Business Succession Planning
When considering business succession planning, here are some questions to seriously consider:
- Would your business survive if you’re no longer here?
- What would happen to your business if you were incapacitated or unable to communicate?
- In an emergency situation, would your family or staff know how to operate the business, access critical business accounts, process orders, pay bills, and pay your employees?
- If you decided to retire next year, could the business survive without you and your expertise?
Succession planning is a process and failing to plan to transfer your business to a family member could result in extensive financial losses and hefty estate taxes for your heirs.
