Will 2022 be the same as 2021?
Change Starts Here!
Want to sell your business but not sure it’s saleable? Taking a business to market can be very costly, both in terms of time and money. Of course, if it sells, this is less of a problem. However most businesses do not sell first time – fact! Even if you do sell, it can take 12-18 months to get a deal over the line. It is extremely tempting, particularly when lured in by attractive offers or promises, to sign up with an agent or broker to take your business to market. If you knew beforehand that your chances of attracting offers or selling were slim, you certainly would not want to spend thousands signing up with a broker.
Why not invest a short amount of time to assess your business and look closely at its strengths and weaknesses? What makes it attractive, and what would turn buyers off? What sort of offers are you likely to attract? When would be the optimum time to sell and what sort of actions you can take to make your business more attractive to acquirers?
Over the years we have worked with many business owners and have been involved with over 170 successful completions. We therefore have a good idea of what sells, and what can prevent a sale or even prevent interest in your business. Speak to us first before committing a great deal of time, energy and money. Investing a short amount of time now, can literally save you thousands of pounds in fees.

Proud to be supporting Wave105 cash for kids

20/10/2021

Following our post a few months ago, I’m absolutely delighted to announce that we’ve assisted Donate It Recycling win and install a further 4 clothes banks at the Prestigious Marks & Spencer/Sainsbury’s site at Hedge End Retail Park in Southampton. Our client, Collin Moss, had spent years trying to gain access to this site but with little success and so decided to enlist our help. Hedge End is now fast becoming Donate It’s biggest and most productive site, adding to the companies already impressive performance and importantly, generating much needed additional income for Wave 105.2 FM CashforKids.

I realise a couple of photos of clothes banks aren’t particularly interesting, but they do generate a good deal of income for a worthwhile charity.
