Before you buy or sell a business, perhaps you've read "Buy Then Build." Today's podcast guest, Matt Crowder, talks about how that book set him further down the entrepreneurial path. Matt, a borrower I worked with, recently acquired Western Stairlifts, a business specializing in home mobility equipment. We explore his transition from a traditional career in the tech industry to full-time entrepreneurship. The guest shares the pivotal moments, challenges, and learnings from both their vending machine business and the acquisition of Western Stairlifts. From selling snowflakes to technology, from managing a vending machine route to buying a business, Matt provides valuable insight for fellow entrepreneurs. ______________________________________________________________________ If you have questions for Jared, visit JaredWJohnson.com DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this program are my own and/or those of my guests.
