Who would have thought that a retired army officer's next mission would be eyelashes? Many veterans, tired of answering to someone else, explore business ownership as their next career path to take control of their lives. I met this gentleman at a Boots to Business seminar, where I discussed how to find happiness through entrepreneurship after a military career. He wanted to run a semi-absentee business with enough revenue to replace his military income while building a legacy for his children. And yes, a lash business was the perfect fit!

There's a storm brewing. 73% of privately held businesses in the U.S. will transition over the next ten years, representing an approximately $14 trillion wealth transfer opportunity. Will businesses be ready to exit? Will they maintain economic continuity? The U.S. Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship (SBC) convened a committee hearing on succession planning earlier this year in January and Scott Snider, President of the Exit Planning Institute was called upon for his insights and expertise across the field. I was nice to hear some high level implementation approaches on how and where to start spreading the word to business owners (ex. Small Business Association Development Centers, Veteran Owned Business Outreach Centers, Chambers of Commerce, Family Enterprise Centers, Alumni Associations, etc.). A key item that was emphasized was that the things any business owner should do as part of their exit planning efforts are the same things a business owner should be doing day to day to build a viable business. In other words, exit planning is just good business strategy.

How do you slow down to speed up again, Founders? U.S. Memorial Day weekend is coming up. It’s an opportunity to slow day and remember the men and women who have died while serving in the U.S. military, protecting our democratic and entrepreneurial way of life. This also means: give yourself + your team a holiday break by: * Unplugging.  * Getting away.  * Breaking your rhythms.  * Changing your routines.  * Using “out of office” email for once. Other than keeping your commitments, nothing is so important it can’t wait a few days so you can slow down. When you plan for it, and act on it with intention + purpose. Time + energy is finite. You only have so much of it in a day. Intentionally slowing down in life + work helps you speed up again. #DoWhatWeValue * * * * * I’m Dale Archer, helping #founders grow + scale better, faster, and smarter toward their dreams.

Transitioning from a military career to entrepreneurship is a journey marked by courage, determination and grit. As veterans embark on this new path, one of the critical challenges they often face is securing the capital needed to turn their business ideas into reality.

An amazing experience! Launching a business can feel like a monumental effort just to get that first sale, let alone grow. What would happen if you dedicated 10-weeks to focus on the fundamentals need to launch and move forward? What would happen if you joined a community of like-minded veteran and military spouse entrepreneurs also working to take the next big step to launch a business. When you join Bunker Labs Veterans in Residence (ViR), you have more than an entrepreneurial endeavor in common—you have a common ethos, shaped by a common experience. Hit the ground running with a community that never gives up, no matter the challenge.
