Common Questions

What Entrepreneurs Ask Us

How far in advance should I start planning my exit? +
Ideally 3-5 years minimum for QSBS qualification and optimal tax structuring. However, we've helped clients just 6 months from exit save millions. The best time to start was 5 years ago — the second-best time is today.
What is QSBS and how much can it save me? +
Qualified Small Business Stock (Section 1202) allows you to exclude up to $10 million in capital gains when selling C-corp stock held for 5+ years. On a $30M exit, that's $2-3 million in federal tax savings alone. We've structured strategies saving individual clients over $10M.
How is your compensation structured? +
We operate on a transparent fee structure with project fees for exit planning engagements and ongoing advisory relationships. The first strategy session is complimentary. Our clients typically realize 10-50× our fees through QSBS and tax optimization strategies alone.
Do you work with all industries or just technology? +
All industries — technology, healthcare, manufacturing, professional services, finance, and more. What matters is that you're a business owner planning a significant liquidity event. We've guided exits from $5M to $500M+ across every sector of the American economy.
What makes you different from my CPA or M&A advisor? +
We coordinate with them — not replace them. Your CPA handles compliance, your M&A advisor identifies buyers. We focus exclusively on your wealth: maximizing after-tax proceeds, protecting assets, and managing wealth post-exit. Consider us your financial quarterback orchestrating your entire advisory team.
