What is Your Exit Strategy? begins by highlighting the problem: many business owners do not have the right mindset or plan in place when it comes to selling their business, and therefore, their communities and employees will suffer. With a plan in place, business owners can be prepared for the “Five D’s:” Divorce, Disagreement, Disability, Distress, and Death. 
Linda also highlights the importance of value acceleration, the importance of having a team, and both internal and external sales opportunities.  

Linda Jensen has covered all the bases in this rich and thoughtful analysis of how to develop the best and most effective exit strategy to selling a business. Along with a team of talented experts and advisors, Jensen delivers the goods and offers quality advice.
