My Exit Strategy

My Exit Strategy

1) Identify the exit strategy you plan to make. Do you intend to sell your business in the next 5 years for a large return? Do you intend to stay with the business for several decades and retire? Do you intend to protect the venture as a family business, and pass it down to your children?

At Juntos, we plan to grow the company in various markets and gain as much market share as possible. We also plan to raise as much funding as possible from VC/PE etc. We look to grow Juntos into an international brand and the only one of it's kind that offers joint purchasing. I think the smartest step for Juntos down the road will be to go public with the company in an IPO, as I believe the company will generate a lot of investor demand which will inject excess capital into the company so that Juntos can even grow further. 

2) Why have you selected this particular exit strategy?

I have selected this particular exit strategy because I think that Juntos will continually need a lot of capital to continue running. Juntos is trying to target an extremely large global market which will require ongoing funding. Going public is a good way for Juntos to secure the amount of capital it will need. 

3) How do you think your exit strategy has influenced the other decisions you've made in your concept? For instance, has it influenced how you have identified an opportunity? Has it influenced your growth intentions or how you plan to acquire and use resources?

 I think that this exit strategy has allowed us to think about different markets that Juntos could move in to. Going public on the equity markets allows Juntos to generate as much capital as it needs which allows us to position Juntos towards global markets. I believe that since Juntos will be a new concept, it needs a lot of capital as well so that barriers to entry are high.
