I generally keep this podcast and my brokering separate, but there's some crossover here. I dive into a local Utah cleaning business that does residential and commercial cleanings and can be run entirely remotely. It has about $5k a month in recurring revenue and about $150k in revenue the last 12 months. It did about $20k in profit, with some clear paths to growth in terms of marketing and focus.

In This Episode A business doesn't become sellable at the moment you decide to exit—it becomes sellable years before that through intentional preparation. In this episode, Adi Klevit interviews Channing Hamlet about what truly determines whether a business can be sold at a premium. Channing outlines four critical areas owners must address early: personal clarity on exit goals, tax planning, personal financial planning, and business readiness. He emphasizes that exit preparation is not a last-minute decision, but a long-term strategy. Adi and Channing dive deeply into business readiness, focusing on transferability—the ability for a business to operate without undue risk once the owner exits. Channing explains how concentration risk, undocumented processes, and founder dependency all reduce buyer confidence and often force deal structures that delay or reduce payout. The conversation brings everything back to systems. Channing shares real-world examples of businesses that failed to sell because knowledge lived in one person's head, as well as companies that achieved premium outcomes by documenting processes, building teams, and engineering risk out of the business. The episode reinforces a key systems principle: the easier it is to transfer how the business runs, the more valuable it becomes.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Mitch McGinley, founder of Boutique Fitness Broker, joins the podcast to share how he transformed a struggling yoga studio into a 5× exit and went on to help over 70 owners sell their businesses. He talks about growing his brokerage to $20M in annual deals, the emotional ups and downs of exiting, and the common mistakes owners make when preparing for a sale. Mitch opens up about navigating COVID, learning disciplined focus, and building a business that now supports his dream life in Spain. His journey blends resilience, smart strategy, and deep passion for helping small business owners achieve life-changing exits. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? Mitch McGinley says the hardest thing in growing a small business is learning how to say no. He explains that owners constantly get pulled in different directions — ideas, opportunities, people, problems — and without the discipline to say no, you end up overwhelmed and unfocused. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Mitch McGinley says his favorite business book is "Built to Sell" because it clearly explains how to shape a business into a scalable, well-structured operation that can run without the owner and eventually be sold for strong value, making it one of the most useful guides he's ever read. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Mitch McGinley says there are many great podcasts and online learning resources to help grow a small business, but instead of naming just one, he recommends continuously listening to a wide variety of shows and learning platforms because each one offers unique perspectives, lessons, and insights that can help business owners improve their skills, sharpen their thinking, and stay adaptable as their business grows. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Mitch McGinley says that the number one tool or resource he recommends for growing a small business is artificial intelligence, because owners who don't embrace AI right now risk falling behind, while those who use it can save time, make smarter decisions, improve marketing, and operate far more efficiently. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Mitch McGinley says the advice he would give himself on day one of starting out in business is simply "It's gonna be okay." He explains that the journey is full of stress, doubt, and unexpected challenges, but looking back, he realizes that things always work out when you stay consistent, keep learning, and push through the hard moments.

Episode Title: The Hidden Benefits of Preparing Your Business for Sale Host: Marcia Riner | Business Growth Strategist, Infinite Profit® Guest: Marty M. Fahncke | Acquisitions Advisor, Westbound Road Episode Summary: In this insightful episode, Marcia Riner and Marty Fahncke delve into why every business owner should prepare their business for sale, even if they never plan to sell it. Marty, who has helped hundreds of small businesses scale to over $1 Billion in revenue and facilitated $450 million in acquisitions, shares his expert insights on how proper preparation can significantly increase a business's value and readiness for unforeseen circumstances. Key Talking Points: Marty's Journey and Expertise: Marty shares his extensive background in business growth and acquisitions, emphasizing the lessons he learned along the way. His experience highlights the critical importance of always being ready to sell. Why Every Business Should Prepare for Sale: Marty discusses the often-overlooked reasons for preparing your business for sale, including the "Four D's and a B" (Divorce, Debt, Disagreements, Disease, and Burnout). These factors can unexpectedly force a business sale, and being prepared can prevent financial loss and ensure smooth transitions. Steps to Maximize Business Value: Get Your Financials in Order: Accurate, up-to-date financials are crucial. Marty emphasizes the need for professional bookkeeping and accounting to ensure your financial health is transparent and appealing to potential buyers. Implement an Operating System: Establishing a comprehensive business operating system enhances efficiency and streamlines operations, making the business more attractive and easier to transition. Owner Exit Plan: Reducing the owner's involvement in daily operations increases the business's appeal to buyers, as it demonstrates that the business can run independently. Identify Your Buyer: Building your business with a potential buyer in mind helps ensure it meets the criteria that make it attractive to future owners. Understand Your Valuation Target: Knowing your business's true value and what it takes to reach your financial goals is essential for long-term planning and eventual sale. Focus on Profit, Not Tax Mitigation: Prioritizing profit over minimizing taxes increases your business's valuation, making it more appealing to buyers. Prepare for the Long Term: Maintaining clean and profitable financials and operations for at least three years before a sale can significantly enhance your business's value and appeal. Key Quotes: "Even if you never plan to sell your business, things can happen that might force you into it." "Preparing your business for sale, even if you never plan to sell it, is a wonderful thing no matter what." "A business that revolves around you is very difficult to sell because I can't sell you." Special Offer: Marty offers a free copy of his upcoming book, "Boomer Sells the Business: A Step-by-Step Guide to Cashing Out and Living Large," along with a workbook.

Are you getting ready to sell your business? Ever thought about the digital assets you might be overlooking? Marketing expert Chloe Thomas dug into the critical aspects of getting your business exit-ready. One point that really stood out was the importance of owning your digital assets, like domain names, ad accounts, and website hosting. Chloe reminded us that many businesses forget about these online essentials. Imagine going through due diligence and finding out you don't actually own your crucial online properties. It could be a major red flag for potential buyers, and it's a risk you definitely want to avoid. So, as you handle the complexities of getting your business ready for a sale, take a step back and ensure that you have full ownership and control over your digital assets. It's a small yet crucial detail that could have a big impact on the success of your business sale. Have you ever thought about the ownership of your digital assets when preparing your business for sale? What steps have you taken to ensure that you have full control over these essential components of your business?

At some point, you're going to hand the keys to your business to someone else. That's true whether you're hiring employees or contractors or planning for succession. Life happens. And it's just not in the cards for you to be able to run your business, by yourself, forever. For many entrepreneurs, selling big is the dream. In the startup space, they call it an “exit” — the point at which some big fish gobbles up your smart idea and pays you handsomely for it. But the unicorn exit is a rare thing (that's why they call it a unicorn, after all) and lots of firms out there need to think about life after the founder. Even if you're running a mid-sized company, chances are, one day, you'll want to sell off your business and enjoy the fruits of your success. So what do you do? That's trickier than you might think. Fortunately, there are people out there who can help. Jude David is co-founder and Vice President of Mergers and Acquisitions for Final Ascent, a firm that specializes in helping mid-market businesses find buyers. Jude has a background on the legal side of finance. And he his co-founder Steve Conwell realized that mid-level businesses — those with valuations between $10 million and $200 million — weren't served by the investment banks that typically helped the big companies find buyers and partners for mergers. So they launched Final Ascent in 2017 to fill that void. They've grown to acquire clients all over the U.S., and primarily do their client work remotely. The company helps business owners think through how to prep their business for sale, making sure the company's profile is as attractive as possible to bump the value of the sale.
