To our clients and friends:
GIE+EXPO and Landscapes 2018 were hugely successful. We enjoyed seeing many of you there. We thought the format changes and the new hotel were great. I only regret being so busy we missed see a lot of folks.
The market continues to be strong. As always, if you are ready to discuss the sale or acquisition of a lawn or landscape business, we would welcome the opportunity to talk. Give us a call or email.
We plan toi attend the NALP Leaderw
The Exit Checklist
To successfully exit your business, you have to be able to answer two questions:
- Is your business ready to be sold?
- Are you ready to sell your business?
Those are two very different questions.
You see a lot of material on preparing your business for sale. We write and speak on that topic frequently.
The second question is more complicated and often less straight-forward. Yet it is at least equally important.
Our friends at the Value Builder Builder Score have prepared a new white paper entitled The Exit Checklist which serves as a self-assessment tool to help you know if you are ready to sell your business.
We'd be happy to send you a copy. Click on the button and we'll send it to you immediately.
