September 24th, 2021 | 48 mins 26 secs
Today on Podcasting Stories, we're talking with Chris Anderson of Be Destined, an M&A advisory and strategic consulting firm based in San Francisco that Chris founded more than a decade ago.
Be Destined is different from a typical M&A firm because they view themselves more as a guide, helping business owners achieve their destiny through selling, transferring, or growing the business.
In this episode, we learn more about the firm and some great client case-studies that really highlight their unique approach. Chris is interested in how a podcast could amplify the message and brand of the firm, and we had a great conversation brainstorming some different ways in which a podcast would be beneficial to the firm and the people they can best help.
