Our Methodology

Value Acceleration Methodology™️ (VAM)

What It Is

The Value Acceleration Methodology™ (VAM™), created by the Exit Planning Institute, is the nationally recognized framework for exit planning. It integrates personal, business, and financial planning to create one unified strategy.

The 3 Gates of Readiness

  • Personal Readiness

    Are you emotionally and personally prepared for life after business?

  • Financial Readiness

    Are your finances aligned to support your lifestyle post-exit?

  • Business Readiness

    Is your company attractive, transferable, and operating without you?

The 4 Capitals of Value

By intentionally building these capitals, your business becomes more valuable and more transferable.

  • Leadership, culture, and talent.

  • Systems, processes, IP, and documented operations.

  • Brand strength, client loyalty, recurring revenue.

  • Reputation, community, and industry relationships.

Why It Matters

Without this methodology, most owners:

● Exit under pressure.

● Leave 20–50% of potential value on the table.

● Struggle with purpose after the sale.

With Value Acceleration, you:

● Build value every year.

● Create multiple exit options.

● Transition confidently into your next act.
