We help small business owners & founders create a comprehensive exit strategy that positions your business for a smooth transition. From maximizing value to ensuring your team is ready for new leadership.

Realize your small business’s true worth by planning and executing a successful transition strategy.

Small Business Team

Whether you're seeking external investment, preparing for a sale to a third party, or considering an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), a well-prepared business can command a higher valuation and attract more favorable terms.

  • Governance: Establish a strong corporate governance framework, including a well-functioning management structure. This demonstrates to buyers that your business is well-managed and transparent.

  • Deal Structuring: Establish flexible deal structures that can accommodate various buyer preferences, such as earn-out provisions, seller financing, or deferred payments. This can make your business more attractive to a wider range of potential buyers.

  • Due Diligence Preparation: Organize and compile all relevant documentation, including financial statements, contracts, intellectual property records, and customer data. A well-prepared due diligence process can streamline the transaction and reduce the risk of deal-breaking surprises.
