Stop Chasing Income: Start Building Enterprise Value

Featuring Justin Goodbread

November 25, 2026
In this episode, Scott Snider sits down with Justin Goodbread to explore what happens when advisors stop viewing the Value Acceleration Methodology only as something they deliver to clients and begin applying it to their own firms.

Justin shares how shifting his focus from income to enterprise value changed the trajectory of his advisory practice and ultimately helped him build, scale, and exit multiple businesses. He and Scott discuss why advisors should become their own best case study, how real-world experience creates greater credibility with business owners, and why building a durable, scalable, and transferable practice can make advisors more effective in the work they do for others.

The conversation also dives into thought leadership, defining the right client avatar, authentic positioning, and the importance of staying focused on the work where an advisor creates the most value. Whether that means building a more valuable advisory firm or collaborating with a strong value advisor, Justin challenges advisors to stop chasing every opportunity and instead build intentionally around the clients, strengths, and outcomes that matter most.
Flipping the Script: Renee Russo Interviews Scott Snider

Featuring Renee Russo

December 9, 2026

In this special Flip the Script episode, 2026 Exit Planner of the Year Renee Russo takes over the host chair to interview Scott Snider about the future of exit planning, the evolution of the profession, and the opportunities ahead for advisors and business owners alike.

The conversation explores the growing need for advisor activation, deeper collaboration, and a shift from technical expertise toward more human-centered relationships. Scott shares why the next phase of exit planning is less about education and more about execution, helping advisors move from understanding the methodology to actively creating impact with business owners. Together, Scott and Renee discuss community, trust, collaboration, AI, and the role advisors play in helping owners align their business, personal, and financial goals.

At its core, this episode is a conversation about transformation. As exit planning continues to evolve from a transactional process into a value creation movement, Scott outlines why he believes the next decade will fundamentally change how business owners think about growth, leadership, succession, and long term significance.
