Selling The Business/Exit Strategy
- The only reason to go into business is to eventually sell it. The time, energy, skill and capital invested into our businesses need to generate a financial return via an exit.
- Most of our exits are via a sale, either to a competitor, a new market entrant, a financial buyer or an individual or individuals, either inside the business already or external.
- We place the best management teams within our businesses so that they are highly attractive to buyers and/or investors, before marketing the business for sale in a controlled, professional process. We create all the deal marketing documents, control the flow of business information, arrange meetings and solicit offers before realizing the best options.
