Hah! Well that’s a little embarrassing- I’d better wipe the egg 🍳 off my face 🤦♂️.
Actually no, I don’t know of any to be honest. I think maybe it’s an unusual (and underrated/appreciated) business model for many people. 🤷♂️
I can recommend 'Built to Sell' by John Warrillow.
It's not a perfect match for productized service topic, but:
The topic comes wrapped in an easy to digest and entertaining story with a focus on agency work, but I find if you replace 'agency' with 'freelancer' it's fine, though. Also the bottom line was not only "sell the business" as one option, the outcome was pretty much also: 'once you have built such a business, you might just want to keep it' :-)
Some nice summaries in the comments here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10075698-built-to-sell

Besides that, not a book but I really enjoy listening to http://productizepodcast.com/ and find that a major source of information as well as motivation for my productization initiatives.
Thanks so much
