Prepare to Sell Your Business

"This is going to be the most important part of the entire sales process. It can also prove to be the hardest part since a businesses value can be subjective due to a lot of different factors. There have been countless different company owners that have sold for way to low, only to find out later that they could have received double or even triple the amount they were offered. The first thing you should understand is that even though you think your business might be worth a certain amount, you have to take into consideration what the average potential buyer would be willing to pay for it. Consider a professional valuation to determine this. What you think your business is worth and what you may get an offer for can be two completely different things. Alternatively what you think your business is worth and the real valuation could be much higher than you think. There is never really any middle ground.

Standard valuation methods including discounted cash flow, multiple of earnings and return on investment. These are used to analyse your company accounts and determine a net value of your business. A combination of all three will get the best and most accurate valuation of your business."
