Succeeding at Succession™ is organized into 3 modules that take advisors on a 9-stage journey from awareness to action in preparation for their eventual, but inevitable, exit from their business.

  • Module 1 – Get Real! – Gives you an understanding of the foundations of the succession planning process and the various myths, misunderstandings, misconceptions, and misinformation that surround that process.
  • Module 2 – Get Ready! – Helps you understand the extent to which you are prepared, financially, emotionally and from a timing perspective, for your inevitable transition or exit from our business, whether that is in view for you now or somewhere well down the road.
  • Module 3 – Get Rocking! – is where things start to happen as you consider various exit options, how to choose the right successor and how to put together a deal.

By the time you have completed the course, you will have fully documented your exit plan in your personal Playbook that describes how and when you will transition your business, and how you will ensure your legacy is the one you want and deserve.

“This course is a MUST DO for every advisor when they’re half our age. I thought I was so smart about everything regarding what to do when you decide to exit. As I kept working through all this stuff, it amazed me — all of the things that I hadn’t considered.”

“George Hartman is a wonderful man and teacher. The experience and knowledge he and his team deliver is exceptional. The rest is up to us.”

Frank P.

The Succeeding at Succession course helped me put a new lease on life of my business after 40 years in the industry. I came out of this experience with a more positive outcome than I expected as this process gave me a setting to deeply think about the future of my practice. It was a powerful and valuable environment having George Hartman at the table, with his depth of knowledge and his extensive experience in this area.

The weekly calls with George provided a unique setting for conversations with other advisors that allowed for different perspectives and instant feedback and the succession plan booklet gave the whole process traction ensuring actionable ideas were considered and documented.

I highly recommend anyone who wants to have the best possible outcome for their inevitable exit from their business take George’s succession course – there is nothing like it in the industry.”
