On this week’s episode of M&A Masters, we’re joined by special guest, Sean Alford, Senior Vice President of Corporate Development at J2 Global, an internet information and services company that includes IGN, Mashable, Humble Bundle, and more across digital media and cloud services segments.
Sean says, “It's pretty systematized when you handle the volume of transactions that we handle, you figure out what works and what doesn't work. And through the course of the 180 plus transactions that we've done, we've figured out the playbook that works. And there are different playbooks that work for different situations. We've got these different playbooks that we're able to slot into different scenarios, and it helps to have had the reps and to have made mistakes and learn from them and improve the process as a result.”
