Business

2. Potentials
How do great owners make their businesses worth more ?
1) 95 % of owners overestimate their company’s worth – it’s normal - so
those in the know increase operational strength to grow and optimize
value, well before transition.
2) Our customers typically discover a 15-45% value gap between current and
potential enterprise value, relative to competitors. Our assessment happens
in minutes, not months.
3) We rank key improvements by ROI, thus impact on valuation – which
drives out very clear priorities. Many clients can achieve a 20 % + annual
gain in operational value.
4) Absent this kind of insight and effort, the track record is poor – 80% of
businesses aren’t sold and just shut their doors.
4. Profits are today’s good news from yesterday’s efforts –
and while they fund the future, they don’t predict it.
Discovering the Path to Value
If you can’t show a credible,
systematic method to generate
profits going forward - the
capacity to produce value - your
company is tough to sell. Just
ask a prospective investor,
banker or buyer.
The key is to assess, plan and build operational value.
5. But How? Is This Familiar …..
T ____ F____ We need to go faster. Be more innovative.
Make better decisions. Break down silos. Capture
more / better RFPs. Work horizontally. Simplify our
structure. Focus on the customer. Scale without
losing what makes us great. Be more agile. Change
our business model. Upgrade technology. Share
information. Prepare for volume changes. Attract
different talent. Retain the great talent we have.
T____ F ____ Too busy to improve
6. Some Days …..
“I’m not confident I could let go and leave this in other
peoples’ hands ……even for a short getaway.”
7. What are the right things to do? Which first?
Which will add the greatest value? How do
you know?
10. Some Bracing Facts
• Only 2 out of every 10 businesses that come to
market actually sell.
• Only 30% of family businesses successfully
transition to the second generation, only 12%
transfer to the third, and the success rates diminish
from there.
• Of those that succeed in the sale of their business,
75% experience “profound regret” within one year
of exiting their business.

12. Imagine if you systematically raised your business’ value in
a deliberate, ongoing way. You’d enjoy financial freedom
and time freedom because of:
Customer confidence - they keep buying
Employee confidence - they keep applying and working
Investors call you back – and keep investing
When you finally approach transition, the business has all
the value from your life work that you’re counting on.
