Workshop: Entrepreneurs and business owners are focused on growing their businesses. The difference between having a business and having a job comes down to one thing...can it be sold? Owners sell at various times for various reasons. Understanding when the right time to sell comes from not only understanding external factors (such as the market) but also internal factors (SDE, EBITDA, goodwill, willingness to invest time, energy, and talent toward growth & expansion). While owners may not be ready to sell today, knowing the steps, process, and how to evaluate their status is invaluable!
