Seven Keys to Unlocking the Door to Your Dreams - Exit Strategies for Busines...

It is the author's goal to help the reader understand how they can grow and protect the value of their business, transition that value into personal wealth, and then to grow and protect that wealth for this and future generations.
Starting A Business
Establishing a small business takes determination, hard work, and skill. It is difficult but rewarding. To start, thoroughly research the competition and market. Prepare financially by creating a household budget and maintaining good credit. Most entrepreneurs take out loans, so banks will want to see a business plan demonstrating steady cash flow and collateral to repay debts. While starting a business is challenging, with proper planning and financing a new venture can succeed through quality work and competitive pricing to attract and retain customers. Decision making is also important, so gather information from various sources and consider expert advice carefully. Overall, starting a business requires commitment, but can be achieved through diligence and wisdom.
Creating A Successful Business Through Planning
Creating a strategic business plan is essential for business success. The plan should include defining the business vision and values, setting long-term and short-term goals, outlining the resources and actions needed to achieve the goals, and establishing benchmarks to measure progress. Regularly reviewing progress against the plan allows businesses to address problems early and get back on track to meeting their objectives.

The key is to properly research options and make the best decisions possible with the resources available, with the goal of doing the best rather than just getting by.
Business planning

- The plan should include an executive summary, company overview, products/services, market analysis, strategy, management team, and financial plan to prove revenue will exceed expenses.
- Maintaining and reviewing the plan against results allows the business to track progress and make adjustments to objectives and strategies

6 financial planning decisions that great business owners make
- 1. 6 financial planning secrets of great business owners
- 2. They pay themselves a regular income first Paying yourself first ensures you maintain control of what you draw from the business in terms of tax & allows you to work it into cashflow
- 3. They gradually de-risk from their business Assuming it aligns with your business growth ambitions, why not de-risk by moving assets over to your personal balance sheet using good planning (you know who to call)
- 4. They use any excess cash You may need it for the business & equally, you may not! So think proactively about how much cash you should keep in your business and why. See previous slide for inspiration...!
- 5. They surround themselves with a great team You can do anything. But you can't do everything. A great business owner surrounds themselves with those who share their drive, desire and dreams. Leaving them free to focus on running and growing the business
- 6. They have a clear exit strategy Don’t underestimate the importance of this! By having a clear exit in mind, this makes you think about what you need to exit for to achieve the lifestyle you want, how the business would need to look to do this….and crucially provide a target / goal to aim for….
- 7. They begin planning much earlier There are ways to maximise the value of your business for you, your family and your colleagues if you organise things ahead of time…. Leaving until the last minute may mean you don’t retain as much of the value you have created
- 8. You're great. Grow with us.
