ABOUT ELIZABETH
LIZ MACRAE, CEPA
Co-Founder/Head of Partnerships
Meet Liz MacRae:
Elizabeth is a Certified Exit Planning Advisor and the Co-Founder of the tech start-up: Village Wellth; a digital acquisition platform built to connect buyers of small businesses to the business for sale ecosystem.
After missing the opportunity to take over her father’s company due to lack of succession planning, Elizabeth and her husband Scott ventured into business ownership through purchasing a franchise. The experience of starting a new franchise and coming full circle to sell it, led her into the business succession space; training as a business broker and later, exit planning advisor.
Over the last 10 years, Elizabeth has acquired and exited two companies and lives to tell the tales.
She is an active speaker and is passionate about sharing the advantages and process of business acquisition with aspiring entrepreneurs and founders alike.
Through her work with Village Wellth she is devoted to improving the acquisition ecosystem by way of collaborations, partnerships, and developing technology that helps to accelerate the acquisition process.
