Sell my IT company? – Have you thought about this question?
If you’re an owner of an I.T. (Information Technology) company, you’ve probably had that thought before. How do I know? I’ve been there. I have spent over 15 years in the I.T. industry and that thought ran through my head plenty of times. It’s not a bad thing. Sometimes business owners go through life changes and business ownership is no longer a fit for them. Sometimes they have put years into the business and now they want to get an early start on retirement. Anyway you look at it, it’s not giving up… it’s moving on. Again, I can say this from experience because I too sold my IT services company. The main question I had was “How do I sell my IT company?”
Answering the question, “How do I sell my IT company?”…
The answer for me was just plain ole dumb luck. I stumbled upon an opportunity to sell my IT company. Up to that point, I really hadn’t seen any simple, easy, inexpensive, resource to help me sell my company. That’s where I’m here to help. I want to make it easy for others that are at that point and are finding it just as difficult as I did. I have been blessed this past year with some amazing introductions and business associates. These connections have made it possible for me to make this offer to you:
Looking to sell your IT company? Contact me.
If you are the owner of an IT Services Company (Managed Services or Break/Fix is a significant percentage of your revenue), then I would be open to looking at purchasing your company. All you have to do is contact me by email, phone or social media and after a short conversation we can get started on the process. We can sign an NDA, I will have our people review the company and then we’ll make an offer. It’s that simple. If you want out, you have an out… without just walking out empty handed while leaving all your customers in the breeze. As I may be interested or willing to help with a transaction anywhere in the nation, I am personally interested in IT companies in the state of Texas, specifically Houston.
The “Sell My IT Company” statements…
I WANT to sell my IT company; I WISH I could sell my IT company; I NEED to sell my IT company or I PRAY I can sell my IT company. Regardless which one of these is you… let me help. I want to take what you’ve poured yourself into and carry on. Your customers will be given the same great service that you always gave them. Contact me and let me help. Now you don’t need to wonder or ask… “How do I sell my IT company?”
First off, I have to say that the 11:11 phenomenon is one that I experience on a regular basis and I have to blame Leo Corley for that. Once he shared with me that he saw 11:11 all around him… I couldn’t stop seeing them. Now, as 11:11:11 on 11/11/11 approaches, I felt I had to do a little tribute and put a countdown timer on my blog for us. Here’s to you Leo!
Well, this week was my oldest daughter’s first day of “Big School,” as she likes to call it. She is a brand new Kindergartner. It was kind of surreal because we went about our normal routine… getting ready for school, etc. The only exception is that instead of going to the day care, we went down the street to the bus stop. I guess this is why we didn’t have any tears or anything; we have been doing the “school thing” for a while now. Maybe if this was the first time she was going anywhere, then we might have been a little weepy. I’m very proud of her… and of Mommy… for being such big girls. :)
A friend of ours had her birthday just the other day and we were invited to partake in a scavenger hunt. Kim Lloyd’s husband, Chris, divided up the people into different “teams” and were were supposed to follow all the directions that were in time released envelopes. It was very well put together and a lot of fun. Thanks Chris Lloyd, for all your hard work in putting on a fun event for your wife!
After we were all done with the scavenger hunt, I was going through all the pictures and video and as it made me laugh out loud (LOL), I felt I needed to share our fun-filled time with everyone else. You can see in the video, all the silly things that we had to do. We didn’t win at the party, but later we found out that we should have… due to the winning team not following all the directions! At least we know the truth! ;)
Today in church, we had a great lesson from our Pastor, David Fleming. In our church, we talk about the process that we should go through as a Christian… “Know, Grow & Go!” You can “Know” God, but that isn’t enough. In fact, in the Bible it states that “even the demons ‘knew’ who Jesus Christ was”… but that didn’t get them anywhere, did it? Today, he focused on the “Grow” part of that. Max Lucado can be quoted as saying, ”God loves you just the way you are, but He refuses to leave you that way. He wants you to be just like Jesus. ” This is the “Grow” part of the equation. What does it take to “Grow?” Watch this video and I’m sure that it will convict you. I was glad I was in church to hear this message!
I was speaking in front of a group of business professionals recently and I shared with them the importance of watching what we say. I was sharing how, so often, I will be at a networking event and hear people gossip about one another. This is a very bad practice to be involved in. The reason why is that you never know who might be right over your shoulder. That person listening might be the one you are talking about or they might be friends with the person you are talking about. Aside from those reasons, everyone that’s around you while you’re talking bad about someone else, is going to also think less of you. Since we talk about trying to increase “Know, Like & Trust” with others… we should stay away from gossiping or talking ill of other people.
If you’re Bible reading, God fearing individual like myself, you’ll appreciate this. When I was speaking to this group, I mentioned that there was some scripture that I came across recently that fit perfectly. Ecclesiastes 10:20 is the verse that I shared with them. After I shared this verse with them, a very nice lady came up to me and said that it reminded her of this video of the military birds that will be used for surveillance. I thought that it was too cool to not share.
Today my in-laws came over to celebrate the 4th of July with us. Besides the two Callaham Seniors, we also had my wife (Ann) and my two little girls (Lindsey & Ashlyn). The girls had been looking forward to the parade all week and we even decorated their red wagon a few days earlier. I say we, but really it was Ann, Mimi (Grandma From) and the girls. I just watched and managed the project *smile*.
As the parade came by our house, we pulled out the wagon and got ready to get in line. As you can see in the video, the girls didn’t like the loud sirens. We got in line and went on a walk around the neighborhood, ending up at the clubhouse. It was HOT, but at least there was a little breeze.
We are very thankful for Klein Fire Department for bringing out the fire trucks and to those at Villages of Northpointe that helped put on a great event. More importantly, we are thankful for this “One Nation, Under God” that we live in. Thanks to all the troops that keep it this way and provide us with the peace that allows us to have days like this.
Leo Corley and myself have a very special person that offices with us. His name is Matthew Jasso. Not only is he our office manager, but he’s also a friend. He does an incredible job at helping each of our agents get their merchants up and running in a timely manner and he also helps provide support to our existing customers. He has become a great asset to our company. We thank you, Matthew Jasso!
In addition to being a great office manager, he has also studied & trained in multiple forms of martial arts. He took that knowledge and his passion for film and has coreographed, acted in, directed and produced multiple films. Due to his Ninja-like background and hobby, he has come to be known as…. THE OFFICE NINJA!
Today, my family and I headed out to the Champions area of Northwest Houston to see the St. Patrick’s Day Parade. My Father, Stanley From, was riding along on one of the floats. Since he was helping get the “Crazy Frogs” float ready, we decided to hang out in the “waiting area” and check things out. The girls got to get up in the float and some really nice ladies even gave them a few beads. There was some good music playing and everyone was having a great time… and the parade hadn’t even begun yet.
We left the parking lot (the setup area) and headed over to the corner of Champions Forest Dr. and FM1960 to pick out our spot. We found a nice grassy area that my wife and I and the two girls were able to hang out at, until the parade started. We waited… and waited… and waited some more. It seemed like forever (especially with two tired, impatient, little girls) but the Parade finally got under way.
We got to see the Grand Marshall (Rick Trevino), some Clydesdale horses (with all the beer vehicles), Tomball’s firetruck, Cypress Creek’s firetruck, Miss Houston Rodeo and the float that we were waiting for… “The Crazy Frogs” Float! The girls had fun seeing their “Poppy” riding on the float and he even threw them some beads. We would have loved to stay for the entire parade, but when the frogs went by, our time came to a quick close.
I was very impressed with the turn out and want to thank everyone from Northwest Houston, Tomball, Spring, Cypress and especially all of the residents and businesses located in the Champions area. If you missed it this year, don’t miss it next year!

Over the past few weeks, I have been leading our church group through a mini-series on marriage. It has been exciting to share what God has to say about marriage, why he has given it to us and what the real purpose of our mate is. Now, I know that some of you are worried that I’m going to launch into some elaborate discussion on marriage… but I’m not. My point is, that right about the time that I started teaching on marriage, we also had a special guest speaker come visit the church. This gentleman was Dr. Emerson Eggerichs, who is also a well known author of the book, “Love & Respect.” I remember thinking to myself how comical it was that this great speaker, with a great message on marriage, just happened to have this powerful lesson, as we started our series. I enjoyed his presentation so much that I am making it available for all of you married folks out there.
I challenge each and every one of you that are married… watch the video and reflect on where you are in your marriage. It will probably be the best 30 minutes that you have spent in the past couple of years… at least. Enjoy… I know I did.
