I’m taking over the family business. I’ll be a third generation owner. I will purchase it through contract for deed.
My father told me the number one thing he wanted to do was run the business better than my grandfather. I feel the same way, and sometimes I’m not quite sure how to vent my frustrations to my father on what he could do better.
He’s a terrific businessman who had brought our family comfort. Sometimes I think he has some blind spots.
How do I approach these things without being insulting?
Company I used to work for the kids did not want to take over because of their father. They waited until he completely got out before taking over. By then he had killed revenues in one of his companies by over half.
