Why I Built This Tool
After exiting my own home care company—and a couple other businesses before that—I learned something the hard way: most owners have no idea what their agency is actually worth until they're already in a conversation with a buyer.
By then, you've lost leverage.
I built Exit Lab | Home Care to give you the clarity I wish I had. A realistic range. An honest assessment of what's working and what's not. And a clear picture of what it would take to maximize your exit.
— Billy Baumann, Founder
