This week on The Lazy CEO Podcast, Jane is back with Linda Hammond, co-founder of Quay Australia and founder of OTRA Eyewear, for part two of their conversation. If you haven't listened to PART 1 yet, start there - it's a MUST LISTEN.

In this episode, they get into the chapters most founders never talk about. Linda opens up about what it actually felt like to sell a nine-figure business to private equity, why the exit wasn't the finish line she expected, and how she's channelling everything she learned at Quay into building OTRA Eyewear.

In this episode, she dives into:

  • The truth about selling a nine-figure business to private equity, and why it's more complicated than it looks from the outside.
  • How the industry has shifted since 1999, and how she's approaching marketing and team building differently with OTRA.
  • What it's really like to build a business with your partner.
