When launching a business, clarity about your ultimate goal is everything. Yali Saar, CEO and Founder of Tailor Brands, reminds entrepreneurs that “going big is not a strategy. But deciding whether you are building a business for an exit, a cash flow lifestyle, or an IPO can help you put one in place.”
This principle is at the heart of Tailor Brands’ upcoming webinar, “How Smart Business Formation Leads to Better Exits”, on Monday, January 5th, 2026, at 3 p.m. EST. Saar will be joined by Blake Hutchison, CEO of Flippa, to discuss how intentional planning from day one can shape both business growth and long-term value.
Lessons from Experienced Founders
What separates first-time founders from serial entrepreneurs? Saar highlights that experienced founders understand the personal and professional toll of building a business. “They invest significant time in developing a clear goal and then work backwards from it,” she explains.
During the webinar, attendees will learn how to define a goal, reverse-engineer a path to achieve it, and create a roadmap that accounts for both short-term needs and long-term opportunities, especially those related to making a business attractive to buyers.
Tools for Every Step of the Journey
Tailor Brands helps over 2% of new U.S. business owners launch their ventures, offering a “Guidance Engine” that creates a tailored plan for every entrepreneur. From setting up operations to managing growth, the platform simplifies complex steps, helping founders focus on building value.
Flippa complements this approach by providing a marketplace for online business exits, with over 100,000 acquisitions globally. Together, the insights from Saar and Hutchison bridge the gap between creating a business that thrives and one that attracts the right buyers.
Who Will Benefit
The webinar is designed for SMB owners, aspiring entrepreneurs, and anyone considering how their business strategy today impacts tomorrow’s opportunities. Attendees will gain practical guidance on:
- Establishing clear business objectives
- Reverse-engineering a growth and exit plan
- Evaluating trade-offs between cash flow, personal goals, and future sales
- Creating a business that holds tangible value for buyers
These insights are particularly relevant for founders who want to avoid the pitfalls of building without a roadmap and ensure their efforts lead to measurable success.
