What are you in business for?

If you read my piece on Leadership - this was the starting point. Why did you go into business?

As the business grows, this question, I feel becomes even more important. IT will be the driver behind the vision for the business.

You must understand how the business will deliver value to you, not only in the short term, but in the long term also.

Is it your intention to;

1. Sell the business at some future time to realise financial value

2. Handover the business to your children to realise ongoing financial security for the family

3. Pass the business into the hands of your team to reward them for their hard work

There are many other ways that you can 'exit' the business. I suggest that you need to have a clear idea, sooner rather than later, of your preferred choice.

Why is this important? Because, dependent upon your choice, you will need to take a specific path with your business as it grows.

Realising value at exit is an emotional experience. Over the years, you have toiled and put in many hours of effort. You will have made many sacrifices and taken risks, some calculated, some not. You will have some idea as to the value that you place on all of this effort and during the 'exit' process, someone will start to tell you that this perceived value is too high - it always happens.

One way that you can ensure that you don't lose out at this stage is to prepare for that eventuality. By working through the activities that I cover here and within the FREE information that we provide via this website and within the Programmes that we offer, you will have all of the information to hand that will justify your valuation.

This, in itself will be worth 1000's times more than any investment that you make at this stage.
