Ensuring the best plan is in place for transitioning ownership and leadership of a business can be overwhelming, especially when there are employees, family members, and vendors who all count on the business.
In this workshop, we will discuss the option of selling a business to employees using an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). We’ll learn:
- How an ESOP works and how to explore this option
- The benefits of an ESOP including an understanding of tax implications and succession planning
- How to determine if an ESOP is the right choice for you
