He Sold His Company for Millions and It Nearly Broke Him | Wesley Mathews

Wes Mathews got his first job washing dishes at 12 years old. He built High Level Marketing from nothing into a company doing over $22 million in revenue. And then he sold it.Three years later, Wes started Stealth Consulting with his original partner again—same trust, just a lot more wisdom. This time, he knew exactly who he wanted to work with and wasn't chasing revenue just to chase it. And he says he’s honestly happier than he’s ever been.We talked about:→ Why selling a company can be one of the loneliest things an entrepreneur goes through→ How to actually plan for life after an exit (not just the financial side)→ The pricing mistakes young business owners make and how to fix them→ The one question every entrepreneur needs to answer before they startMost people only talk about the win—he talked about the emptiness after. That’s the part more founders need to hear. Thankful for Wes, for driving out in one-degree weather to share the parts of his story most people keep to themselves. The way he opened up about those post-sale years took real courage — and I know it’s going to help more people than he realize.Connect with WesWeb: https://stealthconsulting.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wesleymathews/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dillon-england-show--6370921/support.*Connect with Dillon*https://www.instagram.com/thedillonenglandshow/https://twitter.com/imdillonenglandhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5*Sponsor — Broadcast Brew (Low-Acid Coffee)*Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW”Thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership.https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blend*ABOUT THE DILLON ENGLAND SHOW*Authentic conversations with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle — direct, faith-forward, Detroit grit.Subscribe for full conversations and weekly clips.Share this with someone on your leadership team.Comment your biggest takeaway.
