“Here’s how to make your business work
for you (whether you’re in it or not).

A Tiny Business is a scalable, tangible asset that you
have options with. You can:
® Sell and walk away.
® Sell and stay on in some capacity (if your future
professional life is linked to the brand, there’s no

® Find a partner and work side by side.
® Find a partner to run the business and become a
silent stakeholder.
® Continue to own 100 percent and not participate by
hiring a CEO and putting key metrics, goals, and
reviews in place.
® Sell to your employees.
