Selling your Business

From $1M Exit to Next Venture: How Strategic Tax Planning Fuels Serial Entrepreneurship

For serial entrepreneurs, selling a business isn’t an endpoint—it’s a launchpad. Just ask our client, a Forest City-based e-commerce innovator who sold their business for $1M+,, then leveraged Bhundhoo Tax’s expertise to keep more of their earnings. Today, they’re not just celebrating a successful exit—they’re using their tax savings to recharge, refocus, and build their next big idea.
