Summary:
In this episode, Ronald Skelton interviews John Seiffer, a business coach and author, about the concept of exiting a company without selling it. John shares his own experience of systemizing his company and reducing his involvement to just a few hours a month, which allowed him to focus on other interests and ultimately exit the company on his own terms. He explains the importance of defining outputs and creating systems within different areas of the business, such as production, sales, support, and growth. John also discusses the value of documenting standard operating procedures (SOPs) and utilizing technology to streamline processes. By implementing these strategies, business owners can increase the value of their companies and create more freedom for themselves.
