SUMMARY:2026 Business X-Change - 10/14 Sponsored by Silvertree
DESCRIPTION:BUSINESS X-CHANGE PRESENTATION   OCTOBER 14\, 2026\n\n \n\nBusiness X-Change meets regularly throughout the year.  Our October X-Change will be held at the Portage County Business Council office. Business X-Change allows business owners and their employees the opportunity to discuss pertinent topics\, learn from local industry leaders and\, most importantly\, learn from each other. \n\n \n\nThere is no cost to attend. Coffee and Danish will be provided.\n\n \n\n\n\nTitle: "Value Before the Deal: Why Owners Lose Options Long Before They Sell"\n\n \n\nPresented by:\n\n\n\nJason Glisczynski\, CFP \, CPWA \, CEPA  \n\nManaging Partner of Silvertree\n\n       \n\nAbout the Program:  Most business owners believe the value of their company is determined when they decide to sell.\n\n\n\nIn reality\, many of the factors that impact value\, transferability\, succession\, and future flexibility are established years earlier. Health events\, owner dependence\, leadership gaps\, market changes\, and uncoordinated planning can quietly reduce options long before an owner is ready to transition. In this engaging Business X-Change presentation\, Jason Glisczynski will share real-world stories\, practical insights\, and a simple framework business owners and executives can use to evaluate their company's readiness\, identify hidden risks\, and strenghten long-term enterprise value. Whether a transition is years away or not on the horizon at all\, attendees will leave with actionable ideas to build a stronger and more transferable business.\n\n\n\nKey Takeaways: \n\n- Understand why profitable businesses are not always transferable businesses.\n\n\n\n- Learn the hidden factors that cause owners to lose options long before a transition occurs.\n\n\n\n- Discover the three questions every owner and leadership team should be asking today.\n\n\n\n- Identify practical steps to reduce owner dependence\, increase readiness\, and preserve future flexibility.\n\n\n\nAbout our Presenter: \n\nJason Glisczynski\, CFP \, CPWA \, CEPA  is Managing Partner of Silvertree and works with business owners\, executives\, and successful families throughout Central Wisconsin. He specializes in succession planning\, business transition strategy\, enterprise value growth\, and aligning personal wealth with business outcomes. Jason is the author of Planning With Purpose and helps owners navigate the decisions that impact both the value of their business and the future they hope to achieve after it.\n\n\n\nWhat is Business X-Change? Allows business owners and their employees the opportunity to discuss pertinent topics\, learn from local industry leaders and\, most importantly\, learn from each other.
