Exit With Style, Grace, and More Money
To Exit with Style, Grace, and More Money® is not a pipedream, but it does take smart and hard work. This book lays out the steps in the selling process starting with making sure you, the business owner and seller, are personally ready to exit.

Being prepared for all the investigative process makes it much less frustrating and more rewarding. In addition, you’ll learn about:
- Why the non-financial factors can increase or destroy a valuation.
- How to make your numbers impress buyers.
- What to expect when the lawyers get involved.
- How to let the world know you’re for sale with letting them know who you are.
- Different buyer types and what appeals to them.
