FOUNDER EXIT ADVISORS

You'll probably sell your company once. It should go right.

Straight answers for founders thinking about an exit in the next few years: what the business is worth, what buyers look for, and how to get from a first conversation to a closed deal without losing your people or your leverage.

How an exit usually goes

1

Know the number. A realistic value range, and the few things that would raise it.

2

Get ready. Clean financials, a team that can run without you, fewer surprises in diligence.

3

Find the right buyer. A confidential process with buyers who fit your company and your goals.

4

Close well. Price, terms and a transition plan you can live with.
