The Benefits of Planning for Life Outside of Work 

How long has it been since you did something just for the fun of it? What is on your list of “Things I’ll Do Someday When I Have Time”? You may think that you need to wait to start checking things off that list, but that’s a mistake.

The Formula for an Effective Exit Plan 

Ask a business owner over the age of 50 when they plan to transition or exit their business, and you’ll get one of two answers:
– a blank stare, or
– “I’ll work another 5-10 years and call it quits.”(And if you ask this person again in another 5-10 years, you’ll likely get the same answer!)

The bottom line is the same – most business owners lack a plan for leaving their business. Read the article to learn what goes into an exit plan.

How To Avoid the Biggest Valuation Mistake Made by Business Owners 

You’ve been working on the sale of your business for months now. All the work, not just to complete this sale but to build a business someone else actually wants to buy, is about to pay off.

You hold your breath as the sales agent slides a piece of paper across the desk towards you…with a number completely different than you’d negotiated!

“As you know, we did a final business valuation last week to determine the final sale price for the closing today,” she explains. “After reviewing all of your records, we have determined that the value decreased from our initial estimate a year ago. As a result, the sale price will be 25% lower than we originally planned.”

What happened to the profitable sale you worked so hard for?!
