Exit Readiness

Building Value

Is it enough?

Business or Job?

For over 15 years, I’ve been advising business owners on how to successfully transition their businesses—whether through selling, scaling, or stepping into a new role. A common issue I’ve encountered is that many buyers undervalue businesses because they rely too heavily on the owner, making it difficult to transfer ownership. As a result, the business’s value often falls short of the owner’s expectations, leading to disappointment when it’s time to exit. As a business broker for over 15 years, I’ve seen this repeatedly. That’s why I became a Certified Value Builder™—to help business owners not only meet their financial goals but also secure the legacy they’ve worked so hard to build.


As a business owner, it’s easy to get caught up in the daily grind, growing comfortable without a clear plan to increase the value of one of your most important assets—your business. But planning for the future is not just about retirement or a financial transaction; it’s about ensuring your business can thrive without you and securing the legacy you’ve built. My holistic approach, leveraging on a variety of tools and my multidisciplinary advisor network, helps ensure that your business meets both your financial goals and your vision for the future.


Let’s work together to ensure your business not only meets but exceeds your expectations, preserving the legacy you’ve built and setting the stage for long-term success, whether you plan to sell, transition, or simply strengthen your enterprise for the future.
