Frequently asked questions

How much does Transitional cost?

keyboard_arrow_down

At Transitional, we charge a 10% flat fee. This means for any asset sales, our fees are 10% of the total sale of assets. For acquihires, we take 10% of the hired candidate's first year's salary. This fee does not include any of the costs associated with shutting down the stay-behind entity.

How long does your process typically take?

keyboard_arrow_down

The typical engagement with Transitional is 3 months. This timeline varies based on whether you're auctioning assets, selling your assets, or acquihiring a team.

Who winds down the entity after the assets are sold or the team is acquihired?
