What’s your exit plan?
Whether or not you have a solid plan in place, you will eventually leave your business.
The question isn’t if you’ll leave – it’s how you’ll leave.
Wouldn’t you prefer to leave on your own terms, in a way that’s most beneficial to you?
- Have you thoroughly examined all your exit planning options?
- Do you have confidence that your exit will allow the business to continue to flourish?
- Have you considered what you will need post-exit?
Your successful business is a reflection of your hard work and talent. Your exit should be, too.
Are you the backbone of your business?
If you are what holds the business together, how will you step away?
You simply can’t exit a business if your exit prompts calamity because nobody else knows how to take the reins.
Have you created a culture of reliance on you as the backbone of your business?
- Does the responsibility for your company’s growth land squarely on your shoulders?
- Have you identified and started training a successor yet?
- Do you have a tangible plan for stepping away that allows the business to operate without you?
It can be difficult to plan for stepping away from something you worked so hard to build. We’ll help you craft an exit plan that allows you to experience a graceful exit that doesn’t have a negative impact on the business.
A Regretless Exit
For many business owners, the realization that they didn’t adequately prepare for their exit brings regret.
We know it’s not easy to walk away from the business you built, but it’s far worse to walk away when you don’t have a solid plan in place and make rash decisions.
- Earnings Regret: Many business owners realize in hindsight that they didn’t receive a fair amount comparable to what their business was actually worth.
- Operational Regret: When owners walk away from their business without first ensuring the business can thrive without them, they may regret the company’s inevitable decline.
- Post-Exit Regret: It’s not just about exiting the business. It’s also about what your new purpose is post-exit. Without a plan, many owners feel regret because they lack direction in their lives.
We’ll guide you toward an exit that sets you up for a post-exit life that’s free from regrets and full of satisfaction.
