  • New Research - Life Without Regret After Business
    Tune in to hear John Warrillow share a new wave of research into business owners and their readiness to exit their business. Today, 3 in 4 owners end up regretting the decision to exit their company just one year after the sale. Why wouldn’t they be happy as clams? Owners are likely to skip four preparation steps they need to complete well in advance of selling to have a happy (and lucrative) exit.
    John is an entrepreneur and author with over 20 years of research experience into the small and medium business (SMB) market. He founded The Value Builder System™ to level the playing field for business owners as they approach their exit. Over 46,000 business owners have taken the Value Builder Questionnaire, and with the support of Certified Value Builders™, such as brokers, M&A professionals, and coaches, they’re using the statistically-proven methodology to improve company value by up to 71%.
