Most business owners spend years focused on building their company. Far fewer spend time planning what comes next.

In our latest blog, Andrew Fincher, CFP®, CEPA®, AIF®, Financial Advisor, explores a reality many owners face: selling a business is a financial transaction, but leaving a business is a personal transition. While valuations, succession plans, and market conditions matter, true readiness often comes down to three things: the readiness of the business, the readiness of your finances, and the readiness of you.

As trillions of dollars in privately held businesses are expected to change hands over the next decade, now may be the right time to ask an important question: If the opportunity to transition presented itself tomorrow, would you be ready?

We’re getting closer.

Construction on our new office space is well underway and it’s exciting to see everything starting to come together. What was once just framing and blueprints is now beginning to feel like the future home of VLP- purple walls and all.

We’re officially halfway there!

A hot day on the course but a great afternoon all around.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Annual Golf Clinic at Lansdowne Resort. From short game practice and putting to drinks and conversation afterward, it was a fun way to spend time together (even in the heat).

We always appreciate the opportunity to connect with clients in a more relaxed setting and are grateful to everyone who came out and made it such a great event.

QUOTED! Sean Beznicki, CFA, Director of Investments, was quoted on InvestmentNews.com - Growth stocks are hot again but advisors caution against purging value plays to get back on bandwagon

Check out the full article here: Beznicki, Sean. "Portfolio managers should look beyond book-to-price, which often misses value in an intangible-driven economy. Instead, focusing on free cash flow yield offers a clearer view of a company’s ability to generate sustainable cash returns."
