This is becoming one of the biggest business stories that almost nobody is talking about.

Millions of business owners are approaching retirement, but many have no succession plan and no realistic buyer lined up. Studies suggest millions of businesses could change hands over the next decade, while a large percentage of owners still aren’t prepared for transition.

What we will discuss:

Why revenue is not the same as business value

Why many businesses are “owner-dependent”

The difference between a job and a sellable company

Internal succession vs outside buyers

What owners should be doing 5-10 years before exit

Workers' Compensation is often viewed as just another cost of doing business. But what if you're paying more than you should?

In this episode of Books & The Biz, Dan and Rich sit down with Bobby Giurintano of Premium Recovery Experts to discuss a problem many business owners don't realize exists: workers' compensation audit errors. Bobby shares why these mistakes occur, where overpayments are commonly found, and how businesses can identify opportunities to recover money that may have been lost for years.

If you're looking for practical ways to reduce costs, improve cash flow, and make sure you're not leaving money on the table, this is a conversation worth hearing.
