Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Bandwidth, hosts Georgette Lopez-Aguado, Larry Weidig, and Rick Seemann dive into one of the most emotional and complex decisions an ISP can face: selling the business. They unpack what really happens when operators decide to exit, whether through a competitor, a private equity firm, or a partial sale, and share lessons from their own experiences navigating the process.From the red flags to watch for during due diligence to the hardest part of breaking the news to your staff and customers, the trio explores how to balance financial opportunity with community impact. They also discuss why timing your exit matters more than you think, how to vet potential buyers, and what to do if you’re not quite ready to let go.Whether you’re preparing for a sale, fielding offers, or simply thinking about your long-term succession plan, this conversation gives a candid look at the realities of letting go of what you’ve built and doing it the right way.Connect with us: Bandwidth Podcast → https://www.linkedin.com/company/sonarsoftware/🔔 Love the podcast?
