Business Continuity and Succession Planning

Succession planning is important to private business owners at any stage of the ownership cycle, not just as they near retirement. We recommend that new distributor principals start thinking about a plan for exiting as soon as they get in. Some of the important reasons to complete a succession plan include:

  • Facilitating a smooth transition to next generation or existing management.
  • Protecting your investment in your business, which may very well be your retirement or your family inheritance.
  • Maximizing your business' market value to increase the ultimate selling price.
  • Responsibility to the suppliers for whom your business may be an exclusive distributor.
  • Ensure continuation of the business should the unexpected occur.

CMC can assist you in thinking through your options for exiting your business in the most profitable and personally beneficial maner. We will show you how to determine your company's value, estimate a market selling price, build your comapny value, and devise an exit strategy.

There is no one "right" succession plan, but there is a methodology for determining the best strategy for you.
