Robert Hirsch is a modern-day business sage whose talents include taking other CEOs “down the rabbit hole” to a place where heart and head align to produce uncommon clarity, focus, and large-scale growth. He has been known to “bend time,” allowing the companies and leaders he works with to make quantum leaps, starting with simple but profound shifts in the way they think. Robert brings an unparalleled talent for both vision and execution – one of those rarest of individuals who can both see the view from 30,000 feet and guide his team to land the plane every time.
A serial entrepreneur since high school, Robert’s business adventures have included riding the first wave of the dot-com boom as a venture-backed CEO, a stint as director of internet marketing for Siemens AG, consolidating the adventure travel industry as founder of Adventure Central, and running South Fork Ventures with a portfolio of companies ranging from manufacturers, business brokerages and software. Robert’s current company is Exit Hero, a Colorado-based business brokerage focusing on freeing the entrepreneur and selling businesses for maximum value.
His unique ability to take a company to market and run the sales process, maximizes deal tension for the seller and has led to industry leading valuations and closing rates. This has made him a much sought-after business broker to high level, leading edge companies and original thinker/doers. He has helped hundreds of companies to achieve a successful result in his career.
Robert’s mission in life, to create positive change in the world by “helping the helpers,” is perfectly served through Exit Hero as the company helps entrepreneurs secure their family’s financial future. Robert raises his family outside of Aspen, Colorado and graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder, manga cum laude.
