Here's the truth: You are going to exit your business one day.

Whether you sell it, close it down, or transfer ownership, it's going to happen—unless someone finds the fountain of youth and you hack the art of living forever!

Too many micro and small businesses don't think or operate in a way that supports the big picture of their life. As a result, they miss vital opportunities to make wise decisions and investments that could potentially set them up for financial security long after their days of running the business are over.

No matter how small your business is, you have to be thinking and planning for the future and your retirement.

To help ensure you don't fall into the trap of thinking this is a problem for the future, I've invited Cliff Spolander, a business strategist and exit planner, to talk us through the various ways you can successfully exit your business (and exit does not always mean to sell).

He'll share the steps you can and should be taking right now to ensure you're setting yourself up for success, not just now, but long into your future.

Don't miss this crucial episode! Tune in to learn how to secure your financial future and make strategic decisions that will benefit you long after you’ve exited your business.

Today, we’re breaking new ground—quite literally—by bringing on our first-ever male guest!

Yes, you heard that right. We're shattering our own glass ceiling to introduce you to a man who knows the business world inside out, especially when it comes to the art of the business exit.

And who better to kick off this unprecedented episode than my very own big brother, Cliff Spolander?

Cliff isn’t just any guest; he’s a seasoned business strategist and exit planner who’s here to share his wisdom on a topic that's woefully under-discussed in the female entrepreneur space: How to successfully exit your business!

Without further ado, let’s welcome the man, the myth, the legend—my big brother, Cliff Spolander!

In this episode, you’re going to learn:

• Diverse selling avenues: family, internal staff, or external buyers

• How to use our Business Reflection Tool to enhance your company

• Early strategic planning tips to ensure long-term financial security

• Real-world examples illustrating how to attract the right buyers and secure lucrative deals.
