Are you optimizing your business to maximize it’s value?
Will your business be ready to sell when you are?
Do you know the steps to take now to enhance the value of your business?
Whether you are ready to sell your business now, in 1-2 years, or you are in it for the long haul, you should always be looking at your business for ways to improve the operations, sales and productivity, thereby enhancing profitability and value.
Why Should You Focus on Building Your Company’s Value?
Building your company’s value to its maximum potential serves your interests in several ways:
1. You can enjoy the improved income generated by your improved operations
2. You can improve your work/life balance, freeing you up to work ON the business and not IN it
3. You have de-risked the business in numerous ways, thereby making the business more attractive to buyers
4. Should you wish to exit the business, you are ready to do so and achieve an optimal sale price
5. Should unanticipated circumstances arise leading you to consider a sale – maybe an unsolicited offer or an unforeseen personal event – the business is ready to be sold at an optimal price.

How The Value Builder System™ works
Through a careful examination of over 63,000 businesses, The Value Builder System™ has developed an algorithm that evaluates businesses with regard to eight key drivers of business value. This evaluation is based on the answers provided in a short 12-minute Value Builder Score questionnaire, after which you immediately receive your results for each driver. With that information, we can target the areas of your business where we can make the greatest impact on its valuation.

What people are saying
I could not recommend Alan highly enough for any business owner looking to expand their leadership and managerial skills. Throughout the term of our meetings, Alan showed constant care and interest in every aspect of my work and responded to my challenges with logical and practical advice. His advice was invaluable and helped me develop my communication, problem-solving and decision-making skills. These skills put my managerial skills years ahead of where they would have been having I not been mentored by Alan. I also found the online modules informative in highlighting the specific areas in my business that needed improving for the overall health of the company, as well as aiding its selling prospects in the future.
These online modules helped me look beyond the short term results of my work and drew my attention to how to develop my business for the best return in the long run. I looked forward to our weekly meetings and, by the end of our term, Alan felt like an old friend who I could trust with anything. After our time together, I understand the value of having a mentor who can guide you through the toughest challenges of running a small business. Thank you Alan for all of your attention, time and dedication, and for making me a stronger leader and manager.
