The Consequences of Not Preparing Your Business for Sale

Failing to adequately prepare your business for sale can have serious implications for your financial future, including:

Lower business valuation: An unprepared business may be perceived as less attractive to potential buyers, leading to a reduced valuation and potentially leaving money on the table.

Unfavourable payment terms: Without proper preparation, you may be forced to accept less favourable payment terms, which can negatively impact your financial security.

Difficulty selling: A business that isn't properly prepared for sale may struggle to find a buyer, potentially forcing you to delay your retirement or the next chapter of your life.

Reduced quality of life: If you're unable to sell your business for the desired amount, you may need to cut back on spending during your retirement or make other lifestyle adjustments to accommodate a smaller nest egg.
