Hello business owners!
My name is Fred, and I’ve been an IP, technology, and transactional lawyer and entrepreneur for over 15 years. My life’s work is helping innovative entrepreneurs build, grow and exit their businesses safely. Over the course of my career, I’ve discovered that ideal exits are rare, and require preparation. That’s why I created Fit to Exit: so that every entrepreneur can have the tools and strategies needed to design their own ideal exit safely and effectively. I know you have a bigger picture you’re working toward. Let’s get you fit to exit so you can realize it!
I’ll be your primary instructor in the Fit to Exit course, and I’ll be joined by a world-class team of guest instructors including:
- elite lawyers,
- certified business valuators,
- tax experts,
- life-planning professionals,
- venture capitalists and investors, and
- successful entrepreneurs,
all here to take on every challenge you could possibly have in designing your ideal exit so that you and your dreams can finally be at the heart of the process. Check out our team here.
To your exit,
