Eventual exit may be within the next 12 months or may still be some years away, but there is every reason to start to think about, and plan towards, your exit sooner rather than later.
Early planning will mean you have time to:
- Fully consider all the options you have for selling your business: management buy-out; trade sale; merger; passing the business to a family member;
- Understand how your business will be valued and which aspects a buyer would place most value on;
- Assess issues in your business which might need addressing to improve the value and /or saleability, eg. over-reliance on a few clients, suppliers, current owner; effectiveness of management systems.
- Have sufficient time to make changes in your business which will make it more saleable and valuable.
We are happy to discuss your business and your plans with you with a view to giving you a better understanding of your options and the likely value that will be paid for your business.
We are also able to offer advice and assistance some time before a sale where actions are necessary to improve the value and saleability of the business. This may also involve us introducing experienced business coaches to help you achieve the actions required to maximise the value and saleability.
