People often ask me where Boston Made is headed. The honest answer is that our direction is clearer than any single product or date. I want to share the principles that guide where we are going, so that readers, customers and partners understand what to expect from us.
Read More
It is easier than ever to start a company and harder than ever to keep one going. Trends move fast, attention is short and the pressure to grow quickly is constant.
Read More
Acquisitions are among the most consequential decisions a company can make. Done well, they bring new capabilities, customers and talent in a single step.
Read More
Digital transformation is one of the most overused phrases in business, and one of the most misunderstood. It is not about buying software. It is about changing how a company works so that technology makes it faster, more reliable and closer to its customers.
Read More
A parent company exists to make the businesses it owns stronger than they would be on their own. That is the whole test. If a subsidiary would do just as well without its parent, the structure is adding cost without adding value.
Read More
Every company has an ethics program, whether it writes one down or not. The program is simply the set of expectations people actually follow when no one is watching and the right answer is inconvenient.
Read More
Transparency is easy to talk about and hard to practice. It asks leaders to share bad news as readily as good news, to explain decisions they could simply announce and to admit when they got something wrong.
Read More
An investor relations website is one of the clearest signals a company can send about how seriously it takes transparency. For public companies, a strong IR site is a core part of how they communicate with shareholders.
Read More
Over the years I have sat on both sides of the table — asking for support for my own ventures and helping other founders get ready to ask for theirs. The same lessons come up again and again.
Read More
Founders who dream about taking a company public usually picture one thing: the bell ringing on the day of an IPO. In reality, there is more than one road to the public markets, and each comes with its own costs, risks and obligations.
Read More
Ringing the opening bell is a powerful image, but the day a company goes public is the end of a very long road, not the beginning. Most of the work happens years earlier, quietly, in how the company keeps its books, governs itself and tells its story.
Read More
Trust is the real currency between a company and the people who back it. Investors, lenders and partners can forgive a bad quarter.
Read More
People sometimes ask why a holding company would run newsrooms, a reader app and a family of story-driven websites. My answer is simple: every company needs to tell its story, and the best way I know to do that well is to treat storytelling as a real business rather than a side project.
Read More
Every company carries risk. The ones that last are the ones that decide, on purpose, which risks they will take, which they will avoid and which they will hand to someone else.
Read More
No company grows alone. Every business I have built has depended on someone else’s skill, audience, infrastructure or trust. The question is never whether to work with partners.
Read More
Most of what a company is worth cannot be stacked on a shelf. It lives in names, ideas, code, designs, processes and relationships. That is intellectual property in the broad sense, and over a long enough horizon it is usually the part of a business that compounds the most.
Read More
Every company is, in a sense, a long chain of decisions and promises. Records are how you prove what was decided and what was promised.
Read More
The best time to prepare your company for investment is long before you need the money. Founders who wait until they are raising often discover gaps — in their records, their numbers or their story — that slow everything down at exactly the wrong moment.
Read More
A board of directors is the group of people responsible for overseeing a corporation on behalf of its shareholders. It does not run the business day to day; that is the job of management. Instead, the board sets direction, supervises leadership, protects the company’s long-term interests, and makes the most significant decisions. This article is
Read More
One of the main reasons people form a corporation or LLC is to separate business liabilities from personal assets. That separation is often called the “corporate veil.” When it holds, the owners of a company generally are not personally responsible for the company’s debts and obligations. When it fails, courts may “pierce the veil” and
Read More
Internal controls are the checks and routines that keep a business’s money, data, and decisions safe from error and misuse. They are not about distrust. They protect honest people from mistakes, protect the business from fraud, and give owners confidence that the numbers they see are real. This article is part of Boston Made’s February
Read More
For many modern companies, the most valuable things they own cannot be touched. Domain names, websites, apps, content libraries, trademarks, software, audiences, and data can represent a large share of enterprise value. Building a portfolio of digital assets means acquiring, developing, and managing those assets deliberately, so each one strengthens the whole. This article is

Every growing company faces a steady stream of possibilities: new brands to launch, partnerships to consider, markets to enter, assets to acquire. The hard part is not finding opportunities. It is choosing the right ones. This article is part of Boston Made’s February corporate governance and growth series. As a parent company focused on developing
Read More
Compliance can sound like something only large corporations with legal departments need to worry about. In reality, small businesses face many of the same basic obligations, often with fewer people to keep track of them. Corporate compliance simply means meeting the legal, regulatory, tax, and contractual requirements that apply to your business, and having a
Read More
In the early days of a business, decisions live in the founder’s head. That works when a company is small and everyone sits in the same room. As the company grows, adding people, customers, brands, money, and risk, informal decision making starts to break down. Governance policies are how a growing company keeps decisions consistent,
Read More
Business owners often use the words brand, DBA, subsidiary, and corporation as if they mean the same thing. They do not. Each describes something different: a market identity, a registered trade name, a controlled company, and a type of legal entity. This article is part of Boston Made’s February corporate governance and growth series. As
Read More
When one company owns several brands, the question is not just how to grow each one, but how to manage them together without losing control or clarity. Subsidiaries are one of the main tools parent companies use to do that. This article is part of Boston Made’s February corporate governance and growth series. As a
Read More
A holding company is one of the most common, and most misunderstood, structures in business. At its simplest, it is a company whose main purpose is to own other companies or assets rather than to sell products or services directly. This article is part of Boston Made’s February corporate governance and growth series. As a
