Estimates indicate that between 65 and 85
percent of most business owners’ net worth
is tied-up in their businesses. A significant
amount, indeed — which makes it all the more
surprising when we realize that only about 12
percent of business owners have developed
strategies, and a plan, for the inevitable exit
from their businesses!
If you would like to retire or diversify within the next three to five years, it
is absolutely critical to determine your goals and know exactly what it
will take — in cash — to reach them. As exit strategists, our aim is to
help you identify the specific goals your business must achieve so you
can exit not only when you want, but also the way you want. This can
mean the difference between leaving your business because you've run
out of options, and leaving "in style" — with a carefully executed plan.
• Determining the current value of your business. (What is your
business "worth" today – in cash.)
• Developing strategies to enhance business value. (Maximizing
value in the eyes of potential buyers and increasing the chances
of a successful transfer of ownership.)
• Developing a contingency plan for your business. (What would
happen to your business – and your family – if you were unable
to run things tomorrow?)
• and more . . .
Exit planning involves a number of important steps, including:
As a business owner, your “End Goal” is to optimize the value of your company in order to maximize cash and reduce risk when the time comes to depart.

Another way to look at this is that a majority of business owners in the
U.S. may unknowingly be risking their single greatest asset — and what
likely represents a substantial portion of their needed retirement income.
Leaving your business in style requires strategic planning and the ability to set specific steps in motion.
