About this listen
The first offer was three times too low — and Stacy Stahl almost walked away. Instead, she did something most founders never do, and it changed the entire deal.
In this episode, Carrie sits down with Stacy Stahl (founder of How He Asked — yes, the “Gossip Girl of proposals” — acquired by The Knot) to break down the part founders don’t post: the lowball, the power move, and the moment you realize your business is only worth what you’re willing to sell it for.
