GWCPA focuses on accounting and succession planning for multi-generational businesses. My intent with this Youtube podcast is to spotlight the courageous and often unheralded work of you, the business successor.
Titled "The Art of Succession", the interviews will be posted on
youtube.com/@gwcpas
Our primary goal for the show: Why did you buy a business rather than build one, and what has that foundation enabled you to do?
Our audience is twofold: Business owners looking to pass along their business and avoid some of the pitfalls, and employees in the process of stepping into ownership and learning what it takes to lead an established business.
Here is an example of some of the questions we might be covering:
- How did you and your seller/buyer meet?
- What started the conversation about succession planning?
- How long was the process from start to finish?
- How much information were you given access to before the transition?
- What sort of issues did you discover afterwards that you had to work through?
- What have you kept the same in the business?
- What have you been able to change and improve?
