Exit Factor Becomes a Franchise in the Starpoint Brands Division of United Franchise Group

    WEST PALM BEACH, FL, January 03, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Exit Factor™, a company that specializes in increasing the value of businesses and getting them ready for sale or exit, is now one of the franchise concepts of Starpoint Brands, a family of trusted brands representing the very best in their industries, within United Franchise Group™ (UFG), a constellation of affiliated brands and consultants. Exit Factor's team of trusted advisors offers a consulting program which begins with an Exit Assessment, determining where the business is, where the owner wants it to be and how to bridge the gap. Clients then participate in a detailed annual program to increase not only the company value but also its efficiency and profitability.

Exit Factor first joined UFG's business consulting group in August 2022. Exit Factor was founded by best-selling author, speaker and small-business advocate Jessica Fialkovich, whose passion for helping business owners maximize their company's value grew from her experience as a business broker and owner of a franchise in the UFG brand Transworld Business Advisors®. Fialkovich developed a program to help owners of small to mid-size businesses by teaching strategies on ways to build value, profitability and salability for businesses getting ready to sell.

"I'm proud to bring Exit Factor into the Starpoint Brands family within United Franchise Group, because this will create even more opportunities to help businesses get in their best shape for sale," Fialkovich said. "At our core, Exit Factor is a team of entrepreneurs, and our mission is to serve fellow entrepreneurs by getting the maximum value out of their businesses. We've done the research, talked to countless buyers, and been involved in thousands of business sales worth millions. Our programs give businesses insider access to the market's demands and highlight what buyers are willing to pay for businesses."

Starting the year off strong, Exit Factor will be launching offices in Colorado, Texas, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and Massachusetts. The brand will also hold its first training class this month. As part of the UFG family of affiliated brands, Exit Factor franchise owners have access to UFG's global network and more than four decades of experience in the franchising industry. They are further supported by the leadership team and fellow franchise owners of Starpoint Brands, UFG's specialty division of its retail, food & beverage and professional services companies.

"Since joining United Franchise Group, Jessica and her team have helped countless businesses achieve maximum profitability for sale, and with new franchise owners joining her brand I know we'll bring the dreams of entrepreneurship to many more," said Ray Titus, Founder and CEO of UFG. "Exit Factor is actively seeking affiliates to join the team and bring the consulting program to even more businesses throughout the U.S."

Although outcomes vary by individual, participants that followed the program experienced considerable results with some increasing business valuation as much as 57% in one year, as well as a reduction in average selling time from nine months to as few as four months.

As a result of its success, growth and female entrepreneurship, Exit Factor has been named the winner of a Bronze Stevie® Award in the Women-Lead Workplace of the Year category in the 20th annual Stevie Awards for Women in Business. The Stevie Awards for Women in Business honor the achievements of women executives, entrepreneurs, employees, and the companies they run– worldwide. The Stevie Awards have been hailed as the world's premier business award.
