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 your business from a position of power.

You have built a successful business, a successful team, and created something that is truly unique. Very few people on the planet have done that.

Your long term plan is to exit. Whether that is on the horizon or not, 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?

Have you ever asked yourself:

  • How do you maximise the price for an exit?
  • Is the chase better than the catch?
  • What don’t you know? 
Cohort 2 starting Q4 2024

After a super successful first batch of founders found clarity on their road to exit (and some doubling down on growth instead!), BoS is back in 2024 ready to help a new group of smart go-getters sort the wheat from the chafe as they journey towards the exit slip road ahead of them

You’ll find yourself in a group with other founders all facing the same challenges, dealing with the same issues, and focused on the same goal. 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 Exit group, we 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 generally 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 your exit, the better your outcome

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.

  • The Valuation
