How to Start Selling Your Business

Selling your business doesn’t start when a buyer shows up, it starts years earlier, often before you realize you’re “building toward an exit.” In this episode of The Founder Ride, Randy breaks down how to begin planning for the eventual sale of your business with clarity and intention, even if selling feels far off.

We explore the mindset shift founders must make, from running a business that depends on them to building one that can stand on its own. Randy also discuss common mistakes founders make when they wait too long to plan, and how early decisions around growth, profit, and structure can dramatically impact value down the road.

Whether selling is one year away or ten, this conversation will help you think differently about your business today, so when the time comes, you’re selling on your terms, not scrambling under pressure.
