What a buyer pays for, and what they discount.
An acquirer values what transfers cleanly and discounts what walks out the door with you. Three things decide which side of that line your business sits on.
- 01
Key-person risk
The discount buyers never mention
When the business runs on your relationships, your judgement and your hours, a buyer prices that risk straight into the multiple.
- 02
A documented operating system
What turns goodwill into transferable value
How the business runs has to live on paper and platform, not in your head, before a buyer will pay full value for it.
- 03
Leaders who run it without you
Proof the value stays after settlement
A leadership team that owns outcomes is the difference between selling a business and selling yourself with it.
Turn the business you run into the asset you own.
Design out the owner-dependency discount, so a buyer or successor pays for what you built.
