WHAT WE DO

WHAT WE DO

We help business owners take their companies, careers and lives to the next level by using the extraordinary tools of an ESOP and ownership culture.

EXIT & SUCCESSION PLANNING

Use an ESOP to sell all or part of your ownership shares and get cash, tax-deferred or tax free, without giving up control. Hands down the best way to sell a business and create a succession plan on your own terms. 

HIGH-ENGAGEMENT OWNERSHIP CULTURE DEVELOPMENT

WHAT IS AN ESOP?

An ESOP is a special Legal Trust designed to hold company stock in retirement accounts on behalf of employees.

 

It was created by Congress in 1974 with substantial tax incentives to encourage owners to provide the benefit to their employees.  Best practices developed over decades have turned the ESOP into a powerful, multi-purpose business tool.
