In this episode of The Private Practice Survival Guide, Brandon Seigel breaks down one of the most overlooked—but most critical—elements of private practice ownership: defining your endgame and building a deliberate exit strategy. Rather than reacting to burnout, retirement pressure, or market shifts, Brandon challenges practice owners to forecast their “final play” early and let that vision drive every operational, financial, and leadership decision. From realistic valuation multiples and EBITDA expectations to why only a small percentage of practices ever sell successfully, this episode reframes exit planning as a growth discipline—not an afterthought.

Listeners are guided through practical exit scenarios, buyer types (family, employees, competitors, private equity), and the metrics buyers actually care about—clean financials, upward growth trends, scalable systems, and strong human capital. Brandon also outlines common valuation mistakes, tax considerations, timing strategies, and the importance of planning at least 5–7 years in advance. The result is a clear, executive-level roadmap for maximizing practice value, protecting legacy, and exiting on your terms—so you can thrive long before the sale ever happens.
