Apply for the Exit Roadmap Scholarship

Each quarter, Atlantic Coast Business Brokers selects one business to receive a free professional valuation and one year in our Exit Roadmap Program—a $7,500+ value.

Why We Created the Scholarship

At Atlantic Coast Business Brokers, we know many business owners want to prepare for the future but aren’t sure where to start—or can’t justify the investment until they’re ready to sell. The problem is, waiting often means leaving money on the table.

That’s why we created the Exit Roadmap Scholarship Program: to give back to the small business community by helping one company at a time build a stronger, more valuable, more sellable business.

What the Winner Receives

The winner of the Exit Roadmap Scholarship will receive:

✅ A full Broker Opinion of Value (business valuation report).
✅ A baseline Sellability Score assessment.
✅ Enrollment in our Exit Roadmap Program for 12 months, including:
- Quarterly updates on valuation, financial metrics, and Sellability Score.
- A personalized action plan tied to key value drivers.
- Broker-led insights into industry & market conditions.
- A branded year-end report showing progress toward your exit goals.

Why it Matters

Past clients who’ve followed the Exit Roadmap have seen valuation growth of 20%–60% within just a few years. One client entered the program with a valuation of $2.1M; after implementing action items like hiring a GM and diversifying their customer base, their valuation rose to $3.4M in two years.

This program isn’t about a quick sale; it’s about building the kind of business buyers compete for.
