Entrepreneur Minute – Micah Brandenburg, Legendary Exits

The Who’s on the Move Entrepreneur Minute is an interview series exploring how South Carolina businesses and organizations are innovating to stay competitive in a rapidly changing world. Each episode features leaders from a wide range of industries—including private companies, nonprofits, education, healthcare and manufacturing—who are embracing new ideas, technologies and strategies to drive growth and create lasting impact. In 2026, innovation is no longer optional. Organizations that fail to adapt risk becoming irrelevant, while those that innovate are shaping the future of their industries and communities.

Micah Brandenburg, Founder, Legendary Exits

Legendary Exits is an exit planning and growth advisory firm for owners of privately held companies. The firm works upstream of the deal, in the years before a transition, where most of a company’s value is created. Its Exit Architects start with the life the owner wants on the other side of the business, design the company to fund it and stay through execution — aligning the owner’s existing tax, legal and wealth advisors around a single vision.

Founder and President Micah Brandenburg is a Certified Exit Planning Advisor who structured more than $500 million in debt financing for lower-middle-market companies, is a three-time Inc. 5000 CFO, and has advised more than 1,000 owners through the SBA THRIVE program.
