Hey HN, Justin here (the post's original author). Didn't expect this to get posted again. I'm happy to answer any questions here about selling your company.

I recently started a new company, Atrium, aiming to make legal services (such as M&A) for startups and tech companies easier as well.

Isn't getting a term sheet from a VC orthogonal (and potentially relationship damaging) while you are actively looking for an acquisition?
No. I think you can credibly claim after the fact that you wanted to understand what all the options were. Which is probably true for most founders.
Is it cool if I ask a question not related to selling your company? If so, if you could go back to the justin tv days, what would you do differently?
Hard to say because so many things we did wrong were life/business lessons that we probably had to do wrong for me to be sitting here telling you I'd do them differently.

Are you asking what I would do differently if I started a new company today?

Why don't you snap anymore? I need my morning dose of Fitness is tha first step to greatness
I started a new company (Atrium) and that occupies all my spare mental energy. When I was investing I felt like I had to fill my day up with something, hence snapping all the time.

I do occasionally post Q&As on Instagram stories now: @justinkan
