Exitwise Weekly M&A Newsletter

In this week’s edition of the Exitwise M&A Newsletter:

• CASHING OUT: ⚽ Ryan Reynolds is not the only big name who's been bitten by the soccer (and now racing) bug... Serial entrepreneur Mac Lackey recently partnered to purchase Algeciras Club de Fútbol, a team in the Spanish Segunda División B. Listen to Episode 41 of the Cashing Out podcast to hear his entrepreneurial story, and what eventually led him to a dream purchase in the south of Spain.

• EXITWISE SPOTLIGHT: Yesterday, (Thursday, June 29, 2023), Exitwise hosted our very first Referral ("Scout") Program Roundtable. We hosted nearly 30 people from all over the globe and walks of life - former colleagues and friends, M&A industry professionals, C-level executives with billion-dollar exits under their belts, an MBA student studying entrepreneurship, and a leader from a large multi-national bank. Let us know if you’re interested in attending a future event, or hear more about our referral program.

CASHING OUT PODCAST | E41 | MAC LACKEY

Join Todd Sullivan and Mac Lackey, a serial entrepreneur who's built and sold six businesses with multiple eight figure exits to NBC Sports and News Corp, just to name a few.

Mac has been featured on CNN, The Wall Street Journal, Fast Company, USAToday and The New York Times, and now spends his time working with business owners through his extraordinary program called ExitDNA, which helps grow businesses from tens of millions to hundreds of millions of dollars so they can be sold for maximum value. Mac and I not only talk about his insights to business growth and maximizing exits, but we also have some fun learning how he went from playing pro soccer out of college to buying a professional soccer team after selling his last business.

I hope you enjoyed the conversation with Mac Lackey.
