Organize & Simplify:

Planning for What’s Next

A thoughtful transition doesn’t start with documents—it starts with clarity.

Succession Planning for Business Owners

Business succession is more than choosing a successor or drafting a plan—it’s about preparing your business, your people, and your future for a thoughtful transition. Yet too often, succession planning is delayed or approached only when an urgent need arises.

At Feliciano Financial, we help you close the Trust Gap by shifting from reactive decisions to proactive preparation. Together, we organize the pieces, simplify the process, and clarify what a sustainable exit might look like—for you and for those who depend on your leadership.

 

What Is Succession Planning, Really?

Succession planning is the process of developing and implementing a strategy for how ownership, leadership, and responsibilities will shift in the future. It may involve:

– Grooming internal successors
– Selling to a third-party buyer
– Transferring to family members
– Merging with another organization
– Establishing key person continuity plans

It’s not about locking yourself into a decision today—it’s about giving yourself the space and tools to decide intentionally over time.

 

Why Succession Planning Gets Delayed

– Uncertainty about the timeline
“I’m not sure when I’ll retire” is one of the most common reasons succession planning is postponed.

– Avoidance of tough conversations
Discussions around leadership changes or family involvement can feel personal, emotional, or even risky.

– Lack of clarity around valuation or legal structure
If your business isn’t ready to support a transition logistically, the process can feel overwhelming.

 

Key Questions to Consider

– What role (if any) do you want after transition?
– How will key clients, employees, and partners be impacted?
– Have you identified any gaps in readiness—financial, operational, or emotional?
– Is your business attractive or viable to potential successors under current conditions

 

We Help You See the Bigger Picture

Succession isn’t just about what happens when you leave. It’s about how you lead toward that eventuality—without leaving people or possibilities behind.

We don’t replace your legal team or force a timeline. Instead, we help you organize your intentions, simplify your next steps, and clarify where a strategic advisor fits into the picture.
