I don't think it's a good idea to plan to sell a company.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If the company depends entirely on you - your creativity, ingenuity, inspiration, salesmanship or charisma - nobody will want to buy it. The risk and the dependency are too great.
I am not a sort of person who wants to run a company.
Don't ally your personal interests with the development of the company.
I don't think you should ever start a business and move in a direction where you can't see it becoming a business.
It's a very difficult business, and I'm very interested in the future of it after I'm gone, and I thought that if I can't produce a strong management team here myself, and I can find better management elsewhere, then I should sell it.
You know, a lot of people are just interested in, in building a company so they can make money and get out.
The big companies are like, It's so good but we don't know how to market it.
You can't run a business just by selling one thing.
Making a company fit to sell may be the only way to ensure you never need a buyer.
I don't think I'd enjoy running a public company. We haven't needed to go to the market to fund expansion.
