Turn Your Owner-Dependent Business Into an Exit-Ready Asset

Is this you?

You may be a fit if:

• You do $1M to $5M in revenue.
• You're thinking about selling to an outside buyer in the next 6 to 36 months.
• The business still leans hard on you.
• The relationships, the decisions and the know-how live in your head.
• You've never sold a business before.
• You're worried they will pick you apart on price, or tie the money to things you can't control.
• What matters to you is what you keep, after tax and after everybody takes their cut.
• You aren't passing it to family or selling it to your staff.

How it works

One step at a time. You don't commit to the next one until the last one earned it.

1. 1

   Step one, and it's free

   The Exit Reality Check Call

   Before you spend months getting ready, we get 3 numbers straight:

   1. What your business would likely sell for today.
   2. What you need to walk away and be done. Your freedom number.
   3. The size of the gap between those two.

   Then we look at what would cause a buyer to knock money off. How much sits on you, whether the numbers hold up, how deep the team goes, what's written down, and where the deal itself can hurt you.

   You leave knowing whether there's something here worth going after.

   If I can't show you a believable gap worth fixing, I'll tell you not to hire me. I've said it on calls before and I'll say it again.

   If there is a gap, we build the plan

   The 3-Day Exit Roadmap Sprint

   If the Reality Check shows something worth going after, the next step is 3 focused days. Together we:

   • Set your baseline valuation
   • Work out your after-tax freedom number
   • Map where the business depends on you, and where a buyer sees risk
   • Put the changes in order, biggest lift first
   • Build the 6 to 18 month plan
   • Name the few things that matter most in the next 90 days

   The roadmap is yours either way, whether we keep working together or not.

   The guarantee

   By the end of Day 3, if you don't believe the roadmap shows a clear, believable path to add at least $100,000 in extra exit value, tell me before we finish and I'll refund your $5,000. You keep the roadmap.

   Then the part that actually changes things

   The 6-Month Exit Advisory

   A plan in a drawer never made anybody a dollar. The 6 months is for owners who want someone experienced beside them while they do the work. You get:

   • 2 calls a month
   • I review the key documents and decisions between calls
   • Help getting you out of the middle of the business
   • Support cleaning up the numbers and the operations
   • Getting the business ready for the questions a buyer will ask
   • Ongoing accountability to stay focused on the work that matters

   This is advisory from above the business. I'm not becoming your COO. You still run the company. I help you make better calls and stop you spending your last few years on things a buyer will never pay for.

   The guarantee

   You're covered for the first 60 days. If at any point in that window you don't feel this is clearly worth multiples of what you're paying, you can stop. On a payment plan we cancel everything remaining. If you paid in full, we stop and refund the unused months. You keep the roadmap and everything we have built.

   When the deal is live

   Ongoing Exit and Deal Advisory

   For a few select clients who are approaching a sale, or already inside one. I stay on through:

   • Indications of interest
   • Letters of intent
   • Due diligence
   • Deal structure
   • Buyer negotiations
   • Closing

   The point isn't to get it sold. The point is to protect what you spent decades building, right up to the wire.
