You built the business. But how much of the business still depends on you?

Maybe you're working sixty hours a week and can't imagine taking a real vacation. Or maybe things are going pretty well. You have good employees, make decent money, and can get away when you want to. But when something important happens, they still call you.

It's not "just what owners do". It's what they do when their businesses own them.

Not only does it make your life stressful right now, but it puts your company at risk on a regular basis. And it certainly isn’t why you decided to get into the business.

The Business Value Booster Method is for established small-business owners who want their companies to do a better job of supporting the goals they had for their lives, intead of consuming them. It starts with a Reality Check: What do you actually want from owning this business? How does the business need to change to meet that?

From there, you'll identify the obstacles that keep a business dependent on its owner, remove the ones that matter most, and make improvements without trying to rebuild the entire company at once.

There are no secret steps, and no 10x transformations. The test is much more concrete: Can you leave, and does the business continue to work?

This isn't about abandoning the business or a "Four-Hour Workweek". It means that you can spend your time where it matters most to you, sometimes working on the business, sometimes doing the things you really want to do outside the business. The Method moves your business towards becoming easier to own, more resilient when life intervenes, and more valuable when you decide to call it a day. Why wouldn't you do this? Because you plan to get to stuff like that someday, when things aren't so busy. That Someday will never come. But another one will, one that forces your hand. Will you and the business be ready for that?

Don’t wait for Someday. You don’t usually get to choose that day. Someday chooses you.

Will you be ready?
