“Begin with the end in mind” – Stephen Covey
There are only three directions you and your business can go: Your business dies; You die; You sell the business.
Of the three options, selling your business can be one of the most profitable and rewarding options, but knowing how – and when – to exit is a skill few master in their lifetimes.
Even if you don’t want to sell your business today – or ever, having a strategic exit plan helps you build a better, higher growth, more valuable business.
Starting your business with the strategic plan to exit or changing course today to align your business’ goals for the most ideal exit can be done if you know how and our guest expert speaker at the October, 2013 Bay Area Mastermind meeting does.
