[SEGMENT 1-1] Trump's Free Speech Agenda 1   When it comes to people being concerned about Trump, we had only one. That Trump would believe wrongly that his success would overcome any objections to his second term. I believe now that Trump gets it. Success is only part of the answer. The second part is the complete dismantling of the Deep State. This man dropped a bomb on the Left and the Deep State. [X] SB – Trump First Amendment agenda Shatter the Left wing censorship Bombshell reports, Deep State bureaucrats, Silicon Valley, conspiracy Elections to public health EO banning Federal collusion to censor, limit, categorize, or impede speech No Fed money for mis or disinformation Fire every bureaucrat who participated DOJ to investigate all who were involve in online censorship regime.  [SEGMENT 1-2] Trump's Free Speech Agenda 2 Welcome… Before I get too deeply into this topic, let me play this clip from CNN, where Scott Jennings is concerned about secret meetings. [X] SB – CNN's Scott Jennings on secret meetings     Democrats continue to call Trump “Hitler”, because they acted like Hitler and know that Trump has every right to be a Hitler so to speak. At least in how he deals with them. But this strategy will backfire. Because Trump is going to be dictatorial in his destruction of them. Except his tactics are SELLABLE. They set Trump up to be able to PROVE why he's making these moves.  [SEGMENT 1-3] Trump's Free Speech Agenda 3   [X] SB – Lies told about women's access to healthcare   What better person to lead a free speech agenda, than the man who speaks his mind? Trump speaks his mind as much as any American. And if you ask me, that's what resonated most with people. They didn't always like what he had to say, but they appreciated that he said it. That he had the guts to say what he meant, and he was unapologetic. Do YOU know anybody like that, people listening to TKJN? [X] SB – Pelosi Consequences of Trump's rhetoric Diminishing the power of the president   It's refreshing to hear somebody say something you're thinking, but perhaps don't have the guts to say. Those people become your champion. Look at how many things Trump championed. Close the border Deport illegals Keep criminals in jail or prison Defend the police No sissies in the military No stupid wars And no matter what Trump said or how much sense it made, Democrats and RINOS fought him.  [SEGMENT 1-4] Trump's Free Speech Agenda 4   [X] SB – ABC's Sarah Isgur on how the Left behaves Mandate Yes. Condescending. Arrogant Exclusionary         Look at what Schumer has publicly stated he would do. He will use his power in the Senate to thwart Trump at every turn. Why? Because he's butt-hurt. And what about Gavin Newsom. His state is in freefall, and he has vowed to stop Trump at all cost.    Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

Let's talk about PD. Now, if you ask teachers about PD, most of them will look at you with disdain in their eyes and will say the word PD like it's a bad 4-letter word. Why is this?It doesn't hit the teachers' current pain pointsThey feel like they have other, more important things to do,The implementation of the PD adds more to their plate instead of making what they already do easierThey are made to feel bad or inadequate or like they aren't doing enoughLet's talk first about what makes it effective.www.jennkleiber.comIG @jenn_kleiber

In this insightful episode, Rob Brown delves into the world of accounting firm valuations and sales with Brannon Poe. They discuss the current trend of consolidation within the industry, driven by the influx of private equity money and the large number of accounting professionals nearing retirement age.Brannon shares his expertise on the key factors that make an accounting practice valuable and sellable, including profitability, owner hours, location, and specialization.The conversation explores the various types of buyers for accounting firms, such as individual buyers, private equity firms, and strategic acquisitions by other firms. Brannon emphasizes the importance of understanding a buyer's motivations and ensuring a good fit, as selling a firm involves more than just financial considerations – it's about preserving client relationships and taking care of staff.In addition, he also offers practical advice for firm owners looking to maximize their firm's value before a sale, including purging unprofitable clients, raising prices, and focusing on specific service lines. He encourages accountants with an entrepreneurial spirit to consider starting their own niche boutique firm, as it can provide greater control over building a sellable asset.Key Takeaways:Location, profitability, and owner hours are crucial factors in determining an accounting firm's value and saleability.Specialization and avoiding being a generalist firm increase efficiency and profitability, making a firm more attractive to buyers.Understanding the motivations and fit of potential buyers (individual, private equity, or strategic acquisition) is essential for a successful sale.Purging unprofitable clients, raising prices, and focusing on specific service lines can significantly increase a firm's value before a sale.Starting a niche boutique firm can be a viable option for entrepreneurial accountants, allowing them to build a sellable asset tailored to their vision.Quotes:"If you've got low owner hours and high profitability, you're going to command a more premium price for your firm, and it's probably going to sell faster." - Brannon Poe"If you're wired a certain way, you're going to do (DO WHAT?)it anyway. So just go ahead and do it sooner rather than later." - Brannon PoeView this episode in video on YouTube here:https://youtu.be/MZwyyxsbkUs◣━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━◢The Accounting Influencers Podcast, hosted by Rob Brown, is one of the world's leading shows for accounting leaders, professionals, finance specialists, software vendors, tech providers and influencers.

EPISODE 65: THIS WEEK'S GUEST - MIKE FINGERIn this episode, Mike highlights the three elements all small business owners should focus on when building a company for a future M&A exit: Are your business results desirable?  Will an acquirer see value and opportunity in what you have built? Can a buyer duplicate your results?  Can the buyer run the business without you? Can you document your results?  Is there a playbook written that can be followed once you are gone? GUEST BIO:Mike Finger is a serial entrepreneur and business advisor who's built and sold four companies.His first exit was not for the faint of heart and provided expensive lessons for the rest of his entrepreneurial career. Mike built his first company to 50 people, and after ten years of growth, he decided to sell. However, after several attempts to work out deals with multiple buyers, Mike's investment bank told him that his business was just not in a position to sell.Although this is something any decent investment bank or M&A Advisor should know before taking a company on as a client, Mike spent the next four years fixing the mistakes in his business and eventually sold the company. Resigned to not letting other small business owners go through his pain, today, Mike shares with us how to position small businesses for successful exits at Exit Oasis. We hope you enjoy the conversation with Mike Finger.WHERE TO FIND MIKE FINGER:LinkedIn

I advocate that all entrepreneurs should construct their businesses with the foresight that they might eventually consider selling them. I hold this viewpoint not because I assume that selling the business is everyone's ultimate objective, but because I firmly believe that adopting this perspective will lead to the development of robust processes and systems capable of enduring the test of time, regardless of your presence.   In reality, none of us can accurately predict the future, and in the unfortunate event that something were to happen to you or a crucial member of your business, would your enterprise be able to persevere? Establishing procedures and mechanisms that can ensure the continuous operation of your business is a prudent long-term strategy, and it might also make your business more appealing for potential buyers.   What you'll hear in this episode: [1:17] This is the reason why you ought to construct your business with saleability in mind, regardless of your intentions to sell. [2:45] The essential components of a business that can be marketed. [4:08] I'd like to share my enduring vision [6:23] Discover approaches to divest portions of your business while retaining control of your core operations.   If you like this episode, check out: Questions to Ask Yourself as a CEO You Accomplished Your Goal.

When looking to exit a business, selling it can be a great option for some entrepreneurs. But how can you ensure your business is sellable? Is there an emotional aspect to selling your business?

Lately, I've shared a lot of the behind-the-scenes of my marketing and messaging pivot that has happened within my business but what I haven't shared are the changes to my actual offer. This was not a small decision because I undid three and a half years of work to make my business more sellable and focused on what would give my clients better results. Today, I am going to share all of the changes I made in my business over the last three years. In order to give you the full behind-the-scenes, I need to back up quite a bit. I desperately wanted a product shop from 2016 and it was so far removed from the kind of business I was running. As time has passed, I have become more and more aware of the challenges associated with running one so I began to think about a digital shop. I saw a hole in the market for tools that help business owners enhance their client experience, present themselves more professionally, and speed up their sales process.  In January 2020, I launched the Creative Template Shop. I wanted to have everything available up front but I didn't necessarily only want to sell these things once off. I wanted recurring revenue and that was only possible with some sort of membership option. This worked so well and was so focused on the product itself which allowed it to be removed from Boss Project. To make this viable we really had to lock in on the process and we managed to! We used the audience we already had to create warm traffic and present the Creative Template Shop to them. We also used paid advertising early on to focus on cold leads. We presented the products as individual things that could be purchased but as soon as the website was clicked on, it was very clear that becoming a member would be so much more worthwhile and as a result, very few people bought one-off templates. And then everything changed.  Thank you for listening! Please subscribe, rate, and review The Strategy Hour Podcast on iTunes. Ratings and reviews are extremely helpful and greatly appreciated.

I hold the belief that every business owner should construct their business with the perspective that it may eventually be sold. This perspective isn't rooted in the assumption that everyone necessarily aspires to sell their business. Rather, I firmly contend that adopting this mindset empowers you to establish enduring processes and systems, capable of enduring the test of time, regardless of your presence.   Ultimately, none of us can foresee the future, and in the event of unforeseen circumstances affecting you or a pivotal figure within your business, would your business continue to thrive? Erecting systems and procedures that facilitate the ongoing operation of your business not only augments its long-term vitality but also opens the door to the possibility of making it marketable, thus benefiting other businesses.   What you'll hear in this episode: [1:17] Discover the rationale behind developing your business with sellability in mind, regardless of your intent to sell it. [2:45] Explore essential facets of a marketable business. [4:08] Gain insight into my long-term vision for Fitnancial Solutions.

“Burned out business owners, burn down businesses” - Lauren Goldstein I brought Lauren Goldstein, Business Advisor & founder of Golden Key Partnership, onto this episode because one of the things that we both agree on is how easy it can be to get your business to where you think you want it to go, and then you realize you've built yourself into a little bit of like a bougie prison.

I believe that all business owners should build their business from the perspective that it will one day be sold. I do not hold this opinion because I think that it is everyone's goal to sell their business, but I do believe that approaching your business with this mindset will make you create processes and systems that will stand the test of time, with or without you.    At the end of the day, none of us can predict the future, and if something were to happen to you or someone critical in your business, would your business survive? Building systems and processes that would allow your business to continue operating will be better for the long-term health of your business, and ultimately may be sellable to help other businesses.   What you'll hear in this episode: [1:17] Here's why you should be building your business to be sellable, whether you plan to sell it or not. [2:45] These are some key aspects of a sellable business. [4:08] My vision for Fitnancial Solutions long term.

Scott Duke is an M&A advisor and the founder of eleven companies. He started his first company while in university to pay for school without taking on a lot of student debt. The company was a painting company, similar to College Pro. When it comes to mergers and acquisitions, interest rates have a huge impact. When interest rates double, banks use a debt servicing ratio to determine how much they are willing to lend. This directly impacts the cash flow of businesses, as the same amount of money is needed to service debt. Scott's story is similar to most entrepreneurs as they start out small and then eventually get into larger ventures.Watch it on Youtube: https://youtu.be/8X2YPg0ulto--------------------------------------------------Contact Scott onLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottgordonduke/Website: https://opnroad.io/--------------------------------------------------How2Exit Joins ITX's Channel Partner Network!-Why ITX?Since 1998, ITX has created $5 billion in value by selling more than 225 IT businesses in 20 countries.
