When you are the owner of a business, you may have aspirations of selling your business and using the sale proceeds to fund your retirement, to travel the world or invest in another venture. On the other hand, you might consider selling part of your business so that you can reduce the amount of time you spend working.
Either way, proactive exit planning is very important.
Exit strategy to enhance business value
Having a plan of how you are going to exit your business and executing that plan over a period of time generally leads to a better outcome than when things are dealt with in an ad hoc way.
An exit plan looks at how your involvement with your business will end, such as through a third-party sale of the business or by passing it on to your family. The exit plan looks at:
Your personal financial position and future requirements;
Your personal hopes and aspirations;
The financial position of the business;
What needs to be done to improve the attractiveness of the business, and;
The tax aspects from both a business and a personal point of view.
Increase the attractiveness and value of your business
By looking at your business from a buyer’s perspective you have the opportunity to improve the business, increase its attractiveness and profitability and thereby improve its value.
