Building Value for an Exit

Ninety seven percent of all businesses around the world are small yet most will never celebrate their 5th birthday. They will die a quiet death without much fanfare. Of those that do turn five, most will only eke out a simple living for their founder who closes the doors when it’s time to retire with nothing to sell but perhaps some old inventory. Of the tiny minority of owners that do build a sellable business and list it with a broker, their odds of getting an offer are less than one in three.

Personally, I do not like the odds the majority of business owners face when it comes to selling their business. People who work so hard, and sacrifice so much, deserve the chance to be paid for what they have built. My goal is to honor an owner’s sacrifice and empower them to fight back to get the highest price they can for their life’s work. If you are amongst the majority of business owners that are not sure if their business is ready to sell, or the current valuation is not what you were hoping for, I can help get you there or refer specialists for specific needs. It all starts with a valuation and discovery assessment. Contact me to schedule a call.
