Founder, Exit Lab | Second Chair Advisory LLC
Billy has been on both sides of home care M&A transactions as an advisor helping owners prepare for exit, and as someone who understands the buyer's perspective from working with private equity groups and strategic acquirers.
He built Exit Lab because he saw too many agency owners leaving money on the table simply because they didn't know what buyers actually look for. This free consultation distills years of deal experience into focused, actionable guidance tailored to your specific situation.
His approach is straightforward: no jargon, no pressure, just honest analysis and actionable recommendations you can implement immediately.
Stop wondering what your agency is worth and what to do next. Get honest answers from someone who's been in the room when these deals close.
