He turned down a $30 BILLION offer. Would you? Back in 2016, Evan Spiegel faced a dilemma. Google had offered to buy Snapchat (now Snap Inc.) for a staggering $30 billion. At the time, Snapchat was wildly popular but still battling competition and questions about its future. Spiegel shocked the tech world when he said no. (Turning down life-changing money seemed crazy.) But he had a vision. Spiegel believed Snapchat could redefine how people communicate and interact with technology. And he knew he needed to maintain control to see that vision through. A year later, Snap Inc. went public at a valuation of $24 billion. While the road hasn’t always been smooth, Snap has evolved into a global force with over 400 million active users and groundbreaking innovations in AR and digital storytelling. Today, Snap Inc. is valued at over $15 billion, and Spiegel’s leadership continues to drive its unique mission forward. The lesson? For founders, your company is more than a product. It’s the realisation of your vision. Selling for a quick payday might be tempting. But if you have unshakable belief in your startup’s potential, sticking to your path can yield far greater rewards. Spiegel’s story is an extreme example. But it shows the power of having conviction and courage in your decisions. As you weigh opportunities, ask yourself if they align with your vision. Not just the valuation. What would you have done in Spiegel’s shoes? Let me know below. P.S. Got value? Follow me for more inspiring stories like this.

M&A Isn’t Just About Numbers—It’s About People. Behind every deal, there’s a story. - A founder who poured decades of their life into building a business from scratch. - A team who turned vision into reality, navigating challenges and celebrating wins. - A buyer looking to grow, innovate, and take things to the next level. As an M&A broker, I’ve learned one thing: the numbers might start the conversation, but the people drive the outcome. The most successful deals happen when: - Sellers see their legacy respected. - Buyers find not just value but opportunity. - Teams feel empowered for the future. It’s not just about EBITDA or valuations—it’s about finding the perfect fit. I’ve had the privilege of facilitating deals where businesses didn’t just change hands; they thrived in new ways. That’s what makes this work so rewarding. Are you a business owner thinking about an exit? Or a buyer looking for your next big opportunity? Let’s talk about how we can align vision and value to create something incredible.
