The Real Chad Peterson Show

$68 TRILLION is moving from Baby Boomers to the next generation.
$10 trillion of that is tied up in privately owned businesses.

The problem?

Most of those businesses will fail during transition.

In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, Chad Peterson sits down again with Jay Aldebert to break down:

• Why children rarely take over the family business
• The real reason legacy transitions fail
• How “gut feel” founders create fragile companies
• Why people-dependent businesses sell for lower multiples
• The difference between EBITDA and real cash flow
• How to systemize a company for 6–7x valuation
• Why founders accidentally sabotage their own exit
• The hidden emotional reason kids don’t want the business
• How to build a company that survives you

Jay reveals how his firm works with over 7,000 businesses per year and what it really takes to turn a founder-dependent company into a system-driven machine.

If you own a business…
If you plan to sell…
If you want your business to survive your exit…
