What is Built to Exit?
Built to Exit is Dean DeVries's business. It does two things: exit-readiness consulting, and done-for-you HubSpot builds and revenue operations systems. The aim is a company that runs on systems instead of on its founder, with revenue data a buyer can verify. That supports two kinds of exit: stepping out of the day-to-day, or selling the company. Dean has completed over 200 HubSpot builds. HubSpot builds are delivered by Dean and his team at Sales Momentum (salesmomentum.io), where he is co-founder and CTO.
When should a founder start exit-readiness work?
Built to Exit recommends starting 12 to 24 months before a sale, a raise or a succession. Work starts with an exit-readiness assessment, followed by a scoped build.
