Exit Factor brings proven exit planning strategies to Cleveland, helping local business owners increase profitability, efficiency, and long-term value.
CLEVELAND, OH / ACCESS Newswire / March 23, 2026 / Exit Factor, a business consulting franchise that specializes in exit planning for small to mid-sized companies, announced today the opening of its newest location in Cleveland, OH. Owner Bob Willis, who, in addition to being an attorney for the past 30 years, has also started, owned, and successfully sold multiple businesses, will be the owner and operator of Exit Factor of Cleveland Central.
The Exit Factor program is a proven process with tailored exit plans that safeguard the long-term value of a business now and in the future, no matter the size. Designed to help owners take control of their business by maximizing profit, efficiency, and value from day one, even if a sale isn't uppermost on the owner's mind.
"Even though we will all exit our businesses someday, most business owners don't have a plan," said Bob Willis, franchise owner. "I see the need for these programs in Cleveland so we can help entrepreneurs successfully improve their company's efficiency, value, and ultimately ability to exit."
The company was founded by best-selling author, speaker, and small-business advocate Jessica Fialkovich. Her passion for helping business owners maximize their company's value, grew from her experience as a business broker and owner of a Transworld Business Advisors franchise. For businesses that were not quite ready to sell, or had potential to increase their value prior to listing, Fialkovich developed a program, teaching strategies on ways to build value, profitability, and salability.
"We're very proud of the success Exit Factor has had in helping businesses plan for profitability to ensure business owners maximize their company's value when it's time to sell," Jessica Fialkovich said. "We look forward to bringing Bob Willis on board to help even more business owners."
Participants in Exit Factor's program earn back an average of $2,700 in exit value for every hour they spend in the program. Within the first year, clients have seen a 25% increase in profit and a 56.7% increase in business value. For those who have decided to sell, the program has helped them achieve successful exits.
