The largest small business ownership transfer in American history is underway. Rural communities are especially exposed. In some states, small businesses account for more than half of all employment. Succession planning is so important. @McKinsey: https://t.co/gtvT0uaHSi
By 2035, 6 million small businesses will face ownership transitions as boomers retire. $5 trillion in enterprise value. 12 million jobs at risk.
Most exits today end in closure, not a sale.
Is your business succession-ready?

@FoxNews: https://t.co/0phx2oTw3I

Supporters: put pressure where it belongs.
Critics: make continuing resolutions the permanent default.
