We have experience working with thousands of buyers and understand the types of questions they will have, and where they will perceive risk.
SWOT
What are the strengths that make your business appealing to a buyer? Do you have a strategic advantage in your market? Has your company been in business for a number of years through good and bad economic events? Do you have a highly diverse and loyal customer base? Have you developed trade secrets or IP?
What are the perceived weaknesses a buyer might be concerned about when considering buying your business? Is your equipment outdated? Do you have a high employee turn over? Is your business in decline? By identifying these perceived risks early on, we work to understand why, and to build a clear story around these risks, as well as to proactively identify solutions the buyer can consider.

When a buyer is purchasing a business, they want to know what opportunities for market growth will be available to them? What are the positive external factors which your business benefits from? Does your industry have positive growth projections? Is there a change in market structure that is creating new opportunities for growth? Has a new customer base recently begun to find a need for your product?
Above all, most buyers will be concerned with the perceived risks affecting your business and your market segment. In this case, it is important to proactively document determine threats to your market. Is your business affected by international trade policy? Is your market segment being disrupted by new technology or business model? Have the tastes or preferences of your customers changed?
Profile Ideal Buyer
What does the business need to grow? Based on the risks/challenges that have been identified, what buyer is best suited to meet these challenges? What synergies are available and which buyer will realize the most value?
