Buying a Business.
The Path Few Talk About.
What if the best way to become an entrepreneur is to buy a business instead of starting one?
In this episode of Ethical Exits, Hannah sits down with Kari Doherty to unpack the path most people are never taught.
Most businesses don’t sell. They close. Not because they lack value. Because the system is not built for transition, and most owners are not prepared for it.
6 million businesses will need new owners over the next decade. Most will not find one.
This is a conversation about who gets access to ownership, and what it will take to change that.
