Seven steps to increasing
your business sale value
Every small business owner will leave their business at some point. Unfortunately, only 5% of small business owners actually have an exit plan that includes; what this looks like financially and when the exit will occur.
That means that 95% of business owners are continuing on their journey without any regard for whether they're building a business that can be exited on terms that suit them.
In this discussion, Mark and I chat through the seven steps to increasing your business sale value. By considering these, you can start to tackle each of them in turn so you can plan towards a business that you can hopefully exit, maximising your financial rewards at a time to suit you.

After over 25 years in high-growth businesses delivering results at a senior level, Gary knew he could use his skills to help SMEs.
A straight-talking, no-nonsense Yorkshire man, he now helps business owners to have the freedom to choose how, when and where they work through a range of online and in-person programmes.
Having turned around his business and his lifestyle as a result, Gary now runs three successful businesses and it’s this experience he uses to help other entrepreneurs ditch the guilt, start earning what they are worth, and creating the ability to make choices about how they spend their time.
He creates what many hard-working business owners are missing – the freedom to choose.
Gary holds a key role in the Association of Business Mentors in the UK and regularly engages business and university audiences about building the right business to give freedom and choice.
