Our Process
Your Perfect Exit Starts Here
1. Exit Consult
Your exit journey begins with a free exit consultation. I know you’re busy, so I promise to pack as much value into our 15-minute call as possible.
I’ve started and built over a dozen businesses in my 27-year career, 8 of which were successful enough for me to sell to someone else when I was ready to move on to my next venture. Since my last exit about 6 years ago, I’ve helped dozens of other Founders and CEO’s exit. I’ve evaluated hundreds of businesses, and talked to thousands of Founders and CEO’s.
I encourage you to take advantage of my rich experience both as an exit advisor, and more importantly, as a Founder and CEO of my own successful ventures in varied fields (subscription services, membership sites, publishing, software development, consulting and SaaS).
2. Valuation
Next, we gather some information about your business and give you a free, professional valuation. We do an in-depth analysis of your business to provide you with the most accurate valuation we can. At this point, you’ll understand what an exit would look like to a strategic and a financial buyer. And be able to make an informed decision about whether you want to exit now or in the future. Either way, you’ll know what your business is worth.
3. Exit Plan
Armed with the knowledge of what your business is worth, we can make an exit plan. Does the valuation excite you? If so, then we can go straight to market. If not, do we need to look at a strategic exit? Or maybe put a plan in place to exit 6 – 24 months from now after executing growth strategies and increasing your exit score. We’ll explore all of this together and create your exit plan.
4. Hello Exit
Finally, when you’re ready to exit, we get to work running an end-to-end sales process for you. This is a 12-step process (with a multitude of sub-steps) that takes your business from preparing the marketing package all the way through to cash in your bank account. Collectively, my team has over 100 years of combined experience on over 150 transactions and billions in EV. You’ll benefit from a process that’s been refined to a science. We take care of everything and ensure your exit goes as smoothly as possible.
