What if you could exit the daily operations of your business—without selling it?

In this episode of the System Simplified podcast, host Adi Klevit interviews Jason Duncan, founder of The Exiter Club and author of Exit Without Exiting. Jason shares how he went from a top-performing teacher to building a seven-figure lighting company—and why he chose to extract himself from its operations rather than sell.

Jason breaks down the 7 stages of his Exiter Method, which starts with mastering delegation and ends with either stepping away or selling at a premium valuation. He and Adi also explore the role of systems and processes, team development, recurring revenue, and how mindset influences a founder’s ability to let go.

Listeners will walk away with practical steps to create more freedom while increasing the value of their company through strategic systems and leadership.

Quotable Moments:

“You can’t run a business on memory—you have to run it on processes and systems.”
“The reason you want out is the same reason no one will want in.”
“There are only three things entrepreneurs should do: set the vision, communicate the vision, and build the asset.”
“Entrepreneurs don’t want to own a job—they want to own freedom.”
“Systemization works best once you’ve built your support squad and A-team.”
“Exit isn’t always about selling—it’s about having the option to walk away.”

Action Steps:

Evaluate where your business still relies on you daily
Start with basic delegation—assign not just tasks, but decision-making authority
Assemble a reliable support team before systemizing
Build systems and processes only after key people are in place
Look for areas in your business that can become recurring revenue streams
Define your exit vision: stay involved, step away, or prepare for sale
