Foundational to a successful exit plan for most business owners we work with is having their business increase in value – so that when they go to get the value out there is enough net of taxes to do everything they want to do next. And foundational to building value as well as protecting the value of a business, is the use of technology.What technology, when to upgrade or change it how and when to implement it particularly in light of a planned exit timeline or departure date. And with new developments like AI and growing risks like cyber crime…it’s only going to become more and more foundational even to the smallest businesses.Want to learn more?

Much of what we talk about here pertains to building or accelerating the value of your business, and though also how to protect the value of your business.It’s not enough to focus on revenue growth and profitability as a business owner who wants to exit successfully you also have to continually manage risks to the value and health of your business. And with the ever changing times we live in the risks to be managed are continually changing and keeping up with these changing risks can be difficult particularly when there is a need to focus on things like revenue growth and profitability.So we try to provide some help each year in doing that, and that’s going to be our focus in this episode and one or two more here at the start of a new year.Many if not most of the business owners we work with want to sell or transfer their business to children or key employees – what we would call a sale to insiders.For many reasons, this can take years to accomplish but because of the owners goals, objectives, and desires, it can be the exit route that makes the most sense for their situation.One of the major initiatives or actions that can take a long time is to train and equip your successor or successors to be owners.Successors typically become candidates for ownership because they have proven to be exceptional and key employees – they’ve been good at their job or jobs and they really seem to care about the business.But, as you business owners listening understand there is much more to being a business owner than there is a key employee.DISCLAIMER: The information in this presentation is provided as education only, with the understanding that neither the presenter nor ENNIS Legacy Partners or GRF CPAs & Advisors is engaged to render legal, accounting, or other professional services.

If you’re a regular listener, you know we are agnostic as to which exit route an owner chooses – we work to help them decide which exit route most aligns with their goals.And that can be an ESOP, sale to co-owners or management, a transfer to children or family members or a sale to a third party.And when a third party sale is the right option…we want to do all we can to prepare an owner for the eventual transaction – including helping them understand the potential pitfalls that can result in a failed deal.DISCLAIMER: The information in this presentation is provided as education only, with the understanding that neither the presenter nor ENNIS Legacy Partners or GRF CPAs & Advisors is engaged to render legal, accounting, or other professional services.

A key driver of business value and a successful exit is what we would call a “next level management team". A management team that can take the business to the next few levels of growth.You’ve heard many times on this podcast that the less central an owner is to the business the more valuable and attractive their business will be to potential buyers. And if an owner is to be less central they need to develop a strong management team.DISCLAIMER: The information in this presentation is provided as education only, with the understanding that neither the presenter nor ENNIS Legacy Partners or GRF CPAs & Advisors is engaged to render legal, accounting, or other professional services.

If you’re a business owner and have one or more business partners. you more than likely have at least heard of buy-sell agreements. And hopefully you have one that is well-written, current and regularly reviewed. You may also have one if you’re in process of selling your business to insiders or children. A buy-sell agreement provides direction to owners and other stakeholders when the transition of an ownership interest in a business is in question. In the case of a multiple-owner business, a buy-sell agreement can be the most important business planning document they have. An important aspect of an effective buy-sell agreement is how the strategies for the unexpected events of death or disability of owners will be funded. And most often life and disability insurance is used for the funding method when the parties of the agreement are insurable. When insurance is used there are some key planning issues that need to be planned for. And today we want to alert you in a general way to the planning issues as well as a solution. that may or may not be right for your situation. But certainly a solution that should be considered by you and your advisor team.DISCLAIMER:The information in this presentation is provided as education only, with the understanding that neither the presenter nor ENNIS Legacy Partners or GRF CPAs & Advisors is engaged to render legal, accounting, or other professional services.

Building a business that is transferable or sellable really begins when an owner launches a business with their eventual goals for exit --- do they indeed want to get value out of the business at some point in the future with a sale…or do they have vision for eventually transferring the business to children or key employees.If they simply want a lifestyle business while building their desired financial wealth outside of the business…then building for an eventual sale or transfer isn’t necessary…However, we find that most owners want to…and often need to…get some value out of the business eventually…and frequently consider the business to be central to their retirement plan…Also…an owner who builds a transferable business has many more options for their eventual exit than they would with a lifestyle business…So, we can work with owners for years in identifying what aspects of their business….if focused on and strengthened…will increase the value and sellability of the business…We want to help clients get the business to a place where it’s ready to be sold or transferred for the value they need or want…And in doing that they find it helpful to have someone outside of the business…like us…come in and look under the hood and identify blind spots that the owner might have pertaining to growth and value acceleration…And that’s what we want to discuss in this episode….
