The Value Journey: How to Drive Profits, Build Wealth, and Exit Your Business on Your Own Terms

Business owners, it's time to change your perspective on exit planning!

Instead of thinking about your exit as the last step in your journey as a business owner, expert business coach and Certified Exit Planning Advisor Jayne McQuillan challenges you to view it as an essential way of doing business.

With a wealth of experience working with privately held and family business owners and as an entrepreneur, Jayne understands the unique pressures, risks, and challenges you face leading your company. She wrote "The Value Journey" as a cautionary tale, sharing real-life stories about the devastating consequences of unplanned and unprepared exits and as a "how-to" guide for business owners who want to exit successfully.

By implementing the strategies and principles outlined in "The Value Journey," you'll build a more valuable business that generates financial gains and personal flexibility today while positioning you and your business to exit on your own terms.

The Value Journey offers a roadmap that will help you:

• Increase profitability
• Ignite scalable growth, creating a transferable business that is attractive to potential buyers
• Create a business that can run without you
• Position you and your business to have options for exit
• Understand how financial acumen and data-driven decisions impact value
• Navigate the unique challenges of family business transitions
• Prepare for your next chapter personally and financially so you can exit without regret
• Provide you peace of mind that comes with knowing your family, employees, customers, and suppliers are well cared for in the event of the unexpected.

75% of business owners plan to exit in the next ten years.

80-90% of a business owner's wealth is tied up in the business.

Only 2 out of 10 businesses that go to market will sell.
