Exit Planning is a dynamic strategy which allows an owner to be ready for an exit on his or her terms. There is no best time to exit your business; but, there is a worst time – when you are not prepared and you need to exit. Too many owners exit their business when they have to because of external factors like their health, the economy, or other unforeseen circumstances.
