Thinking of Retirement?

The ultimate aim of every serious business person is to build a company that has value, so that it can be sold or transferred, allowing the entrepreneur to exit gracefully and profitably.

Recently, we have been helping a number of our entrepreneur clients develop exit strategies. There are many factors to consider:

• When do you want to retire?

• Can the business be sold to your employees?

• Is a trade sale more likely?

• Are there children involved?

• How much is the business worth?

• What needs to be done to enhance the value of the business?

• How long will it take?

• Do you want or need to stay on after the sale or transfer?

• What are the tax consequences?

We have a tried and tested methodology to address these issues and to help you prepare your business for sale, find potential buyers and help you negotiate to get the maximum price. If you would like to discuss your personal exit plans, we would be happy to do so with you — Just give us a call!
