Thanks @redacted‌ Hi everyone. I'm Ryan Bowling in the Overland Park area. I founded, scaled, and sold an insurance technology business in 2022 and am currently in the final stages of wrapping up that sale. Over the last year I've become increasingly interested in entrepreneurship through acquisition and have begun evaluating opportunities in the lower middle market. I'm still early in my search, but I'm actively building relationships with searchers, investors, brokers, lenders, and business owners throughout Kansas and the Midwest. Looking forward to learning from the group and connecting with others in the ETA community.

Thanks @redacted‌. Hi everyone, my name is Connor Boyle. I’m based in north Olathe with my wife and our two daughters. I’ve spent the last 13 years in software sales, primarily in proptech and multifamily, focused on enterprise sales, relationship building, and helping grow companies through new business development. Most of my background has been centered around building new relationships from scratch, leading people, and helping drive gtm and marketing strategy. My wife and I have recently made the decision to begin actively searching for our first business acquisition. I’m excited to learn from others in the search community, make local connections, and hopefully build relationships with people who have gone through the process themselves. Really great to see such a strong KC presence here. Looking forward to connecting with everyone.
