Action plan

Good preparation has a positive effect on the value of your company, and it also prepares you mentally for a possible sale. Furthermore, potential buyers prefer companies that are strongly substantiated and well presented. That is why it is essential to prepare thoroughly for the sale.

Start with the basics: map out your company’s activities and processes, business model, financial achievements, organizational structure and the current value of the company in detail.

Once this business analysis is done, you can look into opportunities for optimization so that you can increase the saleability of your company and maximize its value.

After drawing up an action plan, you can start putting these optimizations into practice. When all the improvements have been made, your business will be worth more!
