“Start with the end in mind.”
– Stephen Covey
“Start with the end in mind” is Stephen Covey’s 2nd Habit. Most entrepreneurs do not actually think about this when it comes to their business as a whole. We all exit our business one way or another; we may sell it, pass it down, close the doors, or run it until we die.
WE ALL EXIT OUR BUSINESS
That being said, you should put some thought into your exit strategy now.
“Begin With the End in Mind means to begin each day, task, or project with a clear vision of your desired direction and destination, and then continue by flexing your proactive muscles to make things happen. When you join The Strategic Exit Group, you will be working with like-minded entrepreneurs who will not only help you run your business better but you will get superior results from the same or less effort.
Hate your job and thinking about Starting a Business?
We can help you avoid wasting decades of time and tons of money and resources by avoiding a few simple mistakes that almost everyone makes when starting a business.
When starting a business there are a million things to consider.
For Example: The right name could make a break a company (as well as make it more valuable to a potential buyer down the road).
Create an AutoPilot Business, not another job for yourself.
When starting a business, you want to make sure you are not just creating a job for yourself. Sure you will have to grind to get things going the way you want, but a true business should run on autopilot whether you are working or not. If you got hit by a bus, would that be the end of your company?
Most people go into business for themselves for freedom. They want to make more money while working the hours they choose, and they want to be able to do the things they love to do. Somewhere along the lines, most entrepreneurs wake up to realize they are very far from that reality they wanted to create. There is an old joke about entrepreneurs being the only people willing to work 80 hours a week to avoid working a 40 hour a week job.
So if you are thinking about starting a new business (or have recently launched one), start out with the right foot forward by joining the group or getting personalized help.
