#052 Built to Sell with John Denton

Tracy Fryer Season 1 Episode 52

In this episode, I had an incredible chat with the legendary John Denton, whose rich career has taken him across the globe. From his fearless mindset to his insights on building a sellable business, John shared wisdom drawn from years of experience in sales, management, and business brokering.

We dove into the essentials of preparing your business for sale, tackling the challenges of running and selling simultaneously, and why it’s crucial to adopt a “no fear” approach to life and opportunities. Our conversation touched on goal-setting, dream-chasing, and how thinking differently can open up extraordinary possibilities.

As a young man, John’s pursuit of beaches, palm trees, and even babes in bikinis opened up a world of opportunities, shaping his vivid perspective on living life boldly and with intention. Whether you’re planning your big exit or simply dreaming of your bucket list, this episode is packed with inspiration and actionable advice for entrepreneurs ready to embrace their next chapter.

Grab your notepad and tune in—this is an episode you don’t want to miss!

John Denton loves helping business owners regain their passion for business while having a goal of turning their business into a valuable and saleable asset. Every business owner exits their business at some point and it should be when they want to, at the best possible price, and quickly and easily. A business should be 'ready for sale' all the time. After a successful career in sales and management in Europe and Australia in the information technology corporate world, John started a leadership and management training business which became an RTO. After selling that business, John operated for over 12 years as a business broker selling a variety of SME businesses. John now coaches business owners on turning their businesses into valuable and saleable assets.
