4. When most owners exit, they are asked to continue to play a role in the successful transition of their company from one owner to another. Please select the role(s) you are comfortable playing after you exit your business.
Check all that apply:
lender: I would be willing to accept part of my sale proceeds over time in the form of a loan I make to the buyer
earn out: I would be willing to continue to run my business for several years after I sell my shares for the chance to receive an additional payment if I achieve a set of future goals agreed to with the acquirer
consultant: I would be willing to play the role of consultant being paid a fixed hourly/daily rate for my time to provide advice to the new owner
re-capitalization: I would be willing to continue to run my company and keep some of my equity in the business for a few years to enjoy a potentially larger exit down the road
none of the above. I want out the day I sell my business
