We’re at the next stop on our Growth Strategies Masterclass this season and it involves exit planning. Now, you may be thinking, “I thought we were talking about growing our businesses, not exiting them!”

But the truth is, exiting your business by selling it can in fact be a smart move especially if you are seeking what our last guest, Carl Nicpon, described as “Freedom 2.0.” Building your company to eventually sell it requires significant work in formalizing business infrastructure and strengthening financial health.

In this latest episode, our producer and host, Alicia Butler Pierre, reveals why she wants to sell Equilibria, Inc. (the underwriter of this show) as part of the company’s long-term strategic growth plan. This requires a level of honesty, introspection, and selflessness that few entrepreneurs dare to think about let alone act on.

Along the way, Alicia shares her story in hopes that it will also inspire you to:

• Focus on specific business infrastructure elements to build or improve,
• Discover the financial metrics required to attract future investors, partners or buyers,
• Build a dashboard to track core operational activity,
• Consider funding as a source for raising capital required to scale operations, and more!

You’ll also gain access to additional resources where you can learn more about how to: 1) sell your business, 2) find the optimal exit planning strategist, and 3) get maximum sale value for the business you’ve worked so hard to build and grow.
