Maximizing Exits and Preserving Legacies with Kevon Saber
Design Your Legacy - Life Lessons - A podcast by Angelina Carleton

Categories:
What if the sale of your business could be more than a transaction — what if it could be a transformation for your legacy planning? And how do you elevate human flourishing so as to protect the legacies of all involved? In this podcast episode, Angelina Carleton speaks with Kevon Saber, a values-based entrepreneur and founder of Legacy Outcomes, an elite M&A firm helping sellers transition their companies in ways that maximize their exit as well as preserve their legacy for all involved. From his days leading GoCheck Kids, a vision-screening platform for children, as children face a number of obstacles in fulfilling their potential, Kevon reveals why legacy can’t be measured in numbers alone. We explore how founders can architect outcomes, rather than react to offers — as great outcomes comes from great options. If you’re building a business worth passing on — or preparing for your next chapter — this episode is for you! We cover:✔️ The emotional and strategic layers of selling a business✔️ Why standard M&A firms miss what matters most✔️ Real-life lessons from scaling and exiting eight-figure companies✔️ Redefining success as legacy, not just liquidity-Kevon Saber is a founding partner of Legacy Outcomes. After selling two companies, one to a Fortune 100 and one to private equity, Kevon realized that founders were being underserved by a system built for buyers. He launched Legacy Outcomes to change the game for entrepreneurs like himself. Today, he’s devoted to helping other founders protect and maximize their legacy when selling.Before Legacy Outcomes, Kevon re-started GoCheck Kids as CEO to address vision impairment, the most common undiagnosed reason children struggle in school. Under his leadership, GoCheck became the vision screening platform of choice for 20,000 healthcare providers in all 50 states and grew its valuation by over 100x. The product won top honors at both HIMSS Connected Health and SXSW, with investors including InterWest Partners (~100 IPOs), Sovereign’s Capital, and Marc Benioff.Kevon also co-founded GenPlay Games, a mobile games developer that generated over $70 million in sales, collaborating with top athletes like Maria Sharapova and Tracy McGrady, and classic brands like PAC-MAN, Galaga, and Qbert. His other venture, Fig.com, helped over 50,000 users build healthier habits. Named to Silicon Valley’s 40 under 40, Kevon has been featured in Bloomberg Businessweek, Entrepreneur, Modern Health, Inc., Mashable, and LifeHacker, and has contributed to Forbes, Fast Company, and VentureBeat.
