Guiding Businesses From Transition to Transaction, Laurie Barkman on Your Business, Your Life

Guiding Businesses From Transition to Transaction

Without proper guidance and careful planning, it can be difficult to know where to start when considering how best to transition ownership and ensure profitable continuity for yourself and future owners.

Furthermore, understanding the pitfalls of succession planning and developing clear exit options before any transactions occur is essential in creating positive long-term outcomes for all parties involved.

Laurie Barkman, The Business Transition Sherpa, Author, and M&A Advisor, joins host of Your Business, Your Life, Matt DiFrancesco, as they talk about how entrepreneurs can approach transitioning their businesses from transactional model efforts to more strategic initiatives —and what measures need to be taken to avoid common missteps along the way.
