KEY TAKEAWAYS
In the world of business acquisition there are currently two dynamics: 

Business owners who have been successful over the past decades, but who are reluctant to commit to another period of having to provide strength and growth.
Businesses who are looking at acquisition in a much more focussed and strategic way, and who see the value in quickly scaling through acquiring a client base.
If you’re selling a business, you need to make sure your areas of due diligence are working well, and if you’re buying you need to make sure there are no skeletons in the closet that will decrease potential value.
Make sure you use your data in a very powerful way. Consider systems and metrics early, as you’ll be surprised later on, by how difficult it is to work without it when you need it. Keep records, implement systems and keep on top of it.
You must manage the way in which you influence and negotiate all the way through a sales process. It’s case of framing. Remember that a deal isn’t done until the agreements have been finalised. The really hard work comes in the validation process.

BEST MOMENTS

’The world we know is not going to back to the way it was’

‘Pace and scale are important’

‘Have the discipline and the metrics lined up!’

‘You’ve got to be strong. You’ve got to be able to stay true to what you’ve created'
