Are you keeping your business on course for your ultimate objective? Are you on track for the exit you’ve planned, the sale you hope to achieve, or for the management team to take over so that you can free up your time?

In this week’s Hey Presto, Gavin gives you some ideas and pointers about the things you should be focussing upon if you want to stay on course towards your endgame.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
The general areas of error that many businesses suffer from in terms of their ultimate objectives, are failing to do enough to consider succession, and those who may have held on to their business for too long.
Creating an effective management team provides you with new options upon your exit. A management buyout by the team you’ve built is a robust exit solution. It also provides a third-party buyer with the faith that the company can continue successfully.
Lifestyle businesses are there to provide their owners with a lifestyle. But in the event of sale, you must reasonably be able to provide at least three years of proof of growth.

BEST MOMENTS

‘What an investor is looking for is a tick in a certain number of boxes’ 

‘If you’ve got a cross in these, then it devalues your business’ 

‘You need to be building balance sheets and building profitability'
