It is not mentioned in this item, but don't forget that selling your business to your employees IS an option, and is increasingly feasible in every respect. https://t.co/nTyOZq8pU0 @IndianaCEO @Institute_coop

Still more evidence of the sound policy behind employee ownership. #ESOP

Recirculating a great article by @darren_dahl @Forbes

"... the work done by organizations like the @oeockent, which has been educating business owners about the benefits of #employeeownership for years" @theNCEO

Why do some states have so many #ESOPs?

"When business owners sell to a 3rd party, that entity may consolidate, move the company elsewhere, lay off employees or change the company name. When owners sponsor an #ESOP, they have full control of the future of their organization.” @PLANADVISER https://t.co/2Y8sf1pSUe

Roughly 70% of family-owned businesses only last for a generation. An #ESOP can help ensure that these companies' legacies live on in their communities. https://t.co/F41SMuX1nV

[Joseph Blasi @JosephBlasi]

#EmployeeOwnership Fact: 28% of ESOP companies are in services and 28% are in manufacturing. See the facts by geography and year along with the total market value, total participants, and growth trends. Solid research based on USDOL: ESOPs by the Numbers https://t.co/RpTVhlUv6b

When Bill Roark founded @TorchHuntsville, he wanted to invest in and celebrate the smart, hard-working employees. The company's #ESOP does just that and is the reason the business stands out as a stellar success story. https://t.co/ZFjWNYFUvg
