How do I determine the value of my business before selling it?

Focusing beyond the personal and family considerations discussed in Part 1 of this series, and assuming the decision has been made to move forward with the potential sale of the business, the next steps focus on the business itself and developing a plan for sale.

In most cases an analysis of the value of the company in the market place is a critical first step. Different businesses, and types of businesses, are valued in different ways in merger and acquisition transactions. In many cases, this difference in value depends upon the type of business, the buyer market, location, growth opportunities, and numerous other factors.

How do I know if I'm personally ready to sell my business?

Before initiating the sale of your business there are many preliminary considerations.

From a non-financial standpoint, are you ready to step out of the owner’s role? Are you prepared for retirement? Is your spouse prepared for your retirement? If transitioning to a child, is he or she ready to run the business? If several children are involved in the business, will they smoothly transition into new roles upon your departure?

While the financial aspects of a sale or retirement often become the primary focus of preliminary analysis, sale or transition discussions, and the ultimate sale or retirement decision, these non-financial considerations are often overlooked, or given limited thought, while they should often be the critical first step in deciding to sell or transition out of a business.
