Episode Synopsis
This week on "Maximize Business Value," Tom dives into a crucial topic for any business owner—being proactive about your business transition. In Chapter 51, titled "Be Proactive!", Tom emphasizes the importance of starting the transition planning process at least five years in advance. Waiting until the last minute can dramatically decrease your options and the potential value of your business. Tom shares key strategies and the critical need for a transition readiness assessment, reminding us that, just like in 'Game of Thrones,' "Winter is coming" for every business.Mastery Partners Elevating Businesses to Achieve The Business Owner’s Dream Exit The unfortunate reality is that for every business that comes on the market (for whatever reason), only 17% of them achieve a successful exit.
