Business Progression Planning
Go here to take this 5 to 10-minute survey. We hope the immediate results will provide clarity about which of the Five Limitations to Progress you have nailed, and which you are concerned about.
Families that own businesses have unique opportunities and challenges. Deciding what to do with a privately owned business, how and when to do it, and why to do it is one of the most difficult and complex wealth transfers families must navigate successfully to avoid conflicts and strained relationships. Good family businesses do not stop; they progress to higher levels. Likewise, good families should have a “Business Progression Plan” that increases the opportunity for the family business and the family to become more valuable, and successfully grow the wealth for 100 years. We can help your family develop and apply “a business mentality, disciplines, and profit motivation” to build and preserve the family wealth.
The Anatomy of a True Start
Statistics show that 80% of businesses that go to market don’t complete a transaction. For those that choose succession without an external transaction, 70% don’t survive the transition to the second generation. Meanwhile, in pursuit of some form of exit or transition, countless entrepreneurs forfeit precious time, runway and financial resources, most of which is irrecoverable. We believe that a false start to the journey is the leading indicator of undesirable outcomes.
We’ve created a pre-engagement process to help entrepreneurs clarify and document their known priorities, alongside the areas that are murky in terms of facts, figures, and relationships.
The purpose of this pre-engagement process is threefold:
1. Ensure you know what problem you’re seeking to solve
2. Guide you to assemble a right-fit team, both technically and relationally, and to do so intentionally and proactively
3. Establish embedded checkpoints at which everyone rallies to gut check progress

You Can Have It All
By Kip Kolson
You’ve seen and heard the stories of dissension, fighting, greed, and legal actions when an inheritance is up for grabs. You may be thinking, “That won’t happen in our family.” Think again! It has been statistically proven that 70% of wealth is lost each time it transitions to the next generation. Two primary factors are loss of trust and breakdown in communications. Working with families of all sizes and levels of wealth, but especially with high net worth families for almost 25 years, Kip Kolson has learned that the only way to overcome these challenges is through a holistic, integrated financial and personal coaching program that builds a cohesive team of all living generations. He wrote this book to help families: Develop a shared family vision, mission, and purpose- Build strong family ties, teamwork, and legacy- Grow and protect family wealth through multiple generations- Ensure future generations can realize their financial needs and dreams- Retain family control over family enterprises and wealth- Experience the joy of helping causes they care about
” Train up a child in the way he should go and when
he is old he will not turn from it.”
