Anyone who has ever attempted or succeeded at building a company knows that it takes a special kind of faith and conviction. To go out on your own with no security (and often no clue) is one of the most challenging financial decisions a person can make. Statistically, you are almost certain to fail. Mentally, you are likely to experience a place of doubt you never knew existed. Physically, you are likely to be exhausted for years. But on the other side of that is a reward like no other. Financial freedom, independence, and an increased quality of life are just a few of the many blessings that come with a successful entrepreneurial endeavor. To fully enjoy those rewards as a small to mid-size business owner there is one final step—the exit.
This book was not written as a guide on how to sell your business but as a way for sellers to understand how to plan for a sale, what to expect from the process, how to select and navigate working with an intermediary, and how to reach the highest exit value possible.
