Exit Audit
Do you know what your business is worth?
Like every business owner, it’s likely you have a number in mind, the one you’ve decided your business is worth. We frequently find that what you know your business should be worth, what it is worth, and what you can actually get for it are not necessarily the same number.
The good news is that we still have the power to align these numbers.
We just need a plan, and a little bit of time.
What is an Exit Audit?
Our Exit Audit is a detailed report that outlines your business valuation and scores for business exit readiness and attractiveness. It provides business owners with a baseline understanding of their preparedness to exit the business and provides actionable insights to add value.
An Exit Audit provides actionable insights related to two questions:
What is my business worth today and why?
If I were to put my business up for sale, could I actually get a deal done?
An Exit Audit stands distinct from a typical business valuation by:
Providing more depth and nuance in the response Question #1.
Addressing Question #2, which is beyond the scope of a typical business valuation.
You walk away with a tangible path to improving your business.
