”Helping owners who have pursued their dreams by taking the risks, both personally and financially, drives my passion.”
Jayne McQuillan, CPA, MBA, CEPA
Owner/President of Journey Consulting
Jayne wrote "The Value Journey" as a cautionary tale, sharing real-life stories about the devastating consequences of unplanned and unprepared exits and as an essential exit planning resource...a "how-to" guide for business owners who want to exit successfully.
With a wealth of experience working with privately held and family business owners and as an entrepreneur, Jayne understands the unique pressures, risks, and challenges you face leading your company.
"I thought exit planning was going to be easy!"
“I learned there were a lot more options [for exit] that I hadn’t considered. You have to work toward a goal and not an option. And the goal then gives you the options to do that.
Jayne understands business - the ups and downs we face and small business owner mentality."
