The business was profitable within months -- thanks in large part to Mary Kay’s decision to give her sales reps commission for referring new salespeople. In 2009, she ended “The Oprah Winfrey Show” and launched The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). But in 1963, when a man she’d trained got a promotion instead of her, she quit.

There’s consideration of corporate and brand purpose beyond growth and profits to sustainability, ethical practice and improving society whilst maintaining consistency and emotional impact (especially the desire to belong and be part of a social group).

I have a distant family member who lost millions of dollars in the  Stanford Ponzi scheme back in 2009.   Exits are easier to come by and more profitable when you have a repeatable system in place.  Plenty of scams over the years have wiped out massive amounts of personal wealth. And the last point.
