Ellen McIlhenny - “The Smart and Savvy Business Exit”
PROFIT RADIO..."Grow With Us" Introduction Hi I am Ellen McIlhenny, the Host of “The Smart and Savvy Business Exit”. As I have mentioned before I spent several years as the CFO of a company that sustained rapid growth for a period of about ten years. Part of that was organic and part was through acquisition. This gave me a front row seat on the process of evaluating a company to determine the asking price. I learned a lot during that time. One of the most important things I learned was the importance of preparation on the part of the seller. The due diligence the buyer conducts after a letter of intent is issued is a comprehensive process to ascertain whether the company was fairly presented. This not only refers to the financial statements but every aspect that contributes to the value of the business. We are going to talk today about why it is so important an internal due diligence be conducted. Doing this could mean tens or hundreds of thousands of additional dollars in your pocket. Listen>Apply>Engage Show Objectives By the end of our time together I hope you will understand the importance of preparation through an internal due diligence when preparing your company for sale.
