Freedom Manifesto

The fun is gone. It now feels like work.

You started your business for the freedom to do what you want when you want. The freedom to live anywhere, indulge your passions and wear flip-flops to work if you feel like it—all the while making as much money as you deserve without artificial pay grades holding you back. 

The problem is, somehow, running your company is starting to feel gruelling. Your vacations are sparse and too short because customers expect you to be there. Dealing with employee hassles and busywork sucks up most of your day. You feel guilty for not being at work and even guiltier for being at work when you should be home. The fun is gone. It now feels like work.

It’s time to get your life back.

My purpose here is to provide you with strategies, techniques, warnings and advice on how to turn your company into a more valuable asset, one you could sell – when you’re ready.

If you build it right, you can run your company knowing you’re sitting on a valuable asset, cherry-pick the projects you get involved in, take great vacations and, when the time comes, sell it for a premium.

Over the next two weeks I will share valuable information you can use to make your business more valuable and gain more freedom in the process.

Over the next 7 mails, I’m going to show you a step-by-step process for turning your business into a sellable company and ultimately, if ready, how to sell it for more. These insights are based on hundreds of interviews with business owners that increased their nosiness value.

What you won’t get

I won’t spend a lot of time talking about how to start a business. There are plenty of good resources already out there for newbies and wannabes. I assume you have a business, customers, receivables, rent and all the other unglamorous stuff that goes along with having created a real business. If you’d like to turn your existing business into a valuable company, you’re in the right spot.

So, are you ready to build a more valuable business?
