BU BÖLÜM HAKKINDA
Vincent Serpico spent 16 years building Founders Workshop, a product development company that created more than 300 software applications before he sold it after listing on Acquire.com.
By the time Vincent decided to sell, the business was hitting its highest numbers. Before listing, the team spent six to 12 months strengthening operations, automation, financials, and systems so the company could transition smoothly to a new owner.
In this episode, Vincent shares why he chose to sell after 16 years, how preparing for an exit changed his approach to operations, and what helped make Founders Workshop genuinely turnkey.
You'll hear:
- Why Vincent decided to sell while the business was hitting its highest numbers
- How “just-in-time” operations changed when the goal became a sale
- What the team prepared during the six to 12 months before listing
3 Lessons from Vincent's Exit:
- Prepare Before You List: Strong systems, automation, and clean financials take time to build.
- Reduce Founder Dependency: Buyers need a business they can operate without relying on one person.
- Build for the Handoff: A transferable business makes the transition easier for the next owner.
For founders thinking about selling, this episode shows what changes operationally when a business has to work for someone else.
