Exit Strategy Planning

“Bo Burlingham, who interviewed over 100 entrepreneurs for his book Finish Big, found a full 50% of those who exit their businesses are dissatisfied with the way the transaction went down. And not only are they a little miffed, they’re miserable.”

When selling your business, assembling your exit team is what defines your sucCess.

Your future buyer is counting on you to make mistakes. Just picture them: they are sophisticated, talented, experienced and expecting you to slip up somewhere along the way. When assembling your exit team, getting the right people on the bus to position you for massive success can be one of the biggest hurdles to over come.

We help you select your exit team of leaders working towards a singular goal, maximizing the sales value of your business, and helping you win BIG. Your exit team should be a group of business leaders, happy and motivated to get the job done and outperforms as a result of your culture.

With X10 as your strategic advisor, we will provide a non-biased, behind the scenes, perspective and commentary. The cost for having someone that is only loyal to you is a rounding error when compared to the emotional and financial value they can provide. 

“If you blow a sale on a key account, you can always re-tool, improve and try again. If you blow the sale of a business you spent a decade or even a lifetime building, though, you might never recover.”

I have known Hermann for over 20 years, when we joined the YPO organization together. Through this interaction, we served on each others informal board of directors. Through this interaction, I have found Hermann to be ethical, thoughtful, and compassionate in both his family dealings, and family relationships.
