#1 – Start with evaluating how much you need to exit.

Determine your wealth gap by taking the amount you need to start your next chapter minus what you have today. This is what the sale of your business needs to yield to you.


Now you understand how much you need and you know your business has value. But how do you know how much your business is really worth today?

Are you ready to see the value of your unique business and receive a specific plan to improve its value?

#1 – Calculate Your Wealth Gap

Every one of us has a goal of what we need to start our next chapter in life. Our wealth gap is the difference between our net worth and our desired goal.

Disclaimer: KeyBright LLC is not a registered investment or tax advisor or a broker/dealer. This content is for informational purposes only and it is important to consult your financial planner before making any investment decision or otherwise.

One approach is to apply the rule of 4, which states that you can take out 4% of your assets each year to last for the rest of your life.
– Determine how much money you’d like to spend each year after the sale of the business.
– Divide this number by 4% to get your desired savings goal.
– Subtract your current net worth from your desired savings goal to calculate your wealth gap.
For example, if you need $250K a year every year after the business, take $250K / 4% = $6.25M.
If you have $2M in net worth, take $6.25M – $2M = $4.25M.
$4.25M is your wealth gap and what you need the sale of your business to yield to you (after taxes, brokers fees, CPA, etc).
