The Eye of the Beholder

• T or F: The business is actually worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

• The harsh reality is that the value of the business has very little to do with the founder’s sunk cost.

• The one who claims to be the “synergistic” buyer may just make the worst offer.

But Wait… There’s More!

• With proper planning and commitment, when held accountable owners can build true value.

• Know that there are free resources available to help enhance business value.

• The key: Don’t make crucial decisions in a vacuum... just ask!
