Step 2 - Vision for the future

start thinking about how to transfer your business to ensure that your wishes are respected
determine your needs and incentives to stay motivated
clarify your expectations to avoid disappointments and misunderstandings while mitigating conflicts
define your personal objectives and take action to achieve them
define your business goals to be able to share them with buyers
