Business Exit Planning

One of the first questions business owners ask about exiting their businesses is, “Just how long is all of this supposed to take?” The true answer is it depends. There are many things to consider as you shape your Exit Plan. You might have a business that’s worth $10 million but is overly reliant on you for success. You might have a strong management team to take over but only one or two huge customers. Different obstacles provide different answers to “How long does this all take?” Fortunately, there are some general guidelines for how long planning can take. However, Exit Planning timeline guidelines are primarily dependent on you. If you and your business are ready for an exit, advisors can shape and implement an Exit Plan for you. If neither you nor the business is prepared, planning will need to include a phase for getting both you and the business ready, as well as a phase devoted to designing and implementing the actual exit.
