SUMMARY:Build a Business Worth Leaving: An Expert Panel for Business Owners
DESCRIPTION:Thinking about your eventual exit? Join six local experts to learn how to prepare yourself and your business for what comes next.\n\n\n\n\nBuild a Business Worth Leaving\n\nWhether you're thinking about selling your business in the next few years\, passing it on to family or employees\, or you have no idea when or how you'll eventually step away\, the best time to start thinking about your exit is before you need one.\n\nExit with Intention brings six local professionals together for an interactive evening designed to help business owners understand the full picture of exit planning from preparing yourself personally and financially to building a business that can successfully operate and transfer without you.\n\nThis isn't a seminar\, and you won't spend the evening listening to six presentations. The conversation is the event. You'll get an overview of the exit planning journey\, then the discussion will be shaped around the questions business owners in the room actually want answered.\n\nWe'll explore questions like:\n\n\n	What is my business actually worth and is that enough for me to exit?\n	When should I start preparing if I want to step away in the next few years?\n	What makes a business more valuable and attractive to a buyer?\n	How do I build a business that doesn't depend entirely on me?\n	What systems\, people\, processes\, and documentation need to be in place?\n	What does the actual sale process look like?\n	What legal pieces should I have in order before a buyer enters the picture?\n	How do I financially prepare for life after the business?\n	And maybe the question owners think about the least: What do I want my life to look like when the business is no longer at the center of it?\n\n\nThe panel will look at exit planning from the personal\, financial\, operational\, valuation\, transaction\, and legal perspectives giving you a chance to see how those pieces fit together rather than encountering them one at a time.\n\nThe facilitated panel conversation will be followed by time to connect with the panelists and other local business owners\, with food provided.
