Three quarters of business owners plan to exit within the next decade.
Of those who successfully sell, 75% experience profound regret within a year of closing, not because the deal failed, but because they weren't prepared for what came after.
After five hundred conversations with owners, advisors, and investors, one truth is consistent: that cycle of regret breaks when advisors trust each other enough to show up as a team, not a collection of individual experts.
XPX Phoenix exists to build a community of advisors across disciplines who are committed to doing this differently.
This inaugural session brings us together around the question that makes everything else possible: what does it take to build genuine trust and credibility, with each other, and with the owners who need us most?
If you want to be part of building something special in the Phoenix market, this is where it starts.
