Your business may not be ready for a life change when you are

We see it all the time. You’ve spent an entire lifetime building your business so that you’d be in the position to do what you really wanted when the time came.
The problem is that when you finally reach that point, wanting to explore your options, all of your wealth is trapped inside of the business. And to get it out is proving far more difficult than expected. 

Have you taken the steps to maximize the value of your business and make it attractive to potential buyers? To make it a truly valuable and sellable company?

80 to 90% of the typical business owner's wealth is tied up in the business's value.
Your business feels like it’s sucking the life out of you. Your family time is suffering. You’re the one that’s solving all the problems. Cash flow is never enough. Employee turnover is deflating.

Sound familiar?

If your business feels like it’s stuck, everything can suffer. Employee morale can be affected and productivity and profitability can suffer as a result.

We believe you deserve a business that’s working for you, not the other way around, so you can reach what we call the Freedom Point. A point where you have a business that thrives without you at the center of all activity. When you reach the Freedom Point, you’ll find yourself with options. The option to sell the business or keep it and let it keep generating income for you.

That’s what having a sellable company will do for you. It affords you options.

If you’re like most business owners, your aspiration for freedom is hardwired inside you. Starting a company may not be enough to facilitate the freedom you imagined.  Being “the boss” doesn’t necessarily free you from demanding customers or highly dependent employees.

When you started your business, you set out for freedom but along the way, you got stuck. Or maybe the better word is trapped.

Trapped in a “job”. You’re the super-employee, the one with all the institutional knowledge and solves all the problems.

Trapped in short-term thinking focused on making money instead of being focused on long-term strategic thinking centered on building value.

Trapped wealth. For many business owners their business is their largest asset by a wide margin. The reality is that more than 80% of businesses never sell, and many that do unfortunately leave a lot of money on the table.

Having a great exit from your business is a process and not an event. It takes time and effort to build a truly valuable business that buyers are willing to pay a premium for. But the things is… when you have a business that has all the characteristics that make it valuable to potential acquirers - especially one that doesn’t require you the owner at the center of all activity, it’s also a great business to own.

You shouldn’t have to put off being able to chase the dreams that you started out with because you don’t know where to start.

“Of the 80% to 90% of business owners who have their financial wealth locked up in their companies, only about 8% of them have a plan for how to liberate it.”

We believe you deserve options. Reaching the Freedom Point isn’t just about selling your business. Sometimes you’re better off holding on to the business as a great income generating asset and you change your role from operator to owner.

Maybe you want to sell, maybe you don’t. There are several ways to liberate your wealth from the business that don’t require an outright sale.

We’ll get you ready for an awesome outcome, regardless of the path you choose!

Make Your
Company Sellable.

Get to a point where you own the business, the business doesn’t own you.
We all set out for freedom and along the way, we got stuck. Stuck sacrificing time with our families. Stuck trying to figure out why growing has become so much more difficult. Stuck being in the center of every decision and having to solve every problem.

We help business owners reach their Freedom Point. Our team has spent years running companies, down in the trenches, just like you. We’ve seen those companies through their exits, so we know what it takes.

We’ve completed seven and eight figure deals to different types of buyers, including public companies and private equity. We were there throughout the entire process of creating and launching the company, right through the exit.

We’ve also been through what happens next. Having to answer the tough questions for ourselves about what’s next after the sale.

What are you going to do now? What do you do with the money to make it last?

Everything that you’re going to face and experience, we’ve been through it for ourselves and our clients.

We walk alongside our clients on their own journey to increasing the value and salability of their company, while at the same time reducing its dependence on them.

Creating a truly valuable and sellable company is so much more than just looking to sell. It’s getting into a position so that your company runs without you having to be at the center of all activity.

It’s about getting your company in a position where you have choices. It’s about getting your company into a position where it is attractive to potential buyers.

We’re working with a company now where the owner was stuck in the middle of every decision, every problem, and every issue. Trapped in the day to day. We’ve helped position the company where the owner can now take off for months at a time and travel, knowing things are operating as they should. And in doing so, he’s seen the value of the company increase by a multiple north of 8x since we first started our engagement.
And we can do the same thing for you
