Staging Your Company for Sale

I thought I would write a brief note about an article that Robert Kheir is in the process of writing for a regional business magazine.

When it comes to mergers and acquisitions we believe that it is important to educate business owners on the options and choices that are available to them when entering this process. But what about before starting the divestiture process?

Over the recent years Rob has noticed that there is little written on educating current business owners on how to stage their business for sale. Similar to staging a house for sale,  business and home owners alike typically do not know where to start.

Below is a 7 step staging your business 'to do' list to give you a taste of what the article will focus on.

1. Clean Financial Records
2. Supportable Forecasts
3. Client Diversity
4. Delegated Authority
5. Happy Employees
6. Commitment to Transition
7. -> Number 7 will be disclosed in the full article,  sorry to leave you hanging but this article is worth the read, so check back with us frequently for the full article being posted within the next two weeks.

I will post the article when it becomes available online.
