The truth is; however, failing to plan is a plan to fail when it comes to your business exit strategy. You need to have an exit strategy in place for your business. Everyone thinks of their future, but they don’t always take active steps in the present to prepare for what they want tomorrow. There are many reasons why you should discuss when and how to exit your business. Here are eleven reasons to have the exit conversation now:

Client Experience for Professional Services - KeynoteCX Pilots
Experience for Client Services is different. Law firms, consultancies, engineering firms, management consultancies have to plan for and deliver experiences where the relationship is the core product. This keynote was delivered by Steven Keith from CX Pilots at CXPS 2017. It details what Client Services professionals need to thinking and doing to succeed in Professional Services today.
It explores the difference between CX/CEM (customer experience) and Client Experience.
Customer Experience: Customer Experience is the sum total of all feelings and interactions a customer has with a brand over time. It’s a volume concern. Lower incremental stakes.
Sure, it’s about relationships, but it’s a lot more about removing friction from discrete interactions.
Client Experience: Client Experience has a similar sum but it is far more concerned with longevity and depth of relationships.While discrete interactions are important, it’s more about qualitative relationships where highly-skilled services are the “product” delivered, personally.
Simon Russell, Director of Consulting at Work Group, gave a presentation at the AGCAS Graduates into Smaller Businesses Conference in Birmingham on 26 November.
He argued that the principles of employer marketing remain the same whether you're an SME or large employer. What's more, smaller employers have a clear advantage over the heavyweight graduate employers.

2. The Identification of the `right` people for your company
I will operate a focused assessment with a tightly specified brief(s)/contextualised role profiles to suit
your company needs. It is a distinctive, highly tailored approach. Moreover, it is successful.
People = Performance = Productivity = Profit
My experience is within the business sector - I have a good idea of what will work and what won't. I
also have useful contacts.
The presence of an outsider in your company brings objectivity, allowing management to look at
issues from other angles when planning the business future. It also brings discipline to the process,
ensuring you prepare board papers giving full information about the firm's performance and prospects.
Colin Thompson is a true benefit and will add value to the business in many ways, so take on board
this investment and see your `bottom-line` improve.
Testimonial
"Although I've arrived in this industry only just over a year ago, I did recognize immediately the thought
leadership and authority that comes from Colin's person and work. You'll find many very committed
and brilliant people in this industry. However, Colin out performs them with his passion for this
business, his impressive heritage, his ability to simplify the complexity of Digital Printing and his open
mind, enabling him to not only concentrate on Document Management but also on other very
promising parts of human life"
