The Problem:
Most Small Businesses are not ready to sell
You’ve built something amazing—but would a buyer see it that way?
Are your systems documented?
Could someone else run the business tomorrow?
Do you know what it’s worth?
Could you sell it without regret?
Here’s the truth:
Only 20–30% of small businesses that go to market ever sell.
75% of business owners regret their sale within 12 months.
And most never build their business with a sale in mind.
Everything you need to make your business Sale-Ready
In this self-paced course, you’ll learn how to:
Get your finances, books, and valuation in order
Create systems and SOPs that make your business run without you
Attract the right buyer (and avoid the wrong ones)
List and market your business without compromising confidentiality
Negotiate with confidence and exit on great terms
Understand what buyers actually care about—and how to build toward that

Hi, I’m Paige Lorraine.
When I started my small business, I had no idea I should have been building it with selling in mind. But when the time came to step away, I figured it out — and sold successfully. Now, I want to give you the blueprint I wish I had from day one.
Buyers don’t just want great ideas — they want organized, efficient, and well-run businesses.
The Confident Exit helps you build those systems now, so whether you sell in six months or six years, you’re ready when the time is right.
