I founded Bizleavable with a mission to "Overhaul America's Economic Engine - One Small Business at a Time" by empowering small business owners who often face an uncertain future due to limited access to essential resources. Over the years, I’ve directly worked with hundreds of owners and reached thousands more through workshops and curriculum, helping them to take back control of their time, their lives, and their businesses. To ensure these vital resources are available to businesses of all sizes, I’ve partnered with economic development agencies, chambers of commerce, and government-funded organizations, bringing Wall Street sensibilities to Main Street entrepreneurs. With nearly 50% of business owners at or near retirement age, the demand for these services is greater than ever. That’s why we’re expanding accessibility through technology, providing the strategies and support necessary for a successful business exit, a rewarding next chapter, and a lasting legacy.
Having personally faced the challenges of entrepreneurship—and witnessing preventable business failures among entrepreneurs whose futures were relying on them being able to sell when the time came—I recognized the urgent need for a comprehensive, yet accessible, approach to exit planning, one that addresses both the emotional and financial aspects. Bizleavable is committed to helping small and mid-sized businesses navigate the complexities of succession planning, maximizing value, and leadership transition. Our vision is a future where every business owner can exit their business personally fulfilled, financially secure, and capable of achieving the legacy they desire.

Over 3 million businesses owned by baby boomers are about to test those statistics just when they're getting to retirement age...not to mention that 1 in 2 owner are over age 50.
