Eventually, all businesses must be transferred – or they will close.  Most entrepreneurs prefer their legacy continues when their desire for increased free time, declining health, or worse, eventually require an ownership transfer.  Byron prepares business owners for that final test of their greatness.

Most owners of small businesses prefer to transfer their legacy to one or more key employees.  But how?  When?  And where does the money come from to fairly compensate the founder for the risks and enormous personal capital invested over the decades?  The future of the company depends on good answers to those important questions, as well as the strategic preparation and successful execution of the sequential steps required to convert ideas into action.

Byron and his team of business transition experts at The McFarland Group have decades of experience guiding business owners and their executive teams to think through available options, formulate a transition plan, and then facilitate a transfer for the benefit of all stakeholders.

About Byron

Byron McFarland has helped hundreds of entrepreneurs prepare for an orderly transition of the management and ownership of their businesses since 1985.  He creates a vision in the Business Owner’s mind about an optimized exit strategy when, by choice, declining health, or worse, they are no longer able to nurture their baby.  Byron creates peace of mind by designing succession plans that are structurally sound and properly financed, whether the transition has to occur as the result of an unexpected sudden crisis, or can play out over several years.

Byron enjoys standing in clear moving water casting to rising trout.  Tight lines, my friend!
