Exit Planning is a business strategy!
An exit plan asks and answers all the business, personal, financial, legal, and tax questions involved in transitioning a privately owned business. It includes contingencies for death, disability, divorce, disagreement, distress and disease. Its purpose is to maximize the value of the business at the time of exit, minimize taxes, and ensure the owner is able to accomplish all his or her personal and financial goals in the process.
