Real Questions from Real Women

November 05, 2024

I’m trying something new. After writing almost 100 original long-form articles, I noticed some patterns in the questions women business owners are asking me.

Questions like:

  • How do I know…?
  • Why can’t I…?
  • How do I get prepared for…?
  • What is the best approach for…?
  • When is the best time for…?
  • What’s next for my business?


So, going forward, I’ll pose a real question from a real woman and highlight the articles that address that question. What does this mean for you? Read on…

Today’s Question:

 

Want to ask me a business question and have it answered in these articles?

Going forward, I’ll periodically pose a real question from a real woman and highlight the articles that address that question. Yes – that real woman can be you!

I’ll call these types of questions ‘BlockbustHER BrainteasHERs’.

Now What?


I’ll still be writing periodic short- and long-form articles to address specific challenges for women business owners in their second act.

I’ve built my business as an advocate, and I specialize in helping women founders transition to their Third Act – when you’re ready to do the work you’ve always longed to do.

Work that lights you up… work that is your purpose instead of just a paycheck.  

Often, to get to your Third Act, you need to exit from your second act, preferably with funds from a sale that turns your business into a wealth-building tool.

Have you built a profitable and valuable business but instead of feeling like there's something missing, you’re feeling like there's something more?

If you’ve built an accounting firm, a law firm, a financial services firm, a psychology practice, or a specialty consulting firm that is generating $1 million to $10 million in annual revenue, you are in a prime market.

Larger firms and companies are growing by buying other firms. This has long been the case, but we’re seeing a higher rate than ever.

I wish it wasn’t the case, but I see too many women who actually lose their company instead of exiting on their own terms. The exit process is filled with pitfalls and complex issues – especially for women.

Your advocate, by definition, is looking out for your best interests. They are not taking a brokerage fee, commission, or equity. They are not motivated by how quickly the exit moves or the final dollar amounts. They want what you want – and will help you get it.

In my experience, women don't retire; they transition into a new stage of purpose and impact. Whether you are 40 or 60, the idea of retirement may not appeal to you. Just because you can retire doesn’t mean you’ll want to.

We can redefine ‘retirement’ and think of your eventual business exit as a ‘purposeful transition’.

Are you ready to leap into your Third Act and grab the whole cookie?

That requires a new way of thinking, new skills, a simple and elegant design, and an advocate by your side. Contact me to learn more.

A Note from Patty...

My life’s work is empowering high-achieving women business owners to fine-tune their operations and scale their revenue for strategic growth, creating real business value and emerging exit ready. That value can transform into wealth when they are ready to exit their company - and I believe that wealth in the hands of women elevates society as a whole.
