Fox Business covered the growing threat millions of American jobs face as Baby Boomer small business owners retire without succession plans, and American Operator is building the solution.
The piece features American Operator founder William Fry, who spoke to the stakes of the crisis, as well as a real example of the model in action with our acquisition of Greenway Painting in Jackson, Wyoming. After 12 years building the business, owners Erik and Kassie Hansen found their successor in Anthony Douglas, a former U.S. Air Force combat controller who became CEO and is on the path to majority ownership in partnership with American Operator.
