congratulations on running a successful small business. It’s much like running amazon except you dont have anybody doing all the things that successful businesses require. I ran a small business (30 employees in 4 different states) for 38 years and sold it when I was diagnosed with Cancer. the surgery went well and the company I sold to decided to put me on the board and put me in M & A so now I get to contact other people in my business and see if they want to sell. I have done that successfully 11 times in the past 13 years. So there is a life after you sell, and it may be something you never even thought of..
congratulations and good luck going forward JJ Gonzalez
