Sharon Lee Thony brings SLTC full circle, reclaiming ownership of the agency she built and redefining what a successful exit can look like.
Sharon Lee Thony is a serial entrepreneur, marketing executive, and Founding Advisor to The Whisper Group.
She built SLT Consulting (SLTC) from the ground up, sold the agency to publicly traded Fiverr, and later reacquired SLTC to lead it independently once again. Having experienced both sides of a transaction, Sharon brings a rare perspective on what it means to build, sell, integrate, and ultimately redefine success after an exit. She holds an MBA from The Wharton School, where she teaches Advanced Digital Marketing, and serves as a board member, startup advisor, and angel investor.
“Most exit stories end at the closing table. Mine didn't. I built SLTC, sold it to a public company, experienced what happens when your business becomes part of something bigger, and ultimately chose to buy it back. That journey changed the way I think about exits, ownership, and what founders should be asking before they ever sign a deal. I joined The Whisper Group because women deserve a place to think through the whole story, not just the transaction, but the life and business they are building on the other side.”
