Business Succession
One of the important decisions a business owner must face is when and how to step out of the business.
It’s never too early to develop a succession plan that will ease the transition to new owners, management, or family. Discussing your thoughts with your financial, tax, and legal advisors will lead you to a course of action.

Considerations for a succession plan
- You can sell your business.
- You have control of your interest or business assets until you are ready to let go.
- You decide how much or how little you want to sell.
- You choose when you want to sell.
- You can sell your interest during your lifetime, and receive cash to use for whatever you choose — retirement, a new business venture, that trip around the world, charitable donations, or a fund for distribution to your beneficiaries.
- You can gift your business.
- You can pass on your business to whomever you choose, such as family, colleagues, friends, or charitable institutions.
- You can provide stipulations about how this process is managed.
Business succession planning is difficult for a variety of reasons.
We work closely with a number of CPAs and attorneys that specialize in business succession plans. Prism’s goal is to ensure your years of hard work will be transitioned effectively to maximize future returns.
