Selling Strategically: Unleashing Maximum Value in your Business Exit

Hi Welcome to ValuationPodcast.com - A podcast and video series about all things related to business and valuation.  My name is Melissa Gragg, and I’m a financial mediator and business valuation expert in St. Louis Missouri. 

Today we are speaking with Channing Hamlet located in San Diego, CA. He’s a managing director of Objective Capital Partners, a leading investment banking and valuation firm serving the lower middle market, specifically companies with an enterprise value of $20-$75 million. Hamlet leads the transaction execution of the investment banking practice, and concurrently operates as the head of the business valuation practice. 

Questions discussed:
1. What key elements should business owners consider when strategically planning their exit for maximum value?
2. How far in advance should one start planning for a business exit?
3. How important is market analysis in determining the optimal time to sell a business?
4. What strategies can business owners employ to enhance the value of their business before putting it on the market?
5. Are there specific areas or aspects of a business that buyers typically find most valuable?
