Episode 10 – When to Open the Door to Exit Planning with Ashley Micciche
Ashley Micciche is the CEO at True North Retirement Advisors. She helps business owners exit their business and retire with financial security, letting them focus on running their business while she plans the exit. Ashley is a second-generation family business owner, so she understands the plight of the day-to-day business owner trying to do everything. Her first career plan was to be a river raft guide, but then she went to business school and discovered helping people retire is where she wanted to be.
In this episode, we discuss:
• How exit planning looks different for every business and business owner
• Starting to think about exiting your business even 10 years before you want to
• Working with an advisor to take care of all the details is important in order to keep running your business
• Building a team to work on the exit with you- not leaving it all up to one advisor I hope you will find this episode as exciting and informative as I have. Please let me know your thoughts!
