Welcome back to Exit Stories and thanks for joining us for this episode!

On today’s episode, host Kevin Mosley is sitting down with Jonathan Crook, the former Founder of Blue Pencil Box, which was acquired by Fisher Phillips in 2024. Blue Pencil Box is the knowledge management platform for restrictive covenant law, founded after Jonathan's struggle to find up to date information in his own practice as a lawyer. Tune in to hear his story on how he independently bootstrapped and built Blue Pencil Box. 

Special thanks to our sponsor for the season, Robinson Bradshaw.
