Due Dilly is exit planning software for small businesses, built for the wealth managers, Small Business Development Centers, and advisors who serve them. We started in Alaska, where the problem was visible up close. We are building the category from Alaska outward.
Alaska gave us a focused environment to design the platform right before scaling it nationally. Tight communities, real owner relationships, and a small business economy where the gap between owner and advisor was easy to see. The product is national. The discipline is Alaskan.
A business sale is one of the most significant financial events in an owner’s life. Most owners approach it the way they would approach selling a house. They expect a listing, some offers, a negotiation, and a close. The reality is nothing like that.
It is a structured process with distinct stages, multiple professionals, legal frameworks, financial scrutiny, and decisions that build on each other over months. Buyers do this regularly. For most sellers, it is the one and only time.
What Kekama kept seeing in practice was a consistent pattern. Buyers and their advisors came prepared. Sellers did not — not because they were unsophisticated, but because no one had given them the same foundation the other side already had. Due Dilly was built to close that gap.
Over the next two decades, the largest generational transfer of small business ownership in American history will play out. More than half of U.S. small businesses are owned by Baby Boomers. Most will transition ownership within the next ten to fifteen years, not always by choice.
When they transfer well, wealth is preserved, jobs are protected, and the next chapter begins on solid ground. When they transfer badly, years of built value disappear and a community loses something it rarely gets back.
Due Dilly was built to be the infrastructure that should have existed long ago — for the individual owner, for the advisors who serve them, and for the communities whose economic health depends on these transitions going well.
Personal matching, not a directory.
The advisor matching included with the full course is a personal conversation with the Due Dilly team based on your completed exit survey, your timeline, your location preferences, and your specific situation. Every advisor in the network has been evaluated personally.
