The best time to sell is when you don’t need to, and when you are in peak growth mode. Not when your growth is plateauing and you feel the need to exit.

So if you feel growth will increase, I would put the pedal to the metal, and ramp up growth for a year or 2, then sell for the highest possible valuation.

Yep, I'm not planning to sell immediately. Just starting to do some research on what would be involved. Honestly I don't know that I'd even sell at all at this point, but it's useful to know one's options. Certainly will continue to pursue further growth!
