I want to talk about a little issue we're facing in our company that is a business valuation calculator. Many people look at tools and real estate such as Zillow or look at Kelly blue book of cars and think"Why don't you have a calculator for business valuations?
You've been doing this for a long time, and the reality is we'd love to. Problem is it's hard. There are some really good baselines, like earnings and revenue, and we could discuss guidelines and what that looks like. What makes it so hard to do is you can have two businesses that have the same revenue and earnings, and they are worth significantly different multiples. Literally two, three X one another, and barely even far apart. That's due to intangibles.
There's a myriad of aspects to the business of a company - intellectual propertyand defensibility software, and so on that can create an extremely complex issue that just asking what's your income and how much are you worth? this hypothetically. Now we're working with this issue. It's probably a little late to discuss the issue, but we're currently working with an incredible company to resolve this issue, and we're going to find a solution in the near future. However, in the meantime, if you have any questions about how do you improve the value of your business or what your business is worth, then why don't you contact us by calling Freedom Factory. We're looking forward to talking with you in the near future.
How to prepare my business to sell

The first thing you need to do is get your home in order to prepare your business for selling. Also, obtain two or three years worth of tax of tax documents.
Financials and then put them together. Take them to your accountant and have ready for. Second, if you haven't put together an operations manual, this is an ideal time to do so.

When are we going to launch it? It's all about the current tax environment. How can I recast my financials? And what I mean by that is really straightforward.

A fancy way to describe all the money that your, that your business creates during the process of filing tax returns. It's a game of minimization you think? Tax evasion is not legal.

Is it the right moment to sell my company?
This is an extremely important topic and when is the right time to sell your company? This one is a bit more art than it does science. And ultimately it's kind of an assessment of your knowledge. We're outside. This is my backyard. mountain house , and it's a bit of my favorite place.
The first thing I'll suggest to you is get an escape. Take a break from the workplace. Get out of the commute whether with your family or out. You must now find a place that you can go, whether you love to fish or ski or go to the mountains or go to the beach , and whatever simply go there and switch your place of residence and go to a place that you feel really comfortable.
Think of your company. Then I take a look and then analyze it using three questions. The first is, am I here and am I clear? Are I actually in my business? Are I doing my best to serve my company or is my business serving me? And I think it's too short to be living where you are serving your business. Your company is your personal road for more freedom and prosperity.
And the way I define freedom is fairly easy - doing whatever you like, whenever you desire, and as often as you'd like, with whom you want. If you are in love with what you're doing and you consider, God, this is amazing, and I am there and I'm clear and I'm doing exactly what I'm supposed in the way I view selling businesses for fellow entrepreneurs, then that's awesome.
It's not the time to sell your company. If you're unsure about that, I would consider a bit more, and I would dive in and say, do I have the right vision? Are I able to see clearly? vision of where I am going?
I'm thinking of taking my business in the next one, two, three, or maybe or even in five years? What should I do in order to resolve it and feel great and confident that I've achieved what I've done? Now, if your business is growing by 40% per year or 50% a year, you probably have an eye-opening vision. You're probably doing really well and you probably feel in flow. However it's possible that you've grown at 5% over the last five years, then it's slightly more challenging, and maybe you can find someone who does it better than you.
Whenever my business is growing at 5%, I'm looking to sell. I'm thinking, okay. I'm looking for an operator. My style is more of a strategic person. And how do we focus on really creating something that's incredible, and you're on point and on purpose However, the rate of growth is a good indicator of this.
And the final thing is that you've accomplished what you were born to accomplish if, when you started your company, when I began my business brokerage business, i was aware that I wanted to alter the way that entrepreneurs buy and sell their businesses. I've started three of the largest brokerages. I hired, one of them, or I've acquired them to get the people, and I've created a more efficient market. And that's what I set out to accomplish when I arrived here.
But if you left your current job and thought about this for a while and then decide to leave, would you feel happy or would you feel like you didn't complete the task you were there to complete. When I look back on it and I say that's fine, is my business serving me. Are I focused and clear each day?
Do I have any remaining tasks to accomplish and do I have a fresh set of ideas to really implement that idea? These are the things which will help you figure it out. It's an imprecise science, however in the end, it's a gut check. Which are your thoughts? Are you convinced that it's time to sell your business?
Since, if I ever think about selling my business in six months, it's too late. If you have other questions on this or something else we would consider it our pleasure to assist with your questions here at Freedom Factory. We're waiting for you to give us a call.
