You have built a successful business. You have sacrificed weekends, missed family moments, and put everything into making it work. Yet, you have avoided planning for the fact that "we will all exit our business one day, one way or another."

Do you have a plan? Have you asked yourself why, when, and how you will exit? Without a plan, an exit will likely be suboptimal, likely even under duress. However, determining your exit objectives and building a plan on that foundation has a much higher probability of an optimal exit and leaving your business on your terms.

Getting to Exit is not another book about maximizing your sale price. It's about curating an exit that delivers the money you need, the timing you want, and the life you've been putting off. Through honest storytelling, practical tools, and a step-by-step process, David shows you how to plan for an optimal exit—one you won't regret—one you have earned.

In this book, you'll discover:

• How to uncover your true "why" for exiting, so you are not just chasing money
• Why you must calculate your real financial need before choosing an exit path
• Ten different ways to exit and their characteristics to help you select the right way to align with your exit goals
• How to understand the gap between where you are today and where you need to be to exit optimally
• Why working "on" your business instead of "in" will command a premium valuation
• The system for identifying your ideal buyer years before you're ready to sell
• Why most exits fail—and how to avoid becoming another statistic

And much more!

You don't have to figure this out alone. With a clear framework and the right tools, you can build toward an exit that funds the life you actually want. Your business deserves a strong ending. So do you.

If you want practical guidance, honest insights, and a roadmap that breaks with traditional thinking, then you'll love David Reid's Getting to Exit.
