KEY TAKEAWAYS
- During the start-up and scale-up process, many business owners discover that the freedom they were hoping for in running their own business, is scarce. The true freedom comes from the exit.
- There are two types of exit. You can exit but choose not to be involved in the day-to-day running of the operations themselves. The second exit is the "life changing exit", and involves selling completely.
- Never assume that the world will look the same in the future as it does right now. Circumstances can change in a moment, so instead of looking to the very long term, try to shorten your plans.
- Plan your exit from the beginning. It doesn't have to be your sole focus, but it helps to have a North Star that you can always be working towards.
BEST MOMENTS
'The freedom really comes from the exit'
'These are all external things that you need to evaluate'
