Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How Purpose and Persistence Built Dylan Bassett's Consulting Firm
Q: What role did a niche play in your early success, and how did you structure outreach around it?
Narrowing focus to nonprofit CRM optimization and data cleanliness made messaging clearer and more compelling, turning conversations into qualified opportunities rather than broad, generic pitches.
How Purpose and Persistence Built Dylan Bassett's Consulting Firm
Q: What made you leave the corporate world to start your own consulting business?
A values-driven impulse and a desire to have control over the work I do, plus a realization that the corporate model didn't align with my long-term goals. This led to taking the leap and pursuing independent client work with a focus on impact in the nonprofit sector.
Selling Your Consulting Firm: What Buyers Want with David Mann
Q: What are the main things you focus on in the first 90-180 days after an acquisition?
Mandate EOS to align planning, establish a clear three-year/one-year/90-day plan, implement a repeatable sales process, and spend time understanding and shaping the culture of the team.
Selling Your Consulting Firm: What Buyers Want with David Mann
Q: How do you view the importance of recurring revenue versus project-based work?
Recurring revenue is desirable, but not always present in professional services; the key is to assess whether there is a trend of recurring revenue or a long-standing client relationship that provides stability.
Selling Your Consulting Firm: What Buyers Want with David Mann
Q: So what revenue level does a professional services firm need to hit before acquirers will pay attention?
Typically around $10 million in revenue, with a target range up to $100 million to have meaningful scale and infrastructure, though smaller firms can still be of interest under the right conditions.
