Of course you want an all-cash offer at a beefy multiple with no strings attached, but what do you really need from the sale of your company?
That’s a question Dr. Frank Gibson thought a lot about. He had a successful healthcare business but had stumbled on a new opportunity in a related field. He wanted to sell his company to fund the new idea and, at the same time, needed to retain the rights to some intellectual capital in his old business.
So you’ve built a successful business… Now what?
Is it time to free up your schedule by bringing in a manager to run your company day-to-day?
Or are you ready to sell?
Or maybe you’re planning to transition your business to a new generation of leaders?
The one prerequisite in all three of these scenarios is that you have a business that can thrive without you. And that’s where The Value Builder System™ comes in. We’ve built a step-by-step process designed to remove you personally from your business, driving up its value and giving you the time to get back to what you love.
Whether you want to sell for a premium—or just know that you could—The Value Builder System™ will ensure you’ve got all of the options for the business and life you deserve. Start by getting your Value Builder Score.
