Are you are aiming to build the value of your company ready to sell now or in the future? If the answer is yes, it’s important that every decision you make should be directed towards this.
Preparation is key
The best way to do this is by following five important factors which will help make your business look appealing to a potential buyer:
- Create a healthy income stream
- Have a tidy profit after all costs and overhead are paid out
- Build a proven plan of marketing that produces consistent sales.
- Have a strong client/customer base.
- Have an organised, efficient workflow system.
Another important factor to consider is if you leave your business what happens to it?
TOP TIP: The more your business relies on you, the less valuable it is.
Separation is key
Make sure you’re building your business in the right way. Growth requires planning, if your business is growing make sure to plan as this will help you see past the present and envision what the business will be like in the future. Along with this having a set plan will allow the business to run without you, building the value of the business.
Your employees are the lifeblood of the business, not only do they help carry out your vision but they are also there to support you if you are in the office or out. Having a team that can carry the business while you’re away will help add value for anyone when you sell. Buying an unorganised and unhappy business is not what buyers are looking for.
