Entrepreneurs are the backbone of our economy. Our world is a much better place due to their vision, tenacity, and courage. The biggest problem is, they struggle with figuring out when is the right time to sell, what steps to take, and whom to trust.
Most business owners don’t have an effective exit strategy.
Too many founders go to their graves and leave their businesses up for grabs, leaving their families unable to harvest the wealth from their many years of blood, sweat, and tears. Others fall for the unsolicited offer trap and leave too much money on the table.
Written in a fresh, easy-to-understand style, Mr. Valaitis alternates between storytelling and advice-giving chapters. He introduces us to a couple that goes through the journey from uncertainty to clarity able to live out the rest of their lives on their terms. While the characters are fictitious, what they go through is all too real.
