Exit Strategies for Entrepreneurs

July 10, 2025

12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CST

Even if selling your business isn’t on the immediate horizon, it’s never too early to prepare for a successful exit. This session is designed to help entrepreneurs understand what makes a business valuable—and how to build that value over time, long before a sale is in motion.

This interactive webinar walks participants through the critical components of a strong exit strategy, including succession planning, valuation drivers, operational readiness, and common pitfalls to avoid. You'll learn how to evaluate your business from a buyer's perspective and identify steps you can take now to ensure your business is attractive, profitable, and transferable when the time is right.

Key takeaways include:

How to assess and grow the value of your business
What buyers are really looking for
The timeline and steps for preparing your business for sale
Exit options beyond traditional sales
How succession and exit planning intersect with long-term strategic goals

This session will offer strategic insights not just for those nearing retirement, but for any business owner who wants to run a company that’s built to last—and one day, transition on their terms.
