A must for business owners who want to move on

There comes a time when one must leave what they have worked on for so long. "Exiting Your Business, Protecting Your Wealth: A Strategic Guide for Owners and Their Advisors" is a guide to extracting oneself from one's business. An exit strategy for business is needed, in order to keep one's own prosperity as well as that of the businesses. With special chapters on realizing when one is a workaholic, moving onto a different career or retiring, and setting realistic exit goals, "Exiting Your Business, Protecting Your Wealth" is a must for business owners who want to move on.

A must read for all business owners who are committed to growing their personal net worth

I am Certified Exit Planning Advisor and a colleague of John's who also helps business owners grow and harvest their entrepreneurial wealth. I loved his book. It is the most comprehensive approach to the subject that I have read. Every business owner who hopes to one day sell his/her business needs to read this book- and to get started now to implement his advice. I don't recall John actually saying this, but I know he would agree with me when I say that the business owner needs to run his/her business every day as though he plans to leave it tomorrow, no matter what exit strategy he has in mind. Buy the book now. It is well worth the investment of your time and money.

A Must-Read for the Small Business Owner

If you own a business, you need to read this book. Even if you aren't thinking of selling or exiting any time soon, this insightful book will help you think about your business as an investment, instead of as a job. You will know what the final "play" looks like...so you can make the decisions NOW to get there. Far from being a stuffy legal treatise, it is a practical how-to manual that lays out the options and provides real life scenarios that make them come to life. I highly recommend this book!
