Closing Plan.
Work through the ending.
Keep what comes next clear.
Bring the people, promises, dates and unfinished work together. Keep a plan you can return to, even after trading stops.
- What to bring
- Your current situation, the people involved, unfinished commitments, known dates and questions still to resolve. Begin while considering closure, preparing to close or after trading has stopped.
- What you keep
- An editable closing plan with actions, responsibilities, dates, work areas and selected adviser notes. This coordinates the practical ending of a business; a sale-value scenario has a different purpose.
- Keeping & returning
- Download the editable JSON plan and reopen it here. Optional browser saving stays on this device and site address. Reading copies do not restore the plan; keep an editable download as the work changes.
