Entrepreneur and experienced life coach Jerome Myers seeks to guide successful business founders and owners through the process of selling their businesses in his new white paper.
A successful business owner and entrepreneur, Jerome Myers knows the thrill of chasing your dreams and realizing your goals. He also knows how challenging selling a thriving business can be for so many founders. In fact, a study by Wells Fargo found that 75% of business owners who sell regret the decision. Myers’s white paper entitled “Beyond the Exit” highlights the challenges top-performing entrepreneurs and business founders face as they exit their businesses and struggle to determine what the next phase of life holds for them.
Through his podcasts, masterminds, workshops, and financial advisor coaching program, Jerome Myers has assisted many business owners with their unique challenges in their leadership roles. The hurdles change as they transition from having a dream and launching a small start-up to expanding their company and eventually selling it. As Myers and many of his clients have discovered, the most challenging step to navigate along the journey can be achieving success and selling your company. As Myers refers to it, the Founder’s Exit Paradox can leave newly-exited operators (NEOs) feeling unfulfilled and directionless. Unfortunately, many of these founders decide to suffer in silence because they believe they are the only ones experiencing this phenomenon.
“The goal of building a thriving business and selling it so you can live your dream life looks amazing,” remarked Myers,” until you cross the finish line. For many very successful people, the finish line is where it all falls apart. They lack the direction and purpose that has been a driving force in their lives for so many years. Rather than hiding these uncomfortable feelings, I want to draw attention to them and normalize the conversation so that they can successfully navigate their exit paradox. We want to end the senseless suffering of these founders.”
Myers’s white paper, “Beyond the Exit: Preparing for The Founder’s Exit Paradox,” focuses on the mistakes founders make when selling their business. It provides guidance for overcoming common doubts and questions that arise after achieving success and discovering it was an illusion. The white paper is available for download at www.theexitparadox.com. Myers also offers I Took the Red Pill TM coaching to guide individuals through their journey of self-discovery to find meaning, direction, and purpose in their post-exit lives.
“The first step in addressing the Exit Paradox is starting a conversation,” remarked Myers. “Business gurus and top performers aren’t used to not having the answers or needing to ask for help. And what they probably don’t know is that many other people in the same position feel the same way. In fact, many business owners regret selling their businesses. But, this uncomfortable position can be an opportunity to pursue new dreams and ambitions and discover what they want out of life.”
As a coach for wealth advisors, Myers has helped many individuals realize their dreams. Now, he strives to help them discover what their lives can be like after they achieve those dreams. To find out more about Jerome Myers or to sign up for one-on-one coaching, visit www.JeromeMyers.co.
