Top 3 Value Bombs

1. Every successful business and every successful founder has figured out, whether through impulses or versions of scaling, how to make their business more successful. Just because your business is successful, doesn't mean it's valuable.

2. A lot of times, what the sellers really want is to do something else, be that retirement, or investment in another business, or to come to the office less often, or not have the responsibility of managing people anymore.

3. When you're a successful entrepreneur, chances are, you have ignored a lot of well-meaning, but poor advise. And, your impulses, which may or may not scale, have caused a lot of your success.
