By Cole Strandberg| Modern Tire Dealer Verified Many business owners never plan to sell. Their business is their passion, their identity and them livelihood. I get it. In my case, I always considered my family’s business to be like an older sibling. But what if I told you that running your business like you’re preparing to sell it — whether you ever do or not — can make it stronger, more profitable and more efficient? A business built to sell isn’t just attractive to buyers. It’s also more sustainable, scalable and enjoyable to run.
By Cole Strandberg| FOCUS Investment Banking@ Cole Strandberg: Looking forward to a great and important conversation on sustainability. Before we dive in, I read a little bit about your background and who you are at the top of the show, but would love to hear it in your own words. Eddie Hightower: Sure, yeah. Thanks Cole for the again, thanks for the opportunity today. So I’m Eddie Hightower. I actually lead the sustainability practice here at Caliber Collision, which also includes risk management. I’ve been with the company now almost 10 years.
