What Is Exit Factor?

Exit Factor is a business consulting firm. Our passion is helping small to medium-sized businesses increase their profit, efficiency, and value of their business to prepare for the sale of the company in the future. We do this through business valuations, 1:1 consulting, business partner concierge, education and group programs. We work with companies up to $30 million in revenue across the United States in various industries.

Exit Factor of Chicagoland is a small locally-owned office that is part of a larger global organization. Therefore, we have the feel of a small business with the resources of a multinational company.
