Pivoting A 3rd Generation Business Into A Private Equity "Platform" | Derek Gaskins

E39: Today our guest is Derek Gaskins, a good friend and founder of Retail Bloom (now Blue Wheel Media), a full service e-commerce and digital marketing company, which Derek created inside the walls of his family's third generation business, Aleva Stores.  Derek grew this business quickly and then separated it from his family's business to sell it to a private equity firm in a very creative and lucrative transaction.

Derek is an e-commerce and digital marketing visionary and in today's discussion shares his advice on how to value a business inside a parent company, when to sell your business, and how to structure a transaction to really bet on the future.
