Hint: It’s rarely about timing the market — and always about timing yourself.

There’s no perfect day to exit.

No magic number. No market signal that flashes “now.”

Because in the real world, the right time isn’t driven by external timing — it’s driven by readiness.

Most Sellers Wait Too Long

By the time some owners start considering a sale, they’re already fatigued. Revenues are plateauing. The asset feels static. Energy has shifted.

And while these are understandable reasons to sell — they’re rarely the best conditions to do it.

The strongest outcomes happen when the seller still has control, clarity, and leverage — not just urgency.

What Readiness Really Looks Like

     •           You’ve built a stable base — and growth will require a new kind of capital or capability

     •           You’re starting to look beyond the business or asset — emotionally and strategically

     •           You’re open to different models: full sale, JV, structured exit, or asset-light monetization

     •           You want the next chapter to be shaped, not forced

It’s Not About Leaving — It’s About Letting Go Right

A sale isn’t just a transaction — it’s a transition.

The best ones don’t feel like walking away. They feel like passing something forward — with upside for the next player and clarity for yourself.

Whether it’s a business, a real estate asset, or a legacy you’ve built — the right time to exit isn’t when you’re out of ideas.

It’s when you know you’ve taken it as far as it should go under your stewardship.
