When value advisors tell you what your business is worth, they’d better be telling you a range.

A wide range.

Nobody can give you any closer estimate without knowing a lot about your business.

For many of them, the high-end number is the one floated in front of you to get you excited about listing your business for sale. The low-end number is the one they’ll come back to say “well, I told you it could be arrange” when nobody bites at the high end (and they won’t).

One of the key steps in Phase I of the Business Value Booster Method is a realistic self-assessment.

Check out the Starter Kit on this website, and then you’ll have access to a calculator that can give you a realistic range of values between a legitimate “best in class” and the 87 percent of owners who will be unable to sell their businesses.

Then you’ll be able to start work on determining where you fall in this gap and how to bridge it.
