A business parable about how to create a start-up that won't trap you when you want to sell it. According to John Warrillow, the number one mistake entrepreneurs make is to build a business that relies too heavily on them. Thus, when the time comes to sell, buyers aren't confident that the company-even if it's profitable-can stand on its own. To illustrate this, Warrillow introduces us to a fictional small business owner named Alex who is struggling to sell his advertising agency.

Publisher's summary
Eighty percent of small businesses never sell....
If you own a business and plan to retire one day, the sale of your business must be part of your retirement strategy. Are you like most business owners with all of your net worth tied up in your business? If you only have 20% chance of selling your business, that can be devastating. Even if you are lucky enough to be in the minority who do sell, will you get what you need from the sale to live the lifestyle you want to live?
The good news is, The Ultimate Sale, written by certified exit planning advisor Goodbread, owner of FinanciallySimple.com, can help you beat those staggering odds and build your business for its final sale by teaching you:
- What business appraisers look for when they assess your company’s value
- Why growing your business’s value is more important than increasing its sales
- What your business’s intangible assets are and how they could be more valuable than tangible assets
- How making your business scalable can turbocharge its growth
- The surprising and vital role "human capital" plays in the ability to sell for maximum profit
- What you can expect during the sales process
- Who you need on your business’s advisory team and why these key players are worth their rates
Discover proven exit strategies business owners have successfully used to sell their businesses and rise above the statistics. The Ultimate Sale is your guide to navigating business sales, mergers, and buyouts, and prepares you and your business for the next chapter in your life.

When pioneering business journalist and Inc. magazine editor at large Bo Burlingham wrote Small Giants, it became an instant classic for its original take on a common business problem - how to handle the pressure to grow. Now Burlingham is back to tackle an even more common problem - how to exit your company well. Sooner or later, all entrepreneurs leave their businesses and all businesses get sold, given away, or liquidated.

People starting out in business tend to seek step-by-step formulas or rules, but in reality there are no magic bullets. Rather, says veteran company-builder Norm Brodsky, there's a mentality that helps street- smart entrepreneurs solve problems and pursue opportunities as they arise. Brodsky shares his hard-earned wisdom every month in Inc. magazine, in the hugely popular "Street Smarts" column he cowrites with Bo Burlingham. Now they've adapted their best advice into a comprehensive guide for anyone running a small business.

In Never Finished, Goggins takes you inside his Mental Lab, where he developed the philosophy, psychology, and strategies that enabled him to learn that what he thought was his limit was only his beginning and that the quest for greatness is unending.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

This book must be a joke
Love when an author pays to write a book and self publishes it. This is what you get -garbage.
Oh just tell your employees to sell more and increase profits -yes that was some advice.
Hire a cop certified financial planner to help sell your business. WTF.
