Selling a business is one of the most important decisions an entrepreneur will ever make, yet many founders spend decades building their company and very little time preparing for an exit.
In Episode 18 of the Onward series, NewEdge Wealth Partner, Ghislain Gouraige, CEPA®, speaks with Tim Vorhoff, Co-Founder of CreoValo and author of Exit Right, about what it takes to successfully prepare for and navigate the sale of a business. We discuss why preparation matters, the risks of negotiating with a single buyer, the importance of building the right advisory team and how today’s M&A market—including private equity and AI—is shaping opportunities for business owners.
One of Tim’s key messages is that the best exits don’t happen by chance—they’re planned well in advance. Whether you’re considering a sale in the near future or simply want to better understand the process, we think you’ll find this conversation both practical and valuable.
