What Happened After Brent Weaver Sold UGURUS? The Truth About Life Post-Exit | Ep #805
What really happens after you sell your agency? Brent Weaver, founder of UGURUS, knows firsthand — and it wasn’t the beach-and-cocktails story most agency owners imagine. In this second half of our conversation, Brent opens up about what really happens after you sell a business, why his team stuck around (when they had every reason to bolt), navigating the shift from entrepreneur to executive within a corporate machine. He also lays down a fresh perspective on where agencies are headed in the AI era — and why human advantage is still your biggest asset.
If you missed Part One, go back — it sets the emotional stage. This one dives into the raw aftermath.
