How to Sell your Company
I never thought I would sell, but I got three offers in one week.  I told them all no.  But after thinking about it a while, I told them all yes.Thing is, Amazon was not one of the three.  And I always thought that Amazon would be the perfect daddy for my baby.So after the first three companies were looking at my books with NDAs and LOIs, I asked a connected friend to introduce me to someone at Amazon, and told him why.  I was surprised how quickly someone at Amazon got back to me, and they were a contender until the end.  (I chose a different company - one of those first three, after all.)It makes all the difference in the world to have multiple interested buyers.Any time you hit a snag in negotiations, you really have to be 100% sincerely ready to walk away.   Actually believe, to the core, that until the final signature and wire transfer goes through, the deal might not happen, and you're OK with that.
