At the Exit Planning Institute (EPI), we are committed to forging partnerships that provide real value to business owners and advisors alike. We are excited to announce the arrival of Ninety as a new preferred strategic partner of EPI. Ninety is an innovative cloud-based platform that helps businesses focus, align, and thrive. Ninety aims to enhance the exit planning process by incorporating principles of the Value Acceleration Methodology into actionable steps within their platform.
Introducing Ninety
Ninety was founded with a mission to support the small-medium business market of privately held companies that are looking to grow, scale and exit. By offering a fully integrated software platform, Ninety provides businesses with every essential tool needed to build, scale, and eventually transition successfully. Ninety has taken core concepts of the Value Acceleration Methodology and put them into action through their platform.
Ninety Shares Their Story
Ninety began as a solution to a common problem faced by many business owners and coaches, the inefficiencies caused by using disconnected systems and tools. Over time, business coaches noticed that many of their clients were struggling to manage their operations effectively due to the lack of an integrated platform. This led to the creation of Ninety in 2017.
Since its inception, Ninety has grown rapidly, helping thousands of companies align their goals, improve communication, and build value. With over 150,000 users and a suite of interconnected tools, Ninety’s platform provides businesses with the resources they need to work on the business rather than getting bogged down in daily operations. They have also been listed as both a Top Place to Work and are among the fastest growing SaaS companies on Inc 5000.
Bringing Value Acceleration to Life
Ninety integrates the management concepts of the Value Acceleration Methodology directly into their platform. This alignment allows business owners to implement critical Personal, Financial, and Business Value Factors through an intuitive software solution. Whether business owners are working independently or alongside a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA), Ninety’s platform helps translate strategic insights into actionable results.
Supporting CEPAs
Ninety’s platform is not just for business owners; it also serves as a powerful tool for CEPAs. With the ability to monitor key growth levers and opportunities, CEPAs can provide more strategic and impactful advice to their clients. Ninety’s platform enables seamless collaboration between advisors and business owners, ensuring that every growth opportunity is maximized. With over 50 CEPAs already enrolled in their Partner Program, Ninety is committed to driving the success of exit planning professionals nationwide.
Ideal Clients
Ninety’s platform is designed with two types of clients in mind. First, business owners with 10 to 250 employees who are focused on scaling and exiting their organizations will benefit from Ninety’s comprehensive approach. Second, business coaches of any background looking to operationalize their practices will find Ninety’s tools invaluable for supporting their clients’ growth.
Strategic Partnership with Exit Planning Institute®
The strategic partnership between Ninety and the Exit Planning Institute was fueled by shared values and an aligned mission. Both organizations are experiencing significant growth, and together, this partnership will accelerate awareness and adoption of intentional exit planning across the small and medium-sized business market.
