>you're creating a company that should be valued (and eventually sell) for 7-15X Earnings

Why should an exit be the primary goal? There is nothing wrong with starting a business with the intent of continuing to run and own that business. This should be normal.



For some I suspect that it's not the primary goal, but when some investors pull up with an offer in that range it seems irrational not to take it.
