6 MAR 2024 · Foundational to a successful exit plan for most business owners we work with is having their business increase in value – so that when they go to get the value out there is enough net of taxes to do everything they want to do next. And foundational to building value as well as protecting the value of a business, is the use of technology. What technology, when to upgrade or change it how and when to implement it particularly in light of a planned exit timeline or departure date. And with new developments like AI and growing risks like cyber crime…it’s only going to become more and more foundational even to the smallest businesses. Want to learn more?

14 FEB 2024 · Much of what we talk about here pertains to building or accelerating the value of your business, and though also how to protect the value of your business. It’s not enough to focus on revenue growth and profitability as a business owner who wants to exit successfully you also have to continually manage risks to the value and health of your business. And with the ever changing times we live in the risks to be managed are continually changing and keeping up with these changing risks can be difficult particularly when there is a need to focus on things like revenue growth and profitability. So we try to provide some help each year in doing that, and that’s going to be our focus in this episode and one or two more here at the start of a new year. Many if not most of the business owners we work with want to sell or transfer their business to children or key employees – what we would call a sale to insiders. For many reasons, this can take years to accomplish but because of the owners goals, objectives, and desires, it can be the exit route that makes the most sense for their situation. One of the major initiatives or actions that can take a long time is to train and equip your successor or successors to be owners. Successors typically become candidates for ownership because they have proven to be exceptional and key employees – they’ve been good at their job or jobs and they really seem to care about the business. But, as you business owners listening understand there is much more to being a business owner than there is a key employee.
