EXIT ENGINEERING®: A design-build process for business owner transitions. PLAN WITH PURPOSE, ACHIEVE YOUR WIN. Starting a business and running it successfully is one thing. How much do you know about exiting your company? Truth is, no matter how successful you’ve been as a business owner, you may be the least knowledgeable about your existing options. What is it worth? How do you find a buyer? How much does it cost? How long will it take? Can you hand it over to your employees or your kids? Will your partners buy you out? And, most of all, how do you begin? Your exit is the final act that determines your legacy. The first thing to know about exiting your business is that there is no one right way. Each business owner is unique, so each exit requires its own strategy. Business owners within the same industry take very different exit paths. It’s all about owner, business and market readiness; and it begins with defining your win. The approach requires intellectual agility, integrity, and exit-option expertise. At Exit Consulting Group, we call this Exit Engineering - managing your business ecosystem to bring about your win. We see your business as more than a profit enterprise because we understand it is a multi-dimensional endeavor where humanity and compassion are equally important. Exit Engineering requires commitment and candor—from you and from us. We will mirror your passion for your business with purpose for your exit, combining business logic with emotional intelligence to realize your win. Exit Engineering, Question 1: What’s your win?
