“Putting it on the table” with Scott Snider, president of the Exit Planning Institute

Scott Snider began his entrepreneurship journey in high school when he started mowing lawns. His side gig quickly turned into a full-blown operation with several employees. With mentorship from his dad, he grew the business and strategically sold it seven years later. Scott now uses his dad’s same methodology to help other businesses. As the president of the Exit Planning Institute (EPI), Scott provides learning experiences, performance-enhancing resources, and strategic tools designed to help businesses exit in the best way. Whether it’s a one-man operation or a large manufacturing company, EPI aims to train advisors to help them grow and exit effectively. In this episode, Scott delves into the ins and outs of his industry and how the last few years have affected it. Carol and Scott also discuss his militant leadership style and how feedback from his closest employees made him change. He tells us about a value he upholds at EPI that he calls “putting it on the table” and why that is so significant.
