One of the most common questions I hear from business owners as they consider selling their business is, “What will happen to my employees?” or “How do I take care of my staff?” Small business owners in particular have a special loyalty with their staff and management, and that weighs heavily on an owner when it’s time to sell. Here at Viking, we have closed sales on more than 700 businesses over the past 25 years, the vast majority of which (96%) are still in business today.

But while the Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA ) chieftain’s $54.20 per share bid for Twitter (NYSE: TWTR ) continues to resonate, let’s pause to consider earlier attempts at hostile takeovers by well-respected and well-financed entities and individuals that — to ransack some Musk-worthy clichés — took off like a rocket ship but eventually vanished like a wisp of blunt smoke.
