo. And these buyers have a formula for ripping you off â and it works. Seeking help, owners find the big M&A firms, especially those specializing in your industry, are more beholden to the buyers than the sellers (they will tell you otherwise). They are not your friend in the process, just another transaction. Email me to get a white paper on what to avoid when exiting verne@scalingup.com.
