Software Industry Experience
I spent over 15 years in various corporate development roles in Silicon Valley early in my career. During this time, I held numerous positions in large software companies like Oracle, Siebel Systems, and Suse Linux.
Entrepreneurial Experience
In my late-30s, I transitioned to entrepreneurship. I transformed a five-person commercial printing agency into a thirty-five-person industry leader. We did this through an internally developed software application, a great staff, and contractual relationships with over 40 commercial printers across the country.
My Business Exit
When it came time to sell my company, it took me almost 24 months to get a deal done. I wasted hundreds of hours pursuing unqualified buyers and not being adequately prepared. I now use my experience to guide my clients through this complex process to get deals closed at strategic valuations.
Ideal Client Profile
My typical clients are business owners with $3m-$20m in revenue and 15-50 employees in the USA.
