Exiting Mainstreet: Michael Lynch on How to Sell a Smaller Business

In this week’s episode of Built to Sell Radio, John Warrillow interviews Michael Lynch, the creator of TinyPilot, a hardware device that allows users to remotely control their computers without installing any software.  

Like most small companies, TinyPilot was a Main Street business with around $1 million in revenue and roughly $250,000 in profit, so Michael’s story is a revealing snapshot of a typical exit for the majority of small businesses. In this episode, you’ll discover how to: 

  • Sell a Main Street business. 
  • Handle a low-ball offer. 
  • Escape the feeling of being trapped inside your business. 
  • Distinguish between selling your shares vs. your assets. 
  • Avoid legal snafus during diligence.
