Are You Ready To Safeguard Your Business Interests?
If you own and operate a business, succession planning is essential.

Providing For Contingencies Is Good Business Practice
Many business owners have already addressed succession in their business plan. If you are just starting up a business, this is important to keep in mind. If you have an existing longtime business and have not addressed this critical matter, now is the time.
The process of business succession planning involves:
- Identifying who or what entity you wish to take on the operations of your business
- Creating a catalog or an inventory of assets and debts
- Determining the current and projected valuation of your business
- Addressing potential tax matters
You can also implement your preferred means of communicating the succession when it occurs with your family, business colleagues, employees and customers. When you build a business succession plan, you steer your business in the direction of your choice.
