How to Prepare Your Business for an Exit with Joshua Donnelly | Ep. 21 | My SBA Loan Pro Podcast

Описание: Joshua Donnelly, founder of Stone Canyon Advisors, shares his incredible journey from running a cattle operation in his teens to becoming a leading M&A advisor. He reveals why he left a successful investment banking career to build his own "platform business" and explains his unique "Acquirable Platform" designed to help business owners maximize their exit value.

In this conversation, we dive deep into:

The "Acquirable Framework": The four pillars (Efficiencies, Financials, Culture, Scale) that determine a company's sale readiness.
The Power of Preparation: How a 2-3 year preparation plan can double a company's sale value and create generational wealth.
Counterintuitive M&A Insights: The "un-Googleable" strategies, like why not all revenue is good revenue when preparing for a sale.
The Founder's Journey: Joshua's personal story of taking the leap, dealing with anxiety, and building a company worth copying for his sons.

If you're a business owner considering an exit or an entrepreneur on the precipice of a big decision, this episode is packed with actionable advice.
