Build Value. Protect Wealth. Exit on Your Terms.
We Started With a Simple Idea: Business Owners Deserve Better.
In 2008, the Business Owners Council was founded on the belief that entrepreneurs and business owners were underserved at one of the most critical moments of their professional lives — planning their exit.
Inspired by John Brown's landmark book 'How to Run Your Business So You Can Leave It In Style,' BOC was built to give business owners access to the kind of expert, coordinated guidance that was previously only available to the largest corporations.
