    Business Exit: Are You Being Pushed or Pulled?

    We will all exit our business someday. The question we need to answer is, “Am I being pushed to exit or pulled into it?” The distinction between the two is entirely about you as the entrepreneur and not about the business itself.   When you are being pushed, it is typically because you feel that you cannot continue with the business as it is. There is something missing which makes continuing not a viable option. A pull exit is when you feel something else pulling you to it. This is a feeling that something else is waiting for you, and you need to go to that something else. A pull exit is by far the better feeling.   Check out this week's episode of the Entrepreneur Aligned Podcast to learn examples of both and hear Jarrod's methodology on how to plan ahead for your business exit in the future.   -----   ABOUT JARROD   Jarrod was born into financial planning and solving financial problems.

    Entrepreneurs have demands on their capital and reserve requirements that most others do not. Thinking about these in concert with personal needs and requirements requires a different approach.   In this week's episode of the Entrepreneur Aligned Podcast, Jarrod segments capital reserve requirements into the following categories. He goes over why each piece of capital is being held in reserve and provides helpful examples and strategies for each one.   Business 1. Business working capital needed within 90 days 2. Business reserve capital that could be needed in 90-180 days 3. Business reserves needed more than 180 days into the future   Personal 1. Personal cash needed within 180 days 2. Personal reserves that cover debt and expenses between 180-365 days 3. Known big ticket items needed one-to-three years in the future   The theme of cash and capital reserves for your business and family is to forecast what you will need and match the investments to that need.
