What is The Real Bottom Line?

Welcome to The Real Bottom Line – the podcast for business owners who want to exit on their terms.

I'm Wendy Brookhouse, creator of The Exit Lab and the Business Value Amplifier. In each episode, I talk with founders and experts about what really drives value in a business – and how to build a company that's ready to sell, whether that's in 2 years or 10.

We unpack what makes a business more attractive to buyers. We tackle financials, recurring revenue, customer satisfaction, and systems that take the business beyond you. No fluff. Just real conversations, tools, and ideas you can use right now.

If you're thinking about selling – or just want more control, more freedom, and more value – you're in the right place.
