    How to Avoid M&A Dealkillers When Selling Your Business

    Studies have estimated that more than 50% of all M&A transactions do not achieve their expected value or never close. Even if those stats are remotely accurate, the results are disheartening because no business owner wants to go through the time, expense, and emotional drain of trying to sell their company only to experience a deal falling apart. At TobinLeff, we pride ourselves on helping our clients get their M&A transactions closed on their terms. In this podcast, four of our partners — David Tobin, Bruce Bishop, Chuck Gottschalk, and Mary McKinney — share strategies and action steps to help avoid deal killers or reductions in purchase prices. Some of the topics discussed include: How to set realistic expectations on value and deal terms How to get in front of potential weaknesses and deal killers How to package and present your value proposition so buyers know what they are buying and see value How to approach the process from a position of strength How to perform reverse due diligence to qualify buyers and be confident that visions and values align How to control the due diligence process How to make sure lawyers and accountants keep the deal on track How to minimize deal fatigue and keep yourself and your team energized through the process

    What Is An Exit Plan, and Why Do I Need One?

    Nearly 100% of agency owners believe that an Exit Plan is an important element for their future financial security, but only 15% actually have a written Exit Plan in place. At TobinLeff, we believe that the most important explanation for this disconnect may be the most basic one of all: while the idea of an Exit Plan seems to make sense, most agency owners don’t really know what an Exit Plan is. For additional information on how to sell your company from a position of strength, visit our resources page.
