Exit

You’re eventually going to exit your business.

We believe you should exit well, on your terms with confidence & ease.

You built a business you can feel proud of, with good people you care about. Of course, you want to finish strong, protecting what you’ve created over the years.

And yet, 70% of businesses end up in liquidation, rather than carrying on the good work their founder started.

Of those that do sell, 75% of owners profoundly regret that sale within the year.

Here at Doescher Group, we believe those numbers are unsatisfactory.

We believe that closely held businesses and their owners deserve more.

We’ve made it our mission to level the playing field for self-made business owners, allowing them to exit well, satisfied with their choices.

How we help

We are here to help. Regardless of where you are on your exit journey.

Whether you are looking to exit immediately, in the next few years or you are looking for best practices as you start your a business with the end in mind.

We are here to help. Because we believe in business owners.

We admire the grit, creativity, resourcefulness and passion they bring to the world.

And we are passionate about leveling the playing field in a landscape of buyers who are looking to get the best deal possible on what you’ve built.

“Having previously attempted to sell our company twice and failed, we knew we needed help. Without Doescher Group, we would have never achieved the outcome we did.”

Eventually is closer than you think.

Even if that day is far over the horizon for you, it’s never too early to start operating your business like the day is coming.

Future you will be grateful you were proactive.
Your legacy and your family will thank you.

WANT MORE THAN AN AUDIT AND A POINT IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION?

Are you looking for someone to come beside you and guide you through the process as part of your team.

Below are three typical entry points when we advise business owners, along with the ways we serve them to best achieve their goals as they exit their business.

    PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE

    You’re excited about the prospect of exiting at some point. You know you’re not ready now, but you love to plan ahead. We love this too, as time can be your biggest asset in the exit planning process.

    Clients here typically begin with an Exit Audit, as knowing where you are, allows you to chart your path to where you want to go next. 

  • 2 - 5 YEARS

    ACTIVATING YOUR PLAN

    You know that you’d like to exit in the near future. And you’re aware of how quickly a few years can speed by while you’re busy at the helm of your company.

    Our job is to come alongside you to help prepare what you’ve built for what’s next, as you continue to captain your ship. Once again, our Exit Audit is a great first starting point allowing us to understand your business in depth and chart your unique course to exiting well.

  • ASAP

    IMMEDIATE

    It’s time. The business you built is ready for its next adventure.

    This could be handing the reins over to someone within your organization or charting the unfamiliar seas of an external sale.

    We’re here to serve as a guide and adviser as you traverse this complex process.
