Exit with equity!

When it comes to selling a business, most business owners don't know what their business is worth, if it will sell or how to get started on the process. They don't get the full value or just close the business.

It doesn't need to be like that. It should be your biggest payday ever! In this workshop you will:
* Learn how to put a value on your business
* Know steps to increase the value
* Get tools and checklists to keep you going
* One on one consult at a time to suit you

worry and stress

You're possibly worried because you've invested blood, sweat, tears and years of your life into building your business. You've looked after your staff and provided for them. Now you are relying on selling your business to retire or move on to the next project and you don't know how you can exit your business or what you can get for it.

Discover everything you need to know and do to give yourself options around when and how much to sell for.

G'day. John here. I want to tell you how we failed to sell our business and then made 25% more!

Some years ago, I had a leadership management training business and at the seven-year point, I decided it was time to think about exiting. I merged my business with another business and the owner and I became partners in the new entity. We set a goal to exit with equity in three years.

After the three years we decided to try and sell and came up with a value for the business. We put it on the market and tried to sell the business ourselves. After a six-month emotional roller coaster, which was very unpleasant, we failed to sell the business.

I told a good friend of mine, who had bought, built and sold a lot of businesses what had happened and he referred us to his recommended business broker. The broker told us selling a business is a process and you need to be ready and stick to the process. He also added, "You need to get the price right and by the way, you've priced your business too low."

We listed the business with him, added 25% to the price, followed his process and sold the business for the full price. We happily paid the broker's fee! It would have cost us a great deal more if we had sold ourselves not knowing what we were doing.

As a result of this experience, I realised how little most business owners know about valuing their business, how to have it ready for sale and what is involved in the sale process. I decided to use this experience to niche my coaching services.

Shortly after the sale, the broker who sold our business offered me training and a job as a broker with their firm. Over the next twelve years as a business broker, I sold many different types and sizes of business. Experience which I now use with all my clients.

What previous attendees & clients have said:

I attended John’s “get your business ready for sale” course and this was extremely beneficial  as it was a lot more complicated than I expected. After the course John worked as my coach to prepare my company for sale over an 18 month period. When the time came to list I was fully prepared and achieved a very satisfying result. I cannot thank John and his BOTA group enough for the support and guidance.

Whether you're just getting started with your business or already thinking about an exit, John's workshop will give you the right information to consider to ensure the whole process goes smoothly. Well worth it! It covers a range of issues often missed by business owners. As they say "a business worth selling, is a business worth keeping", so even if you're NOT interested in selling, I highly recommend attending one of these workshops because it will open your eyes to new opportunities. It will help you get out of the "job" you've created for yourself, think like a real entrepreneur and build something that works for you without you being present all the time. - Jurgen Van Pletsen

I was looking to sell my drive thru coffee business and had no idea where to begin... Luckily, John helped me understand the process, going above and beyond with his level of detail. His support allowed me to make a quick and profitable sale. I couldn't have done it without his help! Thanks so much John - Patrick Drew, Former Owner Of Drive Through Coffee Business

We had a wonderful time working with John. He took our naive selves under his experienced wing and kindly, patiently and with mature expertise guided us to a successful sale of our small business. I would recommend anyone to work with John Denton. Catherine and Willow Francis - Now sold up and in to a new business!
