Why invest in formal exit planning?

The decision of how and when to exit from your business – often a lifetime’s work – is one of the biggest and most important decisions you will ever make. What’s more, you only get one chance to get it right.

It therefore goes without saying that the sale of your business is not an event that you can afford to stumble into based on anecdotal evidence and recommendations from peers and suppliers, or ‘generic advice’ from professional advisors with insufficient understanding of the nuances of your niche and dynamic market. Likewise taking ‘exit advice’ from an experienced potential purchaser who has approached you, is only ever going to favour one party – and it is not you!

Via Exit 360, we arranged for an evaluation of our business as well as a valuation. I must say that the money we paid for the evaluation was probably one of the best value pieces of advice I have ever personally paid for. The suggestions for how we could improve the business were fair, practical and positive. Nobody likes to hear that their business is not perfect, but the professional and detailed assessment I received from Myers La Roche about a month later was constructive, professional and a fair assessment of the business. The result being that we clearly added some serious value to the business over the next 18 months …

Knowledge is power

There are a whole host of questions, uncertainties and emotions  which can conspire to make the key decision of when to sell, and how best to approach it, extremely difficult.

Exit360 Pathfinder icon

What is my business worth? Can I actually afford to sell?

Exit360 Pathfinder icon

What price and sales terms could I genuinely achieve if I went to market now?

Exit360 Pathfinder icon

Are there things that I can do now to make the business worth more in the future?

Exit360 Pathfinder icon

Are there things that I can do now to make the sale of my business smoother and more tax efficient?

Exit360 Pathfinder icon

What happens to my staff in a sale scenario, and when should I tell them?

Exit360 Pathfinder icon

Is it possible to reduce the time I spend running the business and still retain it as an income generating asset? [A ‘soft’, or partial exit]

Exit360 Pathfinder icon

Can I trust other parties who have approached me to buy, or that others are signposting me to?

Exit360 Pathfinder icon

Are there potentially any strategic buyers out there, who – if I positioned my practice correctly - may be prepared to pay a premium price for my business in the future?

It was the right move, at the right time.
Thank you for changing my life.

JK, recently retired business owner, Surrey.

What can you expect after commissioning Exit 360 Pathfinder™?

Business owners who commission an Exit 360 report say that the exercise helped them to achieve clarity to make decisions which ultimately led to superior outcomes both financially and emotionally.

Some admit their businesses had drifted for a number of years, others have experienced impressive sustained growth, creating a high yielding asset, but one that is too reliant on them personally. Undertaking this work with Myers La Roche ENTERPRISE helped them understand the full spectrum of options and empowered and motivated them to chart a clear and decisive course, with the confidence that they have chosen the optimal path and timeframe.

Some owners elect for an immediate sale. We will advise this if we feel it is in your best interests, and that the economic and local market conditions are ripe. Using our business sales service, vendors benefit from our specialist knowledge and experience. In one recent case, we were able to achieve a price that was 140% over the technical value, amounting to an almost additional £190,000 for our client.

Other owners work in tandem with the Myers La Roche ENTERPRISE consultancy team to streamline their business to increase its value and improve their work-life balance.

The journey of each practice owner will be unique, and our report will give you a fully balanced and objective 360 degree viewpoint, allowing you to decide your future and take decisive action and to chart the right course from a fully informed position.

The pragmatic advice which followed has allowed me to achieve immediate results.

SM, business owner, Scotland.
