Exit Factor Expands Territory With New Location in Naperville, Illinois

Helping Business Owners Take Control, Increase Value, and Prepare for a Successful Exit

NAPERVILLE, ILLINOIS / ACCESS Newswire / April 15, 2025 / Exit Factor™, a business consulting franchise that specializes in exit planning for small to mid-sized companies, announced today the opening of its newest location in Naperville, Illinois. John Kopp, a Naperville native and former CFO and Co-Owner of Lisle-based transportation brokerage ITG Transportation Services, will serve as the owner and operator of Exit Factor of Naperville.

The Exit Factor program is a proven process with tailored exit plans that safeguard the long-term value of a business now and in the future, no matter the size. Designed to help owners take control of their business by maximizing profit, efficiency, and value from day one, even if a sale isn't uppermost on the owner's mind.

"I see so much value in the service Exit Factor provides," said John Kopp, franchise owner. "Too many business owners shutter their doors instead of capitalizing on years of hard work and dedication. Too often, business owners are being run by their businesses. Exit Factor gives business owners a clear path to take back control and unlock the full value of what they've built."

The company was founded by best-selling author, speaker, and small-business advocate Jessica Fialkovich. Her passion for helping business owners maximize their company's value, grew from her experience as a business broker and owner of a Transworld Business Advisors® franchise. For businesses that were not quite ready to sell, or had potential to increase their value prior to listing, Fialkovich developed a program, teaching strategies on ways to build value, profitability, and salability.

"We're very proud of the success Exit Factor has had in helping businesses plan for profitability to ensure business owners maximize their company's value when it's time to sell," Jessica Fialkovich said. "We look forward to bringing Exit Factor of Naperville, Illinois on board to help even more business owners."

Participants in Exit Factor's program earn back an average of $2,700 in exit value for every hour they spend in the program. Within the first year, clients have seen a 25% increase in profit and a 56.7% increase in business value. For those who have decided to sell, the program has helped them achieve successful exits.
