Learning Objective

  • To Identify the various options available to an existing business owner.

  • To identify the pros & cons for each of the exit options.
  • To recall the preparation and implementation of various exit options.

Course Overview

You’ve built a successful business and are ready to move on, either to a new venture or to a well-deserved retirement. 

Now what? 

Have you considered what happens when you desire not to continue to work?

Have you ever considered your exit strategy? 

Business owners rarely conduct effective succession planning and knowledge transfer. In fact, 60% of second-generation leaders fail. 90% of third-generation leaders fail. To make matters worse, the majority of retiring owners have the vast majority of their wealth tied up in their companies. If their businesses fail, owners' payments often stop and the owner's retirement plans are dramatically altered. This online CPE course focuses on ensuring the company will continue successfully.

Only 50 percent of business owners have a written succession plan in place. Worse yet, there are some that might even be in line such as a son, daughter friend or spouse and they do not even know they are considered.

Best-practice organizations use succession planning to not only prepare for potential leadership challenges but they also rely on such plans to develop and maintain the strong leadership that's required to grow and keep pace with changes in their business, industry, and the overall marketplace.

  • How to Prepare Exit Plans
  • What are Different Exit Options available
  • Selling to Strategic Buyer/Financial Buyer/Management

This is a great first course to get conversations with clients on possible ways they could exit. It is enough information to get you the buzz words for discussions of pros and cons on ways to exit.

I found the CPE to be very informative. I am currently a staff accountant, but I am always willing to learn something new and absorb information. So this CPE was perfect for that.
