About Business Ownership: The Joy. The Pain. The
Product description Your startup is your heart and soul. What happens when you have to walk away? Hannah Paramore Breen started Paramore Digital in 2002 because "digital" was what she knew. The relationships she'd built over a lifetime and a career made her business possible. The lessons she learned from both her career and her family made it a success. But in 2016, everything changed--and now it was time to exit the business she'd built from the pixels up. Business Ownership: The Joy. The Pain. The Truth. is the story of Hannah's exit, and the lessons she learned as she handed her business over to new owners.

Review The book you are holding should be required reading for anyone who either wants to start a business or who already owns a business and wonders why problems only seem to multiply, especially ones that involve human beings. Adam Bryant, Managing Director, Merryck & Co. Former "Corner Office" Columnist for the New York Times We are used to the counsel of onlookers and analysts. Yet few have been in the trenches with the stresses of leadership upon them, the words of critics burning in their ears. Hannah Paramore has been at the forefront, has led well, and has seen success. Thank God she is now willing to teach us what she knows. We will lead better for it. Stephen Mansfield, Ph.D. New York Times Bestselling Author From the Author The question I've been asked most in the last three years is, "Why would you sell THAT business?" We were high-profile and successful by every measure, but I was miserable. Selling a business is hard, but deciding to sell the business is even harder. It is an emotional process caused by the painful journey of business ownership. I had a successful exit, but it could have been different if I'd done a few key things in the last five years that I owned it. This book explains my emotional journey and the key decisions I could have made that might have changed the outcome for me. About the Author Hannah Paramore Breen founded Paramore Digital in 2002 before most of the digital tools we use today were even an idea. She ran the company for fifteen years, exiting after a successful acquisition in 2016. Through the years Hannah navigated the world of business ownership and the highs and lows that inspire you to achieve and make you want to quit. Fast Company, Business Insider, The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, Success Magazine, Inc. and The New York Times have all profiled Hannah's candid, no-nonsense style and approach to leadership and the daily struggles that come with owning a high-growth digital agency. Hannah is now excited to share the things she learned as business owner in her books, her blog and at speaking engagements around the world. And she has a 12.3 handicap on the golf course. That's important to know.
