^redacted‌ I hardly hear or read about solo searchers selling to PE but I know its being done. For every 10 solo searchers I speak with, only one talks about selling to PE in the near future as part of their exit plan. I really like your perspective on building and holding, especially for the next decade as well. Mine is similarly aligned, and making sure that as we grow we are attractive to buyers. However, I am considering to do more research on whether the types of businesses I am seeking to buy are PE savvy. Looking forward to your success in the next upcoming weeks.

Thanks Luke for the ping. My 2 cents is to focus on building a solid business with strong financials, and the buyers, to the extent you want to be a seller, will come - PE or other.
