Want to Become a
Built to Sell Coach?
Join Our Advisor Community
We are on a mission to shift the balance of power in favor of small business owners as they approach their exit.
Our methodology for applying the Built to Sell approach is called The Value Builder System™, which is offered through a global network of certified coaches. If you’d like to incorporate The Value Builder System™ into your advisory practise, we offer training to become a Certified Value Builder™, which is the professional credential we provide our licensees.
If your goal is to become your client’s most trusted confidante, becoming a Certified Value Builder™ will elevate your conversations to a new level. Quite simply, there is nothing more strategic than the value of your client’s business, and increasingly owners are focusing on growing their company’s value, not just their sales.
According to our partner The Exit Planning Institute, 76% of owners plan to exit their business in the next ten years and many will turn to an advisor for help. But these days, just about anyone can become a business coach.
And a lot of people have.
Some, like the late Bill Campbell, who coached Steve Jobs and Larry Page, have become their client’s most trusted confidante. Others have no business advising anyone, which is why earning a business coaching credential and leveraging a proven methodology is the fastest way to differentiate yourself from the fly-by-night coach.
