Ep #25 Common Business Readiness Issues When Considering an Exit

Less than 20% of businesses that go to market will sell. The majority of those that do, sell well below the owner's desired value. Why is this? Listen in as I discuss the top four most common business readiness issues and how to fix them. Addressing these four issues alone will set you apart from the remaining 80% of businesses that have no chance of selling. 

So, in this episode, I will be sharing what the top mistakes owners make when trying to sell their business are, how are buyers looking at businesses to determine if it is valuable or not, and what are the value factors owners should be aware of to position their company for maximum attractiveness.
