Chuck McDonald is the Founder of Cresscila, a company dedicated to assisting small business owners in creating value through education, optimization, and strategic vision. After a distinguished 20-year career in wealth management, during which he held key roles in marketing, sales, client optimization, compliance, and staffing, Chuck established Cresscila in 2024 to pursue a new chapter inspired by the successes and lessons from his clients. As a Certified Financial Planner and Certified Exit Planning Advisor, he leverages his extensive experience to empower entrepreneurs to transform blind spots into opportunities, ultimately enhancing profitability and lifestyle. Chuck's mission is to equip business owners with the knowledge and tools necessary to achieve success beyond their expectations. In this episode… Letting go of a business is never just a transaction, it's a transition. Yet too many owners only start thinking about an exit when it's already on the horizon, missing crucial steps that could make or break their financial future. What's the biggest blind spot owners have when preparing to exit? According to Chuck McDonald, a seasoned exit planning advisor and former wealth manager, most owners don't realize that exiting a business is as much a personal journey as it is a financial one. He highlights the importance of aligning business operations, personal goals, and financial readiness years in advance. Without that alignment, owners risk regret, missed value, or even a failed sale. Chuck explains that many founders are deeply intertwined with their businesses, making it hard to delegate or detach when the time comes. By starting early, removing risk, and building a self-sufficient team, owners not only increase valuation but also create the freedom to transition on their own terms. In this episode of the Financial Clarity podcast, Hannah Smolinski sits down with Chuck McDonald, Founder of Cresscila, to discuss what most business owners miss when planning their exit. Chuck breaks down the true meaning of exit planning, the emotional roadblocks owners face, and how to prepare your business to be buyer-ready. He also shares how to protect your personal legacy while maximizing value.

Family or business first? Have you ever wondered? There's no right or wrong answer for that. It depends on what people believe or how they've been taught to believe. While some people implement the family-first business, others believe in the business-first family. Both may seem right from different perspectives, but there's more to it than just being right or wrong. In this week's episode, we've had the pleasure of having a conversation with another industry expert, specializing in family business advocacy. Rob Ferguson is the founder and president of Ferguson Alliance, a family business strategic advisory service. Having led middle-market family-owned businesses for more than ten years, he uses his qualifications as a Certified Exit Planning Advisor and NACD Board Leadership Fellowship to help CEOs and boards navigate generational changes. His goal is to modify the statistics so that family companies last longer. He believes that with the correct foundation in place, family businesses may build an infinite legacy. He joined us today to talk about the essential question for any family business: family needs or business priorities first. Starting the conversation, Rob defines the two terms' family first business' and 'business first family' along with how they help business owners build their long-term strategy. If you choose the family-first business, then you are choosing a family member, whether they are qualified or not, and if you choose the business-first family, you put the right people in the right position. We then talk about the importance of deciding how a family member joins the business and what requirements they need to fulfill. It makes them understand that they have to earn it if they want to join the business. Rob also explains the procedure for firing a family member, especially if they are a shareholder. In the next phase of the conversation, Rob kindly shares some crucial details on the essential elements of a succession plan, structuring a succession plan, and the transition of business ownership. Furthermore, Rob explains the advantage of tying family values into a business culture and how it helps to continue the legacy. We also hear Rob explain how he educates people from younger generations who become business owners. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS [04.43] Family first business or business first family.

Mastering the Art of Business Exit PlanningIn a recent episode of the UpMyInfluence podcast, host Josh had an enlightening conversation with Len Bruskiewitz, a certified business and executive coach and certified exit planning advisor. Len specializes in helping business owners, particularly those with revenues between $1 million and $10 million, prepare for a successful transition out of their businesses. This blog post delves into the key themes and actionable advice shared during the episode, providing a comprehensive guide for business owners looking to master the art of exit planning.One of the most striking statistics shared by Len is that only about 20 to 25% of businesses that go up for sale actually sell. This low success rate underscores the critical need for meticulous exit planning. Len emphasizes that business owners should start thinking about their exit strategy well in advance—ideally, from day one. Key considerations include having a clear post-exit plan, developing a robust growth strategy, maintaining accurate accounting records, and creating distance from the business to make it more attractive to buyers.Josh and Len also discuss the emotional challenges that many business owners face when planning their exit. For many, their business is a significant part of their identity and purpose. Strategies to address these emotional hurdles include seeking professional guidance, focusing on legacy, and planning for an exciting future post-exit. Len shares examples of both successful and unsuccessful exit plans, highlighting the importance of starting early, improving business operations, and engaging potential successors.About Len Bruskiewitz:As a Business Coach & Certified Exit Planning Advisor, he specializes in assisting business owners generating $1-10M in revenue to plan and execute successful transitions of their companies to family members, third parties, or employees, all according to their specific timelines and terms.

In times of hardship, it's tempting to avoid the difficult tasks and opt for the easy way out. However, this often leads us away from achieving our goals. We tend to make excuses and justify our actions, only to realize that we are the ones hindering our own success. The internal dialogue within our minds is often contributory to this. Tina Moser is an Entrepreneur, Growth Advisor, Podcast Host, Speaker, Certified Exit Planning Advisor, Professional Life Coach & Strategic Financial Director at Cultivate Advisors and also the host of Women Choosing Growth podcast. In this episode, Tina guides us towards adopting the right mindset to reach our goals. She empowers us to break through our self-imposed limits and overcome the limiting beliefs that hold us back from success. By delving into Tina's own life, we can learn how she connected with her core and became the successful person she was meant to be. This lesson isn't just relevant to business, but also applies to our relationship with food, eating, and body image struggles. Join us as we discover the path to lasting happiness and freedom.
