Exit Factor Expands Territory With New Location in Atlanta, Georgia

Franchise owner Josiah Wiley launches Exit Factor Atlanta North to help small and mid-sized companies maximize value and plan successful, legacy-building exits.

ATLANTA, GA / ACCESS Newswire / September 8, 2025 / Exit Factor™, a franchise specializing in exit planning for small and mid-sized companies, announced the opening of Exit Factor Atlanta North, led by owner-operator Josiah Wiley. An accomplished executive with 20+ years of growth and innovation leadership at Johnson Controls and Tom Barrow Company, Wiley holds 10 U.S. and international patents and multiple awards. He brings this expertise to help Atlanta owners maximize value and plan successful, profitable exits.

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.

"At Exit Factor, we help business owners unlock the full value of what they've built. It's more than just an exit - it's about legacy, freedom, and setting the stage for what's next," said Josiah Wiley, franchise owner. "I see a real need for these programs in Atlanta, where we can address specific challenges and support entrepreneurs in improving their company's efficiency, value, and ultimately, their ability to exit successfully."

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 Atlanta North 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.
