Andy believes that businesses are often sold at values beneath their potential. Grooming a business as a way of preparing it for sale can dramatically improve shareholder value and reduce the time to complete a transaction and the associated costs of professional fees.
Having built a strong relationship with Savills, Andy is now partnering with the leading industry specialists to take leisure businesses to market. He is able to provide coaching for small to medium sized business owners enabling them to present their businesses to potential buyers in its best possible condition.
The business owner is taken through the following areas in preparation of a sale:
- Business and financial information
- Historical
- Future projections
- SWOT
- Demand & competitor analysis
- Management succession
- Employee retention
- Third party relationships
- Intellectual property
- Premises & equipment
- Business documentation
