Introduction
Built to Sell is a compelling story of an entrepreneur's journey to create a valuable and sellable business. The story revolves around Alex Stapleton, a business owner who struggles with his advertising agency's dependency on him. With the guidance of his mentor Ted, Alex embarks on a transformational journey that turns his business into a valuable, sellable enterprise. Through Ted’s advice, Alex could transform his company from a worthless asset into a successful business worth $5 million.
This engaging narrative teaches entrepreneurs the crucial steps to building a business that can thrive without them, making it an attractive acquisition target.
Warrillow explores the various factors that can affect a company’s success and how to build a successful business without its owner. He also provides a step-by-step guide that will help readers follow their own path.
In 2012, both Inc. and Fortune chose Built to Sell as one of their top 10 picks for business owners.
