Ownership HandoffTM
The Modern, Seller-First Path to Passing Your Business On
The Ownership Handoff™ program lets owners sell the majority of their business now and the balance later, to a vetted military veteran successor. The successor first joins your company as an employee. Once they are working in the business, SBA rules allow a staged sale rather than an all-or-nothing exit. Folla Advisors has built a structured process around that path, which lowers cost and shortens the time it takes to sell.
Fun Fact:
Most sellers have never sold a business.
They are as new to the process as the buyer.
The choice is yours between a balanced, shared-risk approach or traditional adversarial approach.
Ownership HandoffTM
A streamlined way to transfer ownership of your business to a vetted military veteran who's ready to continue your legacy and has the leadership ability to succeed.
Seller-first exit path.
It provides a seller-first exit path for passing on your business. This means the entire process is designed with the goals and priorities of the current owner in mind.
Sell a majority now, the rest later.
You interview vetted veteran candidates and select one. Service credentials, leadership record, and business skills are validated before you ever meet them. Your chosen successor then joins the company as an employee and works alongside you before any ownership changes hands. You see how they operate, they learn the business, and neither of you is guessing at closing.
Select the buyer.
Our unique process ensures a smooth, cooperative transition to a vetted military veteran successor. Validated service credentials, successful leadership experience, and business skills. You interview vetted candidates, select one, and then transition your business to a veteran. Leave it in good hands.
Less time. Less cost.
A structured method removes the inefficiency that inflates the cost of selling. The structure also carries a direct savings, like the SBA requirement for a lender-ordered Quality of Earnings report on acquisitions of $3 million or more, lower legal costs, and other savings for both sides.
