When this is not done properly it is the single reason why the exiting party fails to achieve what they wish.<\/p>\n<p>There are a number of alternatives to exiting. The most common is seen to be a business sale, however there are other options that could be easier, particularly if one of the goals is to create a legacy rather than generate a cash value.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;4 step Section&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;30px||||false|false&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_4,3_4&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Planning Row&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_enable_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_width_all=&#8221;1px&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#d9dfe4&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;margin: auto;&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;66px&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div class=\"numcircle-grey\">2<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;3_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#333333&#8243; header_2_font=&#8221;|300|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#0055a5&#8243; header_3_text_color=&#8221;#333333&#8243; background_enable_color=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;|10px||10px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Planning<\/h2>\n<h3>As mentioned previously the most important step in exiting a business is planning.<\/h3>\n<p>Any planning stage starts with goals and objectives.
