One of entrepreneurs’ standard desires is attaining the freedom to work when and where they want. Selling and exiting your business is a viable option, but it requires extensive due diligence and a systematic process to execute effectively. How can you source and finalize optimal acquisitions?
According to seasoned M&A advisor Todd Taskey, the buyer acquires 100% of the business in an ideal transaction while the seller maintains equity in the new company. This can be accomplished through a private equity acquisition or by partnering with a company that specializes in your industry. Before executing any deal, Todd emphasizes maintaining your organization’s quality by implementing processes to systematize operations and finances.
