About John
John Rood is an exited founder and the author of "Beyond the Exit." He founded Next Step Test Prep, an educational services business in the test preparation niche, which he scaled from a services model to a software and content-based platform. After eight years of growth, he sold the company to a private equity firm in an eight-figure transaction. Following the sale and a two-year transition period, he wrote his book to explore the often-undiscussed challenges founders face post-exit. Today, John focuses on writing, speaking, and community involvement.
