The Road to Exit: A BoS Mastermind Group

You’ve read the gushing exit stories, but what is it really like to sell your business?

What do you need to do and what are the traps to avoid? Join us for honest, frank conversations with founders on the same path as you and partake in Q&As with exited founders who share the real experience.

Exit from a position of power

Very few people on the planet have done what you have done; build a successful business, a successful team, and create something that is truly unique.

Your plan is to exit. With a sale is on the horizon how do you prepare the team, the business, and – most importantly of all – yourself so you can thrive before, during, and after this momentous event?

You’re probably asking yourself:

• How do you maximise the price for the exit?
• Is the chase better than the catch?
• What don’t you know? 

Starts on June 2024

We’re bringing together a unique group of founders all facing the same challenges, dealing with the same issues, and focused on the same goal. Selling and exiting your business is a life changing event. There are books and blog posts that talk about the mechanics of it, often writing after the dust has settled, yet the experience is unique for each and every founder and business. 

In this Mastermind group, we will meet monthly to face these challenges together, sharing insights, and helping each other. Most importantly of all, we’ll be supporting one another to create the most value we can.

You will be among founders who expect to exit their companies within a six month to three year time frame. We want to help you exit your business from a position of power.

The earlier you start thinking about exits, the better the outcome. If you think this might be for you, or would like to know more, get in touch.

We want to be absolutely sure that we have the right people in the group so if you are interested, let’s understand a little bit about you and what we have in store.
No obligation, completely in confidence.
