As a family business owner, you may feel:

Worried about how to simultaneously leave a healthy company to your successors and create a good retirement for yourself.

Trapped by the many transition decisions you face that you've never had to make before.
We believe you have successfully built an asset over the years that you can now leverage to support yourself and the next generation.

Transition the Company in the Best Way Possible - for You and Your Family
Our goal is to help you:

Legal and Financial Preparations
Help you prepare for the transition, such as guidance on creating legal documents, resolving tax issues, and setting up ownership structures.

Family
Harmony
Help foster a harmonious environment within the family on business matters, reducing conflicts and nurturing consensus on the direction of the transition.

Governance and Structure Changes
Collaborate on governance changes, such as implementing new policies, updating operational procedures, and restructuring departments to align with the transition goals.
You Have Two Main Priorities You Want to Fulfill
We understand how hard it can be to fund a great retirement while ensuring all your children receive their fair share of your legacy.

We provide True Wealth Planning to help business owners use the largest financial transaction of their career to create a purposeful life in retirement and smoothly pass on the business.

As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional, financial advisor Josh Ackerman provides comprehensive planning to help achieve your goals. He successfully completed the Business Exit Institute's "Exit Planning Boot Camp" training in 2020.

Josh has worked with other business owners who, just like you, struggle to ensure that all their children receive their fair share when perhaps only one child will inherit the business. He understands how fraught that situation can be and will help guide you through it, as he has done with his other clients.
