   Northwest Exit Planning Association Nepa

   Nov 2023 — Present

   The Northwest Exit Planning Association (NEPA) is a professional network dedicated to providing education and resources to support business owners and advisors in executing successful business exits and transitions. Nearly 80% of businesses in the U.S. fail to sell (Exit Planning Institute), primarily due to inadequate exit planning. A lack of preparation means that many owners wait until unforeseen events, like health or personal issues, to consider their options—limiting their business\'s attractiveness to potential buyers. By planning early and setting up processes that sustain the business independently, owners increase their chances of finding a buyer when the time is right.NEPA members are committed to building effective teams with a shared Vocabulary, Framework, and Process to guide clients in developing and implementing a Master Plan that benefits businesses, stakeholders, and family legacies alike. Through regular member meetings, NEPA will offer networking, education, and skill-building opportunities for its members to share best practices and innovative solutions in exit planning.
