The Exit Plan
A podcast for entrepreneurs who want to sell their business. Every episode we interview someone who has bought or sold a creative agency or production company. We delve into why sellers wanted to sell - and why buyers wanted to buy. We reveal how deals were structured, valuations were agreed and what lessons will never be forgotten.
