Want to learn more about how we work with businesses in the horticulture industry? Check out our Succession & Exit Planning Mastery Series with AmericanHort! These prerecorded classes consisting of three classes hosted by a panel of experts ranging from CEPAs, accounting, legal, financial planning, and organizational development professionals who will help you form a succession plan for your business.

There’s one indisputable fact—100% of owners eventually will exit their business. In the horticulture industry, there are many stories of successful transitions to new owners and to family members in the horticultural industry. However, in these times there are even more stories of unnecessary closures and liquidations, family disagreements, disasters, and owners passing away without a business continuity plan in place or even a will. The critical difference is that planning leads to successful outcomes.

What people are saying…

  • “My expertise is in the nursery business and running a nursery. I knew there would be many things in succession planning I was unaware of and we chose PivotPoint. They have kept our team of advisors and us on the same page, and we have been pleased with the process, our future business, financial and personal planning. It has been great seeing it all come together, and we see the light at the end of the tunnel.”

    Dan Batson, Owner of GreenForest Nursery in Perkinston, MS

  • “I am running a successful and growing operation, but we lacked a successor. That necessitated setting up my company to succeed without me at the helm. I think we have been very successful in navigating that, and PivotPoint was a big part of that process as we have been preparing the company for eventual sale to a third party. Their approach and expertise resonated with me. I knew I would need your guidance in keeping my key management team and me on point, and now I feel I am at a stage in the value-building process where I feel comfortable and well-positioned. We are ready to go to market if we had to, and PivotPoint really prepared me mentally for that. They have been an incredible partner in guiding me through this process, and my transition will be much easier as a result.”
