"I should have started earlier."
That's the #1 comment most business owners make after they sell their company, evaluate their profits, and reflect on the work they put into their succession plan.
Will it be yours?
We sure hope not, because the one thing we can tell you is that earlier you start and implement the planning process, the more money you'll see at the time of sale. Period.
If you do anything this year, let it be to plan and begin executing on your 5-year succession plan, EVEN IF YOU DON'T PLAN TO SELL IN THAT TIME! Again, the earlier you get started, the better.

How confident are you in your succession plan? What direction do you need?
