I recently sat down with Evelyn Ashley, Managing Partner, and John Monahon, Partner, of Trusted Counsel, a corporate and intellectual property law firm in Atlanta. Evelyn and John produce In Process, a bi-weekly radio broadcast on Newstalk 1160 to educate listeners on many topics related to the daily operation of their business.
Evelyn and John were interested in speaking with me about PR and marketing considerations before selling a business. Understandably, business leaders focus primarily on the legal and financial aspects of prepping for a sale, but certainly PR, marketing and branding should have a seat at the table when a company is planning an exit.
In Segment 3 of this podcast, we spoke about the significance of brand reputation at the time of sale.
If you missed any previous segments, you can listen to Segment 1 here, and Segment 2 here.
Look for Segment 4 next week: In the Exit Game, Support the Brand Promise.
Enjoy!
