$10 million-dollar deal man and author John Rood talks exit and what came next!

John scaled the business to nearly $10 million in revenue, with impressive EBITDA margins of 20–40%, before selling to a private equity firm executing a roll-up in the test prep space.While the sale was a financial success, the emotional aftermath caught John off guard. Post-exit, he found himself unanchored and questioning what came next. Curious whether other founders shared the same experience, he began interviewing entrepreneurs who had also sold their companies. That research evolved into his book, Beyond the Exit.  John shares how he transformed a service-based business into a scalable product company—and what he’s learned from talking with 71 exited founders about what life is really like after the deal is done.Order John's book, Beyond the ExitIf you have any questions about business, please feel free to reach out to [email protected]
