This episode of the Maximize Business Value Podcast is the first of a two-part series where Tom Bronson talks about why every business owner should take the time to develop a solid exit strategy. Too many business owners wait until a year out to start strategizing, which could provide short-term results. Properly executing an exit strategy includes de-risking, increasing enterprise value and aligning your people, all of which should come years before its time to exit the business. Tom’s book Maximize Business Value or his e-book The Blind Spot: Hidden Risks help business owners get ahead of the exit planning process and transition on your terms. Listen now to increase the value of your business!

Elevating Businesses to Achieve The Business Owner’s Dream Exit
The unfortunate reality is that for every business that comes on the market (for whatever reason), only 17% of them achieve a successful exit. You read that right. 83% of attempted business transitions never reach the closing table. Mastery Partners is on a mission to change that. We ELEVATE businesses to achieve maximum value and reach that dream exit.
Our objectives are simple - understand where the business is today, identify opportunities for dramatic improvement, and offer solutions to enhance the business, making it more marketable and valuable. And that all starts with understanding the business owner’s definition of his or her dream exit.
Mastery has developed a 4-Step Process to help business owners achieve their dreams.
STEP 1: Transition Readiness Assessment
STEP 2: Roadmap for Value Acceleration
STEP 3: Relentless Execution
STEP 4: Decision: Now that desired results are achieved, the business is ready for the next step in the journey!
