Build a repeatable sales playbook before hiring: analyze 20 closed deals, define ICP, create demo scripts, objection responses, follow-ups, and a 4-week plan.

Single-family offices cost $3–10M/year and are cost-effective mainly for portfolios over $100M; smaller holders should use multi-family, virtual, or embedded models.

Align your post-exit wealth plan to assets and complexity: wealth managers for <$50M, multi-family offices for $50M–$150M, single-family offices for $150M+.

A family office makes sense only when complexity and steady income justify its high annual costs — not just reaching a net-worth number.
