Go over your business with an expert to help kickstart your sale prep and boost your valuation.
How you prep for that sale could be the difference between exciting money and life-changing money.
Just by getting your house in order — things like optimizing financials and establishing clear SOPs — can increase your valuation by 20–30% (and that can be worth millions of dollars).
Other crucial factors play a role in your final valuation, like:
The exit process can be long and intense, especially if you have to run your normal business operations at the same time. It's easy to get overwhelmed, which can hurt the sale and your daily business results.
Selling a business is very time consuming. If you're learning on the fly, or if a deal collapses, or if you decide to change your exit strategy midway through — these can all result in months or years of your time down the drain.
There's nothing worse than parting with something you've worked so hard to build, only to receive a lower payout than you deserve thanks to things like poor preparation, choosing the wrong buyer, or unforeseen market factors.
We want to make sure your sale is a pleasurable experience and that, in the end, you get the deal you deserve.
