Rounding Third and Heading for Home with Jay Myers

The Society of Entrepreneurs

The Crescent Club

Tech entrepreneur, business author, and speaker Jay B. Myers has published his
newest book, Rounding Third and Heading for Home: The Emotional Journey of Selling My Business and the Lessons
Learned Along the Way, available in print on June 15, 2021.

Myers founded Interactive Solutions Inc. (ISI), which was sold to AVI-SPL in 2018. As CEO for 22 years, Myers innovated and energized the video conferencing, distance learning, telemedicine, and audio-visual support fields, building ISI into a $25-million company. INC magazine named the company to its list of fastest-growing private companies in the US on seven occasions in eleven years.

In Rounding Third and Heading for Home, Myers explores the intricacies of knowing if your business is ready to sell and the journey of making sound business and emotional decisions to determine when the time is right.
“What I realized as I was writing was that the journey of selling my business was as much of an emotional journey as it was an important business process,” said Myers. “Selling to an outsider is a pragmatic transaction, but the personal feelings I had selling something I had put my heart and soul into was an unexpected process that I really had to navigate.”

His newest book is the third in his collection on small business and entrepreneur experiences, following Hitting the
Curveballs: How Crisis Can Strengthen and Grow Your Business (2014)
